Los Angeles Rams showcase dynamic backfield duo
The Los Angeles Rams have rediscovered a potent rushing attack reminiscent of the days when Todd Gurley and C.J. Anderson dominated the field in 2018. As the season unfolds, Rams head coach Sean McVay is thrilled to witness the emergence of a formidable one-two punch in the backfield, featuring Kyren Williams and Blake Corum.
A New Era of Rushing Offense
With a dependable rushing strategy allowing for seamless player rotation, McVay’s latest offensive assets have taken center stage, even as opportunities have been limited. Both Williams and Corum have shone brightly in recent weeks, delivering standout performances that have energized the Rams’ offense.
McVay’s Praise for the Players
In reflecting on the team’s success, McVay emphasized the importance of execution. “I think the execution is about the players,” he noted. “The players are ultimately bringing it to life and they’re executing.”
He pointed to the recent games as a testament to the collective effort of the team. “Yesterday was a great illustration of guys getting connected, and then I thought the backs got everything that was blocked for and then more,” he said.
Highlighting specific moments, McVay mentioned Corum’s impressive long run and Williams’ ability to navigate through defenses with agility. “It always takes all 11,” he added. “It doesn’t necessarily matter what the concept is. They’re just bringing it to life. I think they have an ownership and an understanding of what the intent is.”
Looking Ahead
As the Rams continue to build on this momentum, the partnership between Williams and Corum could prove to be a game-changer for the Rams. With McVay at the helm, fans can anticipate an exciting evolution of the Rams’ rushing offense that may very well echo the glory days of their past.
