The Rams tried some quick stuff last night. Screens to Gurley and the WR's but the defense was just sitting on them. No chance for success because there was no element of surprise or fear of anything deep. The o-line hasn't been great but I still say they have been functional. Defenses just don't respect the Rams ability to hit the intermediate and deep passes consistently.
Anyone know who's responsibility it is to recognize and call protection against a blitzing DB from the outside? I don't think that is the o-line's responsibility and I think that is some of the hidden issues that the blocking has been suffering. I don't think Goff is seeing everything clearly and getting guys into favorable positions.
They were sitting on many plays , maybe Peters could answer that .....or just maybe Weddle could ask one of his boys ??
