Without dweebo, McCafé, and maybe kibble, the 9ers, in addition to a poor pass protecting OL, is there anybody who doesn’t think the 9ers are gonna try and run the ball down the Rams’ throats tomorrow? First and foremost, the Rams defense must stop this from happening to have any chance of a victory.
1) the IDL has to play a much better game than they did last week. Their best game so far is what’s needed. Without a solid performance up front the Rams don’t stand a chance. We all know the LB group is below average, so a stout front is gonna be required to keep those guys clean. I sure hope Davis is ready and this becomes Fiske’s “hello NFL” game.
2) score and score often, offense. Winning TOP will be a must, but if there was ever a game to get a couple big plays downfield with Atwell, this is it. The Rams have to back off and spread out the defense or make them pay.
If these things can be accomplished, the Rams can put purdy in obvious passing situations. That’s not gonna be a good thing for him because their OL is currently miserable in pass protection.
Stafford and McVay are gonna have to spread the ball around in both the passing and running game. Use both RBs and run some jet sweeps with our WRs. Get the TEs more involved in the passing game. Parkinson looked good in week 1. Go back to him.
And again, target Atwell deep, opening up some underneath stuff to the other WRs.
The Rams are gonna struggle and have to run on grit and heart for the next few weeks, but the 9ers are having their share of injuries too. The Rams have overachieved before, the 9ers have not. If anything, they’ve been quite the opposite (chokers!). They are a weakened bully. This win is doable.
