The interior o-line played well overall. Demby the supposed weak link was fine. His inexperience showed at times but playing is the only way he's going to improve. Havenstein is a decent not good RT. I think some here questioned my pre-season concerns about Havenstein and going on record that IMO the Rams will replace him. I think these last two games showed why I feel the way I do.
There is a lot of talent on the Browns, but they need time to gel as a team. I'm glad we got them early in the season. Later in the season they might be tougher. The Rams beat a team that was hell bent on using the game to show the world they are no longer door mats. I think they are 2 years away from being where they want to be.
IMO the run game needs a new o-line blocking scheme. They need to play a better mixture of outside zone and gap to keep the defense guessing at what's coming at them. If not gap then inside zone. It will prevent what we saw tonight when the Browns sold out to stop that perimeter run game. This team should have primarily an inside, betweem the tackles, run game. It will make the play action and jet sweep more effective IMO.
McVay needs to design plays for the TE's. He's basically wasting 2 very good talents at TE. It will give Goff another option than forcing the ball to Cook, Woods and Kupp.
Just keep in mind this team both offense and defense are works in progress. They are in a continuous process of evolution. McVay simply needs to expand his offense by incorporating all his weapons into it.
