Coen said. “Then you started to see, when they hit that a little bit of that lull there for a few games, them truly get back to running the football and getting a little bit more of that identity back until they were really comfy in terms of getting (to), ‘Alright, this is who we are, this is what we need to do to be successful moving forward.'”

Doing what Stafford does best, great throws, but limited . . . with a strong rin attack (does not have to be 100% great, but STRONG, not quitting on it. McVay weakness was quitting on the run game too early, we saw it for years esp. post Gurley.
And during playoffs McVay called plays well, kept Stafford from hero ball, ran the ball, but still called plays that Stafford can shine -- and didn care if it was an INT, as long as it was not a crazy INT for a pick 6.
That coupled with a good D, and good rush...no, great pass rush---Rams won it all. All it took was a simple bit a clarity . . . run it enough to keep defense honest . . .
