...when they are scoring 30+ points they are running it well. If they become pass heavy, they are of course able to score, but more bad things can happen (sacks, fumbles, INT's).
Goff can throw up incredible numbers like last year against TB in the 55-40 loss (45-68, 517 YDs, but 3 INT's and a lost fumble for a defensive TD for four turnovers). He was sacked twice and lost 27 yards. The Rams that game ran it 10 times for 28 yards. Even Patrick Mahomes can be turnover prone in that epic 54-51 MNF game he had 3 picks and two fumbles returned for TD's by Ebukam I believe.
The most impressive thing about the comeback at BUF was the fact the Rams continued to run even when they were down multiple scores. I think is surprised BUF at the time.
Shanahan is going to really emphasize runs this week, perhaps pulling out WR sweeps, runs designed to attack the Rams ILB's, etc. to steady the ship and try and win the game. Can the Rams stop the run? If so, they should pound SF....
