I wonder if Kyle switches up his run game next year with more duo runs like McVay has. Would be nice to have a wr that can get open

Unlikely. McVay transitioned to a heavy vertical run game years ago and built his OL accordingly. I remember reading an article last year about how the Rams OL is either one of the or is the heaviest in the NFL. They're much bigger and beefier than the 49ers, who lean towards having one of the smaller OLs in the NFL.

Take draft away from KS/JL. This is excellent!

I'm looking forward to seeing how the Rams OL holds up against the Hawks DL. Kyle might need to beef up his OL

Shanahan's offense has put up 26 points in 3 games vs Seattle.
McVay's offense has put up 85 in their 3 games vs Seattle and 27 just today.
Is it even a discussion who the better play caller and coach is?

Well these guys can't draft so you might as well trade all our picks and Mac for a top 10 draft pick

Not about the coach. It's the personnel.
Rams have more beef up front and vastly superior weapons outside. Two guys on HOF trajectories in Adams and Puka. We have slow-poke JJ and banged up Ricky P Soft. (I'm actually a big Pearsall fan, I just couldn't resist the chance to make that joke..)

And the excuse when Kyle had the best team in the league?
it was the qb's fault. The defenses fault. Everyone but Kyle's. Not that he's just a f'en choker.

It's never the coach is it?
That being said, who is the one responsible for our team being mediocre compared to the Rams and Hawks? Who chose to sign Aiuyk instead of trading him? Who drafted Pearsall in the 1st?
These are all Shanahan's issues and he needs to shoulder the blame.

McVay had a rough night. Just awful clock management. It happens to the best coaches.

It's always the coach, isn't it!? That was so easy to turn it around lol.
But yeah - He made Aiyuk tear his knee up and made Pearsall somehow not only get shot but unluckily injure his knee this year! Yeah! Burn the witch!
I am not sure you realize how silly that sounds.

I don't have an ALT account. I got put in a timeout like a toddler by the ridiculous mods in here for saying "loser mentality" while all you guys can do and say what you want

A rough night? His offense scored 27 points in Seattle. We scored 6.
You can't make this stuff up in here.
