Let's talk about the Rams.
2016 under Jeff Fisher:
Jared Goff: 1,089 passing yards in seven games. 5 TDs, 7 INTs - 0-7 as a starter.
Todd Gurley: 278 carries for 886 yards (3.2 avg!), 6 TD's
Rams were LAST in total offense. LAST in points per game.
Fast forward two years -- Goff leads the NFL in passing, Gurley leads the NFL in rushing. Three Rams receivers are in the top 10 in receiving in the NFL.
Rams are now FIRST in total offense, SECOND in points per game.
In 2016, Goff looked like a washout and Dak looked like a No. 1 overall pick. In two years, the tables have completely turned.
What's the difference here?
Sean McVay.
Coaching matters, folks. It matters a whole friggen lot. It's everything in today's NFL. It's easy to look at the Rams offense and say "man, they're so much better than us" but the fact is, many of the players leading the way for the Rams now, looked just as putrid as Dak and these guys look right now until a real coach, who knows what he's doing, came in and put them in a position to succeed.
When will that happen in Dallas?
