Episode notes
INSIGHT

Rams' Interior Could Sabotage Them

  • The Rams' interior offensive line may be the hidden weakness that derails them against elite defenses.
  • Ollie warns lack of speed off the ball and one-on-one pass-pro issues limit McVay's flexibility and chunk-play creation.
INSIGHT

Eagles' Offense Is Too Predictable

  • The Eagles' offense has regressed into basic, man-reliant concepts that stall without a running game.
  • Ollie says their fixes have often condensed the offense and worsened explosive-play production.
ADVICE

Use Spread, Rhythm And Simpler Reads

  • Spread formations and quick reads unlock Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley more than heavy personnel and condensed alignments.
  • Move toward rhythm, man-beating design and simpler reads to restore explosive plays.
