Offensive inconsistency remains biggest question mark for Rams...

The common sentiments we’ve all been hearing about the Rams, especially around their bye week, have been that this team needs to find a way to play up to their potential on more consistent week-to-week basis. Their defense is currently second in the NFL in points allowed per game with 19.0 and total yards allowed with 291.9 per outing.

On the flip side, the offense is ranked 21st in points scored per game with 24.1 despite also being 6th in the NFL in total offensive yards per game with 396.4.

The defense has played well enough to make up for the lack of fireworks on offense, but that trend cannot last the whole season. Per Rams ESPN beat writer Lindsey Thiry, the offensive inconsistency is still the Rams’ biggest question mark heading into the second half of the season.

Here’s what she had to say about the matter early Wednesday morning

“Can the offense produce at a consistently high level? The Rams entered a Week 9 bye with a sour taste in their mouths after Brian Flores and the Dolphins effectively shut down Goff and the Rams’ offense. Flores’ scheme pressured Goff into several errant passes — if he was able to get the ball off at all. Going forward, the Rams must find a way to solve the zero pressures the Dolphins presented, knowing it’s likely future opponents will use that game as a blueprint to slow Sean McVay’s scheme. Can Goff return to the level of play he demonstrated through the first five games of the season?”
