McVay felt that Goff was holding the offense back. Not the OL, not the scheme.
Lol. Can you imagine him saying any different? Regardless of the truth.
Meanwhile if anyone thinks the Rams OL DIDN'T crash several times last year, then, they're weren't watching the games.
It was solid in several games but did crash in certain games and it was a bad thing when it did happen. For example the OL was no better on the goal line against Arizona with Wolford than they were the week before against Seattle, and that's in spite of Wolford missing on those downfield throws he mostly missed on. Stafford isn't going to do any different under those conditions--if anything he had a higher sack rate in Detroit, which was one of the many reasons they did not win much.
They have to fix the OL for Stafford as much as for any other qb and if McVay can't see it it's a fatal blindspot. It needs to be more consistently solid. That;s a football fact regardless what people want to say. Stafford playing behind a poor OL in Detroit certainly didn't do him any good, why repeat that mistake by pretending like the Rams OL is consistently solid when it wasn't.
