The rams came out in the second half and didn’t even try to score after midway thru the 3rd. McVay didn’t want to make Taylor look bad. Kupp could have broken the single game record the way he was balling out. He only had two catches in the second half.

I respect McVay not making him look bad, but I don’t believe in just not trying. Idk

A ton of assumptions on your part.
And now for my assumptions....
I think he was conservative to shorten the game and not give the Bengals an easy way back in.
Get to the bye week and get there as quickly (healthy) as possible.
Kupp finished with 220 yards.....another whole good game away from Flipper’s record. He would have need another 136 yards to reach his record.
A coach play calling to try and get a player a record like this sort of record is bad bad bad and something I would hope McVay is smart enough to not do.
Also, I would assume the Bengals changed their coverages on Kupp.
It was a solid win going into the bye week.
Enjoy it.
