The only exception I have with this article is the assumption made about the "great" offensive line. I still believe this line is "functional" when the scheme protects them with runs and quick hitting passes but struggled when protecting long developing passes and have been particularly vulnerable against top defensive lines. Perhaps McVay and Stafford can creatively progress the scheme to stretch the field quicker, but unless they can do better at preventing penetration into the backfield, there will continue to be too many negative plays to extend drives that ensure a more balanced attack that leads to a more effective running game.
I happen to think the OL will be solid. But you never know till you see them. IMO you may see it a little differently from me but your concerns are reasonable ones.
