Best offensive performance this season. Dak definitely had his best game this year to date.
Fixed is hard to say based off the last two games given the small sample size. I do think it’s continuing to evolve and they’re making adjustments as the season progresses. Which is helping a lot.

There just weren’t enough chunk plays early in the season. The last couple of games the chunk plays are starting to happen again, particularly in the passing game.

If those continue, it’s going to make a world of difference.

It’s one game, we’ll see how we do against Philly. That will be the true test. The criticism of the offense will start up again next week if we don’t play well. We need a good offensive performance against a contending team.

Plating much better. I think McCarrhy has decided we need to throw rather than force the run.
It did look like they were trying to get Pollard running out on the edge a bit more today. I would like to see more of that too.

You will get your answer next week when they play against a much better defense. The Rams defense was horrible, and we all know how Dak does against bad defenses.

Passing game looked much more crisp.
after the first series. The OL settled down some.
Run game still needs work, though Pollard looked much better in the 2nd half.

Not fixed, we lack a bruising RB that we can count on for a great ground-and-pound game when the need for one arises. Also, this O-line is piecemealed together from spare parts. When will all the starters be healthy at the same time?

Eagles defense is really not that much better. What will your excuse be then. This is like the 20th time you posted this across different threads. It is like you want him to fail Just to say you were right.

I don't give a damn about being right or wrong, I just don't trust him to be consistent. I don't trust him against better defenses.

25th ranked pass defense is good?
You’re going off raw yards which is not a great stat to use. They’re 25th ranked in passing yards allowed.

Prior to this game the rams Defense had allowed 4 passing td’s all season. Dak had 4 today.

The rams defense prior to this game has allowed 88 passer rating to all the QB’s they’ve played combined. Dak’s was like 130.

The point is the Rams defense hasn’t been an awful defense. I’m not saying they’re world beaters either.

It is just one game of course. We do need to see it against the top defenses.
