And this is also bothering Mahomes and KC, and the Bills and San Diego as well.
what is it that's bothering them? These cover 2 shells that alot of the league is running. And why is it bothering teams? esp teams like the Chiefs and Rams? Because they like explosive plays. Mahomes and Stafford want explosive plays. OCs want explosive plays.
The titans literally dared the Rams to run the ball and throw it underneath and McVay and/or Stafford refused. I guarantee you if they did, the Titans make adjustments and that would have opened the deep part of the field. But McVay and Stafford refused to kill the titans by a thousand paper cuts, the titans kept the pressure up and then it was too late and they had no choice.
Good coaches and OCs take what defenses give you. Stop forcing what isn't there.
it's what makes Manning and Brady elite. they take what defenses gave them. they rarely forced anything.
I don't care how fast you are, if you are running deep with double coverage or singled up in zone with deep safety help, you aren't catching anything. you need to force those safeties up. short passing and running the football. So no, this isn't on the wrs or their lack of speed.
