You mean he refused to criticize Stafford on that play? Shocking.

Why would he criticize Stafford for that play? That is a shit happens play. He has thrown around people to more closely covered receivers and been successful many times. He has made many no look passes in critical moments and been successful. No body is complaining then. No, you take the very low percentage of failure with the many successes and move on, because he is going to try that play every time. You want him doing that shit.
 
"Love Kyren and fully understand what he does, that being said Corum has a different gear and is an awesome complement to KW. These guys can keep each other fresh and Coach needs to take advantage."

"... if you get Kyren and Corum rolling you make the pass game easier, especially with play-action."

^^^^ This^^^^ (y)(y)(y)

Called managing a game and in that case managing a lead. There was no need to make that risky throw in that situation. That's how teams lose games they shouldn't. Kind of what this team has struggled with the last 2 years.

The roll out pass to the TE with someone in his face has been a pretty easy throw for him. At least he makes it look easy. I am sure in his head it is easy peasy. In hind site he could have played it safe. I just don't think it felt risky to him. Now maybe next time with the lead.... who knows.

It was a JV level catch that Parkinson should've made
 
Yep and his other pick Van Jefferson kept drifting away from the ball instead of towards it and let Bates catch it, the usual Van Jefferson effort on a 50/50 ball
He threw it behind him, in traffic. Skowronek's drop was right in stride with him. Big difference

In real time you can't expect Stafford not make that throw. Had he held the ball he would have gotten drilled. Who knows what would have happened to him and the ball if he did hold on. The throw was there and Parkinson didn't make the catch. He was wide open with no one near him. We don't have to agree.

We don't have to agree. Maybe, he will take a little pace off the throw next time. I think Stafford makes that throw 100% of the time.

The Rams need to run those guys even more than they did vs Raiders. Talking high teens 20ish runs for each of them.
All their play action plays will work better and pass rush against us negated.
When the Rams come to the line I like to see Stafford under center. It just works better. Runs out of the gun sux IMO.

I’m sorry, but the only way they run the ball 40 times against Seattle or Denver or San Francisco well, there is no fucking way. The fact is if the passing game isn’t efficient there won’t be enough plays in the game for Offense to get a chance to run hardly at all. What we need is a something close to a 50/50 split, some teams you can’t run against at all unless you are ripping them up with the pass. Then you run just to keep them honest and maybe you break off a few good runs.
Yes mcvay gets carried away with the pass sometimes, but if he ran the ball like some here think he should, the next thing you all would be calling him to conservative.
 
As McVay has adapted to a two back system, his genius has really shown in how he has a completely different running package for each back that plays to their strengths. Kudos on that!

I have no complaints for either of our backs. Even if Kyren gives up the
ball or Corum drops a catchable ball..
Kyren is playing at a level that I have never seen. He is faster then he has been in the past.
He is a beast and Corum is more than getting the job done
Kyren 5.1 per carry - Corum 4.9 per carry = The Best RB tandem in the league.
In THE 13 OUR OFFENSE IS A MACHINE!!!

Side-bar... Would like to see us drawing up and running some deep shots to Atwell.
 
It's feeling to me like Corum's *performance* has eclipsed Kyren's.. at least running the ball.
This isn't saying Kyren's regressed.. it's saying, as a runner, Corum has put it together.. and his advantage in speed and explosiveness is starting to play out consistently.
