I noticed and have read/heard a few places that the Rams - and specifically, Hill and Davis - failed to recognize "obvious" blitzes on Sunday, leading to the Rams doing exactly what the blitzing D wanted them to do.
Seems like it's the QB's responsibility to recognize bad matchups - blitzes and the like - and audible into a better play, but was that it? I put this out to @CoachO and others more versed in actual game experience than I, how much of that is a guy like Wells needing to adjust protection calls at the line?
Also, I was under the impression that Hill would be better at diagnosing defensive looks and adjusting accordingly. Was I wrong? Was he better than I thought on Sunday? Is his veteran experience somewhat overstated or stunted by the fact that he's seen fairly limited gameday action during his career?
