OF - SKILLs To Pay The Bills
The 2020 Rams offense represents both an evolution of McVay's scheming prowess (outside and inside zone runs) with a throwback element of... the screen game, replacing an over-reliance on play action.
Notes:
P.S. I will answer constructive criticism or requests for alternate scenarios.
Let's Go Rams!

- The offense of the Rams will incorporate a lot of moving pieces but ultimately comes down to feeding Woods, Kupp and Higbee.
- Akers will be utilized extensively in the screen game.
- Jefferson, although talented, will not play a significant role in this offense in his rookie year (barring injury to Kupp/Woods).
- Higbeast will force defenses to man the middle of the field, opening the boundaries. His numbers are conservative, representing statistical upside.
- Everett will play a gadget type role, making contributions in the red zone and TE screens.
- Reynolds, although experienced, will play a "jump-ball" type role in hopes that safeties stay honest. This role is not un-similar to Cooks 2019.
- I see a divergence in how Woods and Kupp will be used due to the departure of Cooks, as reflected in the Yards-Per-Reception (Y/R) and Catch Percentage (Ctch%) differences. Although, McVay will look to balance their Targets (Tgt) overall.
- Goff could potentially throw another 20-40 balls. If so, his numbers will get WORSE, not better.
Notes:
(In terms of the RUN game: I expect Akers to have +200 carries at 4.5 per. / Brown ~50 carries at 4.0 per / Henderson does not translate to the NFL game, sorry.)
(Goff's numbers were backed into based on the assumed production of the skilled players. The 2/1, TD/Int ratio, is conservative, representing a potential upside in passer rating and WIN percentage.)
