I’m not sure

I mean I would have to look.

But here’s what I know. The Rams run so much play action and many of their deep shots come off of play action. So as LMU93 mentioned the Rams should be able to scheme some of these deep shots with all the motion and pa they incorporate. But we haven’t seen that at all this year

Earlier in this thread LMU93 posted 3 videos of examples of Kupp, Woods, and Reynolds as deep threats. Each one of those deep throws came off of play action

[ramsrule.com]

The Rams don’t do a ton of traditional drop back passing. They didn’t even in the comeback against Buffalo. I have noticed that when they just line up (let’s say shotgun for example) and the defense knows they are passing the Rams aren’t nearly as successful passing the ball. Until last Sunday I saw improvement there.

Very much like the 49ers the Rams seem to struggle in pass pro and successful passing without play action.

That’s not to say they are never successful but I think they should be much stronger at it than they have been. And this has been consistent under McVay

It goes back to statements I have made before that sometimes the Rams are too reliant of scheme.

I hope that answers your question. What are your thoughts?

if you had a WR or two that excelled at running those kinds of routes it might help

So let’s say you’re right that the OL can’t sustain blocks on 7 step drops and you have WRs that aren’t true deep threats, then yup that combination would not be a good one

Very true, that combo platter would not be a good one. Let me ask you Speed, in the limited times McVay has called a 7 step drop, do you see Goff getting adequate time? I'm not being argumentative, it's an honest question as I consider you a well-reasoned poster here. From my chair it doesn't seem like he does and I'm not sure a burner would help with that.
