Sony had majority of the carries vs the niners, it didn't work. It was a 20/5 mix sony/akers

I think we should be 2/3 Akers 1/3 Sony, Akers makes more tacklers miss and IMHO much more twitchy. Sony is good for those dirty 3 yd carrys. But to assume Akers is in football shape for a 25 carry game with 5-6 passes may be aggressive.

To me we stop the run and we win. This is #1. I don't think Jimmy G beats us with his arm. We can get to him with our rush especially with Compton at RT and Williams possibly not playing or not 100%.

Slow down their rush via a chip or extra man staying in or a extra OLman added. We have too many weapons for the 9ers imo just need the time to get the ball to them and not under duress.

McVay must scheme to take Deebo out of their plans and same for Kittle the rest as you saw in TB are not beating you. We limit Deebo and Kittle each to 50 total yards we win it's that simple but McVay needs a new way of attacking them.

Clog up the passing lanes in the middle and make Jimmy G. beat us by throwing outside the numbers. He doesn't have the arm strength or proper footwork to consistently drive the ball to the outside when his receivers are running away from him. When the Packers forced him to throw outside, he hung some throws that could have been picked off.

Agreed. The rams got Stafford for a reason, if the run isn't working, don't force it. Allow Stafford to do his thing, with that said, limit the empty set (unless it's a screen), at least make the niners think you might run. When a empty is ran they just go all out to get Stafford.

Earth to you:

It was Akers’ first game back after surgery and McVay said he’d see limited carries, which any thinking person would understand. Most Ram fans would know that ancient history.

Once Akers proved healthy, McVay split them 17/13 in Akers favor in the Wild Card game but Michel had more yds/carry.

McVay then perplexed Ram Nation by going 24/1 Akers vs the Bucs even though Akers was having a rough time and had two turnovers. If you’re saying McVay shouldn’t even have tried Michel more then lololol.

Army maybe you’ve been away, let me catch you up, the Niner have bittttch slappped us 6 times in a row, most of the time with significant injuries and not at full strength

The post wasn’t questioning if McVay is a good coach . He’s a great coach against the 30 other teams in the NFL, we need him to be a great coach Sunday and IMHO he’s gonna have to do some things different

I haven’t been away, well aware of the bitch slap the Niners have given us. I’m also aware that you’re not criticizing McVay as a good or bad coach Im confident that we get the job done this time. In McVay/Morris I trust.

He’s def capable of getting it done, just seems like he keeps playing them the same way
