Rams are 12th. Under 60%.
Should be better.
Receivers are too small and tight ends are way too soft.
Are the receivers smaller than the GSOT receivers? And who was the GSOT's productive redzone TE?
Honestly, redzone offense does not boil down to having TEs or bigger receivers.
It's entirely a play design/play calling thing.

Roland Williams was the GSOT TE. He was very good in the red zone in 1999. After he left the TE unit as a whole was less effective. Issac Bruce was pretty good in the red zone too, he ran very disciplined routes.
Thanks for the correction on RW. My point being though that redzone efficiency is not dependent on having a "redzone TE." Or WR. It's playcalling and design. In Washington in 2016 McVay had both Reed and Davis and yet that team was 30th in redzone efficiency. Last time the Rams were top 10 in redzone efficiency was 2006, when they ranked 8th. Their TEs were Klopenstein and Byrd. They had one TD each. So far Higbee has that many (1) in 2018 yet they're already better ranked (12th) than Washington was in 2016.
