Are the recievers getting open

If the Rams understand how to defend anything it should be the long ball with the guys they see in practice every day.

Yes, I thought the game plan was good at attacking what the defense gave us, but I look at the stats post game and its another day of JC completing only 50%. Too many inaccurate throws today on attempts under 10 yards. And it's not that he's not taking what hes given. The completion to Duckett was a work of art, how he came off play action (eyes downfield) to find him wide open in the flat. But for every time he did that, there were 3 missed throws of similar distance.

Right now if you take away our deep passing game, the entire passing game becomes inconsistent. Yeah we had 4 good drives today (24 pts, not going to credit the offense for scoring off that blocked punt), but we have 4+ good drives every game. The difference is that today, we finished those and put it in the endzone. Instead of 1 TD and 3 FGs (16 pts), we got 1 FG and 3 TDs (24 pts). That's encouraging.
