Episode notes
Rams Should Lean On Puka, Not Just TEs
- Rams' usage of 13 personnel (two TEs plus back) was highly effective during the season but disappeared in playoffs.
- Puka Nacua remains the Rams' single biggest mismatch and moving him matters more than three-TE looks.
Adams' Recent Drop Could Be Injury Noise
- Devontae Adams' reduced explosiveness may be injury-related rather than a long-term decline.
- He still can produce game-changing contested catches at any moment.
Watch The Rams' Interior Triangle
- Watch the Rams' interior triangle at the snap: Byron Murphy, Leonard Williams, and Kevin Dotson.
- These three define early trench outcomes and signal the game's momentum.
