With Coach McVay having an off season to marinate on his 3 TE offensive sets it will be interesting to see what that looks like this coming season. One wrinkle that could be interesting is a 4 TE group with Nacua or Adams as the lone Receiver and no backs. Down by the goaline Nacua could carry the ball or run choice style routes from the backfield.
What are your ideas?

I threw the Puka in the backfield idea out and got lambasted for it.
That said, could see this down close, yeah.

Anything is possible. Funny you suggest 0 RBs. I was looking for Hunter to have a role this year.....I was going to say bigger role but he had absolutely no role last year. Curious to see if he gets some carries this year. Corum went from 58 his rookie year to 145 last year. Considering Hunter didn't get a carry last year, if he gets 40 carries or so, we might see a couple of long runs. If he gets carries early in the season and breaks one or two, it might increase the number he gets, which would really change the run game from a 2-headed beast to a 3 headed monster. Might even see McVay use some 2 back, 3 TE formations.
 
I like the idea of 13 personnel spread out like 11 personnel. We have some athletic tight ends that can get downfield. And they're all 6'5" or bigger. Not sure I'd run Puka down at the goal line with everything packed in. Unless its a sweep. Another wrinkle down there with him could be a sweep but maybe throwing to a tight end who got behind the packed in defense.

It's different. I hope McVay doesn't get too cute with any new ideas. I have expressed that I want to see a RB in the backfield inside the redzone. You have to have defenses respect the run. I would rather go with our two solid RBs near the goal line. Puka has done well on sweeps.

What makes the Rams 13 personnel so dangerous is they can run and pass out of it effectively. Not many teams are throwing the ball in 13 personnel and doing it at a high success rate. I don't think you can take the RB out and have the other team respect your run game and still be effective throwing the ball. Just IMO.

Last year the top 3 teams in the NFC all used 13 personnel more than the rest of the league—but they all used their own version.
Those teams were the Rams seahawks, and da bears.

I would think each one of those three teams are watching film of the other two for ideas.
