The key to improving this offense next year is getting Zeke in space, like McVay did all year with Gurley. Screens, bubble screens, flat passes, wheel routes. A staple of their offense is playaction run, and then screening it to Gurley. This tremendously stresses the LBs, who have to step up for the fake run, but then turn and drop quickly into their pass zones. This creates the running lane for Gurley. They run the same playaction and then run Gurley out to the flat. I have never understood with the athleticism that we have on OL, why we refuse to run screen passes to the RB. That must change. There is no reason that, with a little copycat of LAR system, Zeke cannot make a huge impact in the pass game next year. And that would open up the entire offense and make life easier for Dak.
