Snaps & Targets
PostPosted:9 years 8 months ago
offense: worth noting is the average number of wide receivers on the field per snap (2.4 through 4 games) vs the number of tight ends + backs (2.6 through 4 games), highlighted in blue font below... this isn't surprising, and pretty much what the rams have done the last few years, which is not field a lot of multiple (3+) wide receiver sets, the rams rank near the bottom in wide receivers fielded per snap, while the packers are the polar opposite, they rank near the top of the league...
a few other things that jump out: oline snaps for 4 consecutive games, at 100% or very near for all 5 starters, always very nice to see... britt and tavon are the 2 primary wide receivers, each averaging about 35 snaps per game, while bailey, from the slot, comes in at about 22 snaps per game... question: has tavon flat out beat quick out of one of the 2 wide out spots? could it be that quick might not be in the dog house, but instead the rams feel they have more weapons on the field with britt and tavon spread wide instead of britt and quick?
re cook, even tho it seemed that he didn't see al ot of action in the second half against the cards, he saw his fair share, his usual load, played 75% of the offensive snaps, just a tick below the 80% he averaged headed in, and a greater % than he played against the skins...
defense: the rams shift to primarily a nickel defense, which started halfway through last season, once tru returned, has continued this season... through 4 games the rams have fielded an average of 5.1 dbs per snap vs 2.2 linebackers per snap (highlighted in blue font below)....
a few other things that jump out: barron saw an average of 35% of the defensive snaps prior to the cards game, that average jumped to 70% against the cards, no doubt ao's injury may had something to do with it, but it will be interesting to see how much he sees the field against green bay. roberson saw a lot of action in the first game, mostly subbing for a dinged tru, and saw 18% of the snaps the following game, but since then he hasn't seen any action on defense, no snaps in the last two games.
and here's a look at targets... cook, as usual, is the most targeted ram, followed by tavon then britt... re britt, 10 targets against the steelers, which accounts for more than half the targets he's seen all year, i.e. the rams haven' thrown to him much at all outside of the steelers game, just 1 target last week... btw, in the 73 games britt has played, he's seen more than 10 targets just 6 times.
total targets to wide receivers is at 46%, which is a low ratio, bleak actually, it's even lower than last season, in fact the rams rank 31st in % of targets thrown to their wide receivers through week 4, they also rank 32nd in the actual number of targets their wide receivers have seen, kinda hard to get to 1,000+ yards with that sort of action.
