I've been trying get a feeling for how McVay will be lining up the Rams Offense by formation. He is known for his use of two TE sets but it appears when passing he only uses mostly 0 TE or 1 TE formations. Looking at the TE formations the Skins and McVay had success throwing using 2 TE sets with a 73.6 completion percentage and 10.4 YPA but, a very limited 87 attempts. The majority of passes came with 0 or 1 TE sets 205 to 260 attempts and 62 to 69.6 completion percentages. The YPA were very similar at 7.5 to 7.8. An overwhelming majority of TDs came with 1 TE on the field with 14.
We can't know the exact formation nor when the throws happen just from these numbers here. I'm going to assume that with 2 TE run formation McVay surprises defenses with some throws and has great success. I always like keeping defenses honest by doing the opposite of what they expect at times.
What I came away with here is that Higbee and Everett on the field together in run sets with some highly successful passing attempts. Like the rest of the league the 3 and 4 WR sets get the bulk of the passing attempts, yards and TD passes.
Thoughts.
