Core of Rams offense will remain the same – with new wrinkles added

Cameron DaSilva

When Sean McVay was hired by the Rams in 2017, he completely changed the offense. Los Angeles went from one of the worst teams in the league for years on that side of the ball to one of the best, helping to elevate the play of both Jared Goff and Todd Gurley.

His offensive scheme was unique and kept defenses on their toes with heavy usage of 11 personnel, pre-snap motion and lots of play-action passes. It seemed like teams may have begun figuring McVay out last season, but that won’t cause the fourth-year head coach to make wholesale changes.

The core of the Rams offense is expected to remain the same, but there will be new wrinkles – as there always are each year.

... WAAAAAAY overstated. Injuries - to Gurley and the OL - had much more to do with the relative demise of that offense (which was STILL 11th of 32 teams in points scored last year) than any defensive schematic issues did. At the end of the day, regardless of scheme, you need your RB to be able to elude, run away from, or run over the defender in his vicinity. You need OL players who can dominate the guys in front of them.

We'll see if the Rams have that this time around.

Very overstated. When your Oline is pushing people around and bullying at the POA, you can do what the 9ers did last year and run just about anyone back there. When our Oline was in it's heyday a few years back, we dictated the field. Without it? Everything falls apart. You can scheme against it for a bit, do this and do that, but when the line falters, the O falters. It was the first thing McVay shored up when he walked in the door. When McVay figures that out again, he'll stop being "figured out".

  Pretty good analysis. I have a couple of bones to pick, though.
