Here is where the logic fails.
If your not supposed to run because they stack the box and you'll just be "banging your head against the wall"
They why do you keep passing when they keep sacking your quarterback. Because eventually that became banging our heads against the wall.
The other part is... We never really tried. Yes, typically if they are going to tempt you to throw and not run, you typically throw. But not every time. You have to mix it up. You CAN NOT let them tee off on your QB because they know you have abandoned the run.
As the announcer said, the Rams became one dimensional.
Half the chess match in football is trying to keep them guessing.
