he of the 2 INTs, one returned for a TD:

"We just kept going with our game plan. Sure enough, they still never threw the ball downfield."

Factually, the Rams actually do throw downfield. But that quote shows the mindset other teams have of our offense.

It seems to me they don't believe Keenum can beat them with the downfield game enough to respect it.

And let them keep thinking that.

The stat from PFF I keep quoting says that the Rams are 4th in the league in the number of deep passes.

But...perceptions? That's their perceptions? They should try watching film. cool smiley

...

Oh, I'm sure the other team watches film. That's my point. They know the PFF stat. And after absorbing that info, they still feel that the best way to beat us is to overload the box. IOW, they don't respect the deep game despite the numbers.

Actually, they may respect the deep game but the deep shots you're speaking of are in the 6% range IIRC. IOW, even though that percentage is among the league high, it's not very often those real deep strikes happen. The issue is probably that they don't respect Keenum's intermediate game. Whatever it is they are disrespecting, they don't believe that he can lead a passing game potent enough to defeat them.

That's a problem.
