I agree, these are going to be hurdles to work with. So it starts here in practice and preseason so they are prepared to deal with it during the season. I like the idea of specific preparation going into a preseason game....see what you do well and what you struggle with. Then work the struggles harder.
I hope that most of the year they will not require and unbalanced approach later in the games to where the offense is required to throw. We are too inexperienced to handle that consistantly.
For an effective offense, they need to keep the defenses guess, so they can't pin their ears back so to speak.
So ultimately...yeah..."stay tuned...."

As stated by me many times, the QB & by extension a teams true ability to pass the ball effectively to win games comes down to two factors, both predicated on throwing the ball WHEN THE DEFENSE KNOWS YOU HAVE TO THROW THE BALL: 1) Can you convert 3rd & longs. And 2) Can you move the throw the ball in the final 2 minutes of a half? Of the game?
The above two situations have as many ch or more to do with who wins football games than most any other situations.
You can see already that around the above situations McVay will be able to scheme things to help Jared produce and Goff has shown the ability thus far to function well in PS games.
Can Goff drop back repeatedly late in halves & games and make correct decisions with the ball? Get it out on time with accuracy under duress?
These are his and McVay's next big challenges. Stay tuned...
