OMG, Memerunner with another badass Sean McSLAY video. Check it out:

How many times was Kyler sacked by the field? Literally.

That type of shit is what can happen when the defensive front has good rush lane discipline. Murray didn't have wide open escape lanes to choose from on every dropback and we felt the difference.

Remember how much shit Jim Everett took cause of his dive. I mean this guy feels someone's breath and he digs a hole.

I've said numerous times that Noteboom had an awful game.

It's a pet peeve when complex issues are reduced to the most recent convenient excuse. I don't buy that Stafford looked off solely because of Noteboom. Stafford has looked off nearly every game this season except for one or two games. In the first half of the season it was understandable b/c the OL was in tatters. Then the OL regained full health and he's still looked off the majority of games.

The excuses are annoying because they're covering up real problems.

He looked great in SoFi, against the Bills. That was the first game that most felt the Oline had come together as a unit and the team played to its fullest capability.

Then they had the rainy Niner game and frigid Jets game. Most expected that once back home, the offense would more likely resemble the offense that played the Bills.

It didn’t. So what was the difference? For starters, Havenstein couldn’t play and Noteboom played in his stead. Noteboom played poorly and Stafford was under constant pressure. Especially on the right side.

The defensive scheme employed by the Cardinals is one that’s held the Rams offense in check in other games. Stop the run and blitz often. McVay didn’t really call many plays to counter that scheme for some reason.

Also, the Cardinss as La offensive strategies seriously limited the Rams opportunities because of the amount of time they controlled the ball.

So, with limited offensive opportunities, a ten yard holding penalty (3x) is crippling, especially since the offense never got enough time yo get in any kind of rhythm. Constant pressure in Stafford’s face didn’t help either.

Like I said. Noteboom was not solely responsible for the poor play of the offense, but he played a big part in it.

I’ve explained it enough times. I’m done talking about it. You can reply. I don’t care.

You're right. I forgot about a few games. I thought he looked sharp against Buffalo and Minnesota. I forgot about New England which was very good and Philly which was ok.

Most of the other games, he's had long periods where things seemed off.

lol -Kyler the hedgehog.

Rams have won 5 straight and 9 of 11. Incredible!!!

That said, the O is more inconsistent than expected, to blame this on one player (a backup even more so) makes no sense to me.
A lot of different things. McVay was a front runner, considered better at start of game (scripted plays) than later in games (adapting at halftime). The narrative on this has changed this season.

Rams fall behind and comeback this year. Impressive.

For whatever reason, Rams O has not yet hit their potential, and all that said, imagine if/when they do (playing like against Bills for 4 games), SB is possible for sure.
Great to know this.

If Noteboom were the issue, why not have a TE helping him, seems an easy enough fix.

 

[Allen2McVay]

Every once-in-a-while, I read a post that references McVay scripting plays. I don't think he does.

I could be wrong. I generally average being wrong 6-to-7 times a day.

I don't recall ever reading or hearing (in-game analysis) that Sean McVay scripts plays.

Did a quick internet search, and the only thing I found was an October, 2020 article which said the following:
'Jared Goff revealed an interesting fact about the Rams offense. Unlike most teams, they don’t script any plays to open the game or the second half. McVay just calls the plays he feels best about at the moment'

It's not a big deal but, without some reference, I would not assume that McVay's offense scripts plays.

There have been many references to all NFL teams scripting their first 15 (or so plays).
Obviously this makes no sense, each HC will game plan differently.

My comment was more on how narrative for McVay is changing from great offensive play caller to great HC (with similar traits to Tomlin).
Credit for some of Rams past O success is with Taylor, Lafleur, and others rather than McVay.
This is crazy talk just fun to follow

I thought Stafford really got nailed on that failed read option play on the goal line against the whiners. It brought back memories of Wolford getting injured on the same stupid call against the Cardinals. You would have thought McVay would have learned.

Stupidest play call this year might have caused whatever has been going on with Stafford since.

Yeah, injury is also a possibility for Stafford’s inaccuracy since that game.
