That was a great video. Would have never known how McVay tweaks plays to fool/trick the defense. That was amazing to see it broken down.

Yea that's what was great to see in detail. We know his plan entering a game will take advantage of certain matchups or weaknesses, but to see how he sets up certain plays within a game is pretty genius. Showing certain concepts a couple times just until they recognize what we're doing, then hits them with a counter punch that takes advantage of how theyre now defending that original concept. Just great stuff.

No shit. I'm sitting here laughing listening to it tbh. I mean it's always fun to see the Rams scheme fuckin teams up. But yeah lol.

The play he starts with. I could show you the exact same movement from previous years. In fact the Ravens probably stole the pre-snap motion from the Rams. That is more likely IMO. But the play succeeds because of the OL not allowing penetration like they did last season, simply not springing leaks. This guy is whipping up a hot fudge sundae of bullshit IMO.

People last year were like "oh shit the league figured out McVay." Then the linemen up front in 2020 start moving motherfuckers and people be like "OMG LOOK AT HOW BRILLIANT MCVAY'S ADJUSTMENTS WERE." Honestly the biggest difference I've noticed is more variety in run blocking types. Kromer is mixing it up with zone, power, even had Corbett on trap motion I mean that shit was awesome. But he didn't steal that shit from the Ravens either. That shit was already around, it's just that the OL are ready to take that next step now.

Yea while I def think we were doing this in '17 and '18, last year we didnt as much. I think this guy is pointing out how its become a staple for us this year as were 2nd in the NFL only behind the Ravens right now.

A Good breakdown of a few of the many ways Mcvay schemes up to beat a defense.

But suggesting we have the same personnel is factually incorrect. Our O-line is completely different then last year.

Why does it seem like nothing was working last year and everything this year? Healthy RB's and Oline.

Mcvay scheme is killing it, but scheme without personnel fails.

Great analysis, BTW. Although, he did slip up and blame Taylor Rapp for the Bills safety's mistake lol.

I can't blame him. Every receiver was getting a completion against rapp.
