Rams 'not scaling back offense' for Jared GoffAlden Gonzalez
ESPN Staff Writer
THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. -- Leading up to games this season, Los Angeles Rams offensive coordinator Rob Boras would sit down with Case Keenum and Jared Goff, ask for their favorite plays within an assortment of different categories throughout the playbook and prepare separate call sheets based on the rankings the quarterbacks provided. The only difference now is Goff will be the one starting, with Keenum backing him up.
The Rams will tinker their offense to Goff's taste Sunday, but they will not dumb it down for the rookie.
"It's the same amount of plays, the same package," Boras said. "We trust with where he is mentally."
"We're not scaling back," Rams quarterbacks coach Chris Weinke added. "This kid understands what we're trying to do on offense, he's able to execute it. He had a good day of practice [on Wednesday], we expect him to have another good day on Friday. In terms of our approach as a staff, putting a game plan together, we're obviously smart enough to say, 'Hey, listen, we know what this kid does well, and we're going to lean on those things.' But we're not going to scale back for him. We don't need to."
