Quick Breakdown On McVay's Playcall On The Double Slant For The TD

So, after calling that this TNF was going to be good, I sat excited and amazed at the offensive geniuses in McVay and Shanahan. Both gave it their all, alongside the teams and their efforts. A very fun game overall.

Looking at that, one particular play stood out. An endzone RPO concept that was used twice in a row, each with different results. Essentially, RPO is defined as a "run, pass option" at its core. It's how the Rams used this common play that's really intriguing.

Let's take a look at the first time the Rams tried this concept.

The Rams initially split with one receiver on the right and bunch two on the left. #17 from the right draws back in to block. The 49ers are in man coverage at the goal-line 

What's interesting is just exactly how this initial play is used as a "diagnostic." They run Gurley on the first play, a smart choice considering it was a second down. Notice how the Rams expose the 49ers are indeed in man coverage, as they send their two bunched receivers on double slants.

Gurley isn't able to punch it in, but that's okay, because there's still third down.

Once again, Rams line up just how they did on the original play. The Rams initially split with one receiver on the right and bunch two on the left. #17 from the right draws back in to block. The 49ers are in man coverage again at the goal line.

The two receivers both run a slant, with the top receiver "picking" the backside DB with his route. The corner's forced to wait, as he can't just shove or try to get past the first receiver lest he wants to get a penalty. 

The underneath receiver comes in behind with plenty of space. Goff makes the easy throw for the sure touchdown.

Very creative stuff. Just wanted to highlight something I really thought was cool.

The first receiver should've never gotten a free release in the first place. This game is less an offensive chess match than it is a comedy of defensive errors.

True. Inside CB tried to jam and failed pretty miserably at it. If he's successful in his jam, outside CB has a much better shot of making a play.

The CBs should've recognized that it was the same play and adjusted. Thinking that the chances of them running the same play, 2x in a row, with the same focus, Gurley, seems unlikely. Therefore I'd want my CB to react differently and jump the route. You open up a problem by losing contain on that side but the betting guess is pass at that moment. Nice play.

    • I didn't say much bigger. Watch the highlights I linked. Bryce doesn't have the arm strength and/or talent to make the vast majority of the throws Mac made in that video. 
    • Tetairoa McMillan.   The last 28 1st overall picks were either a QB, DE, or OT. Seeing as I don't think we'd take an OT in the 1st and give up on Ickey as an LT yet and there doesn't seem to be a clear overall #1 type of QB or DE pick this year, it very well could be a non conventional #1 overall this year, at least in regards from the last almost 3 decades of drafts. If we didn't have Horn, I'd be more open to Hunter as a CB at #1, but we have him so another CB wouldn't be how I'd use a #1 pick.  And as much as I love Legette, if we have SB contending aspirations, I don't think Legette is a #1 on a team like that, but he damn sure is an elite #2 on a team like that.  He's more of the Smith/Higgins/Waddle to Brown/Chase/Hill (in terms of role/impact, not style of play of course). T-Mac is going to be the top ranked WR on every team's board in the end.  He is going to be a true outside #1 WR who is viewed as a consensus Top 5 WR in the game by his second contract in the same way guys like Jefferson and Chase have done.  His height combined with his speed, athleticism, and hands are near impossible to find all in one player, there is a reason his generally used comp is Mike Evans (although as he's not as thick, I personally see him more as an AJ Green). Yes, as an Arizona alum I've admitted to having bias towards the player to begin with.  But he's also someone very widely being put into the Top 5 in mock drafts lately and most of them have him as the first non QB offensive player being taken, so it's not really THAT much of a homer pick on my part anyways. If a QB or DE truly separate themselves as being a can't miss prospect come draft day, I'm open to that discussion, but until then, or if it doesn't happen, T-Mac is my pick 100 times out of 100.
