Sean McVay is not happy with the way his offense played on Monday night. No coach would be. They put up 327 total yards of offense, but for just the second time in Matthew Stafford’s tenure, the Rams failed to score a single touchdown.
Their 23-15 loss to the Dolphins was deflating and potentially costly, sending them to 4-5 and below .500 once again. During his postgame press conference, McVay was asked what he was feeling in real-time during the game, and “frustration” was the first word that came to mind.
The last question he faced from the media was to evaluate and describe the state of the Rams offense.
He gave one word: “Inconsistent.”
He didn’t storm off by any means, but he was clearly frustrated by his offense’s performance – as he should be.
After scoring 30 points against the Vikings and 26 against the Seahawks in the last two weeks, the Rams were held to five field goals and just 15 points.
Matthew Stafford was sacked four times, hit six times and the Dolphins racked up seven tackles for a loss to go with an interception and two forced fumbles.
There was a bad snap that went over Stafford’s head, a lost fumble by Kyren Williams, a drop by Puka Nacua and poor play by Joe Noteboom at right tackle, to put it lightly. There were far too many mistakes across the board in a game that was very winnable thanks to another strong outing by the Rams’ defense.
