The Rams offense is not the same when the running game suffers, but Kyren Williams thinks the attack is getting realigned to face the Patriots.
First came self-reflection, followed quickly by self-correction. After rushing for eight touchdowns in six games, last Monday’s defeat by the Miami Dolphins marked the third consecutive game Rams running back Kyren Williams did not run for a touchdown. That Williams was running behind yet another offensive line combination did not matter. Nor did the fact that the line, by coach Sean McVay’s account, played poorly. Williams rushed for 62 yards in 15 carries and lost a fumble.
“There’s a rapport that's established between the player next to you, especially in some of the different schemes when you are working in concert or combination with guys that we haven't had the chance to be able to develop,” he said. “I think that's affected us, but … people have to be able to deal with that. We have to be better.” And not just the players, offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur said. “It’s all of our problem, starting with coaching,” LaFleur said.
