Ten Things I Liked About Week Fourteen

1. SPACE SUITS AND SOLAR SYSTEMS

When the Los Angeles Rams offense is mentioned one immediately sees jet sweeps, wide receivers blocking, and that good old fashion resounding sound, the outside zone. This version of the Rams is much more than that. They’ve continued to expand upon the run game and now the outside zone is a piece of it, instead of the staple the rest of their offense is built around.

Desperation breeds innovation. In the case of the Rams, building a top offense around Jared Goff breeds innovation. With a quarterback who struggles against the blitz and pressure, and doesn’t have the ability to carry an offense with his arm from the pocket alone, Sean McVay and his coaching staff have engineered a wide variety of vessels to craft easy offense for this football team.
