There was the 2017-2021 version.
And there was the 2022 version.
Which version will we see in 2023? Play calling? Run/pass balance? Game planning? Decisions on who to start and/or give snaps/targets to?
I will say that I’m VERY encouraged by three things I’ve seen so far in this offseason.
1. McVay’s willingness to offload nonproductive asst coaches. I believe 8 were fired or ‘allowed to leave’. That seems like a big number to me.
2. The hires so far seem well thought out and should be positive effects at needed position groups.
3. I am particularly impressed with the Lake and Pleasant hirings for Rams secondary. I now feel that those players will get maximum development opportunities AND that those 2 coaches will have a positive effect on Morris in terms of variation of aggressiveness and disguising schemes. If Snead can bring in a solid edge and CB then I think this D can be quite effective.
IOW, for this offseason? So far, so good.
The prodigy McVay may be back in the building. Fingers crossed.
