Yeah this is where I’m at. They went 99.5 yards and scored after this play. If we score, they likely get a return out to the 35-40 and only have to go 60-65 yards to score. Which they would’ve done.

This team has struggled in short yardage running situations for a couple years now. For all our success running the ball last year, Kyren and Corum were still in the bottom third of the league when running against stacked boxes. That’s why we were so pass happy in the low red last year. When teams load the box and try and stop the run, they usually can. In fact we lost the first SF game last year when we couldn’t pick up a yard trying to run it on 4th and 1. Jon Gruden was banging on the table last year for McVay to start using a fullback for short yardage running situations and I’m starting to think he’s right.

On obvious short yardage they struggle. To be fair, a lot of teams struggle when in a predictable run situation.

Watching the replays, he had the ball on his right side and got twisted and turned back. I didn't think he got in because the ball didn't move forward.

I said before that they needed to find someone besides Stafford to run the QB sneak.

No sweat - next year they'll draft a 6'4" white TE to do it. Don't have any of those laying around....

I look forward to seeing more of the Tight Ends being utiliized. What happened to Ferguson and Parkinson and the 13 personnel that no one could stop. The Rams could have used that size and muscle to bully the whiners IMO in the rush or the pass. Or at least I thougt they could.
 
I look forward to the rams not playing like the "rams" and show up. We have been making excuses for the last 4 years. Go Rams!

Looked short from this angle. The commentators have access to other cameras, I bet the teams do too. There's all-22 film out there, so there are multiple angles.

Same with the Stafford Run (sneak -lol). Sneaky- lol.

Have a different view of the Game !
It’s on SEAN MCVAY & he has to do a BETTER JOB. Like he SAID !! Agree

I don’t agree on the way THE WAY
- THE RAMS promoted The TEAM & THE NFL !! I say F” the niners,but then again they made me a FAN of there TEAM !! There interviews & players really showed a HUGE UNITY!!

I love The RAMS, but what a shame weather a WIN or LOSS-You can’t allow that Franchise moment to success over your ORGANIZATION!!

I guess if WE got those views at SOFI things might have been WORSE!! The EXTERMINATION just got WORSE!! The INFESTATION is going to be HORRIBLE unless THE RAMS WIN ALL !!

I take the HUMBLING EXPERIMENT might still benefit THE RAMS ?? Just maybe not DOWN UNDER!!

That said THE 49ers can still SUCK my BIG ROOSTER!!!

McVay talks about learning and he does of course, but, when Stafford was o-fer on sneaks last year why run one there?
Idiotic play call with your spindly legged QB.

I think those are on cables and I wonder if this stadium couldn’t do it?

J.B. Long said that MCG did not have overhead cameras during the broadcast...I listen on Sirius XM rather than the TV play by play.

So, no, they could not do it.

If we scored there we woulda lost 27-14. SF woulda had a 70 yard TD drive instead of 99. Because Shula was not gonna get away from the soft zone that let Purdy get rid of the ball quicker. Which negates the pass rush.

They signed corners who can play man coverage that woulda forced Purdy to wait longer and give the pass rush a chance to disrupt things. Instead he had them playing the perfect defense that plays into the 49ers strength.

On the subsequent drive by the Whiners, there were 7 runs and 4 passes.

Runs were - 0-yd run, 9-yard run, 14-yd run, 0-yd run, 18-yd run, 8-yd run and 2-yd run. 51 yards.

4 passes - 14-yd, 13-yd, 6-yd and 15-yd. 48 yards.

I know that the short passing is a pisser but 7.3 per carry rushing sucks and it's always like that with Frisco.

I don’t ever want to see that playcall again with Stafford

The bigger issue is why is it so difficult for the Rams to get 1 yard when the defense knows we’re running it.

because they use an insert block by a TE and point right to where they are running. No fake ever unless it is a bubble screen which is more well known and expected. When McVay was calling plays in Washington he was well known for FGs It has always been this way except last year when they started using 13P and Devante.

Because this offense lacks physicality in some areas as well as speed in all areas?

Piss poor play call. Period. Doesn't matter at this point.

I hear you on that play call,but there were a lot of turning points.

In all honesty Mcvay played his hand WRONG going into the game.
I say that because of Myles Garrett & Mattew Stafford.

First - Matthew Stafford seemed LOST !! I’m going I’ve the game &
to say THE RAMS weren’t ready is misleading!!!
1. The RAMS defense STOPPED the miners on there FIRST 3 drives to a FIELD GOAL.
2.1st. Drive in 3rd down Stafford has to throw beyond the sticks.Getting tackled 2 yards behind to Puka is a JOKE !!
3.The 2nd drive was a TD.
4.After Lake had an INT. The Rams were up 7-3 with 9 plus minutes.Why did Stafford go draw & changed the play on 1st. Down ?? Then a 9 minute mark he has 2 plus seconds to throw a pass 2nd & 10. Kyren is WIDE open on play action??? In the flat & even started to comeback for the ball.
Stafford hesitated & Puka was open straight in front of him.No DE & Parkisian was on the hash. ONE DEFENDER on BOTH PLAYERS!!
—WTF - Stafford ????

Just watching the game in full now,but The RAMS were in control early.
 
The other part is Myles Garrett.If The RAMS are in Australia any part of getting a practice or 2 Mcvay knows if Myles is ready ?

It sucks he is Hurt !! Plus The RAMS once I finish the game will realize it’s more than that.It’s preseason & STARTERS are not in FOOTBALL GAME SHAPE !! It’s a difficult & more physical feeling & speed.

—Add 13 personnel was starting to go good & The Rams were ready.Blake was starting to break off some EXCELLENT RUNS
