There is a bit of a question mark over the role of LA Rams’ offensive coordinator Kevin O’Connell, particularly due to the fact that one of his primary responsibilities upon his hiring was to work closely with former quarterback Jared Goff. How did that turn out in the end? Well, it ultimately led to a frustrated head coach Sean McVay insisting upon competition for the position before trading Goff and three draft picks to the Detroit Lions for veteran quarterback Matthew Stafford.
So what is the new list of duties?
Well, clearly working with Goff either did not help, or it accelerated the decision that Jared Goff was not the right quarterback for the very complex decision tree that overlays the LA Rams offense after each snap of the football.
