I was saying before the season started last year that if McVay didn't adapt to how Tavon plays, as a hybrid run/catch weapon a la 2015, then that's not even a criticism....McVay did not draft Tavon and had no obligation to adapt his system to what Tavon does. So no that's not "coach blame.":
Anyway he was productive in that role in 2015. Are you saying he won't be in Dallas in 2018?
I agree zn McVay didn't want to "change" his O just for TA and I don't blame him. IMO, McVay saw that TA wasn't a true WR, couldn't read D's very well, didn't win contested balls often enough and he already had a better slot guy in Kupp. He just was not a "catch" weapon at all IMO. As for a "Run" weapon, he seemed to go for the sidelines too often as well.
I now you didn't ask me but I don't think TA will be "productive in that role ala 2015" because Dallas isn't going to use him that way either based on the article I posted earlier.
LinkI don't see Dallas "adapting" their system for TA either. He will be a RB and ST'er down there.
#HelmetHornsMatter
“Well, the color is good, I like the metallic blue,” Youngblood recently said while laughing, via NFL Journal. “The horn is terrible. It looks like a ‘C.’ When I first saw it on the logo I honestly thought it was a Charger logo.
“Now when I see it on the helmet, it just isn’t a ram horn. There is no distinct curl like a mature ram horn. I don’t know how the Rams could get that wrong. That is your symbol and it has been for what? Seventy years or more? Longer than I have been alive? It’s just not us, it’s not the Rams.”---Mr. Ram Jack Youngblood
