Rams Offensive Personnel Packages and What We Might See

[Whatever]

Interestingly, with only 1 TE used...I wonder how we'd use Eifert/Sample/Uzomah?

Sean McVay and the Rams used 11 personnel (1 RB, 1 TE, 3 WR) on 90+% of their offensive snaps in 2018.

Over the past 2 seasons, the @RamsNFL have used only 5 personnel packages on offense, while 3 teams have used 30+ (@ChicagoBears, @Saints and @Ravens).

I doubt we'll see the offense that heavy in a single package.

With Eifert, you can easily run 11 looks with 12 personnel.  Andy can then audible based on how the defense counters.  If they're in nickel, you use a traditional 2 TE look and pound it with the run game.  If they go to their 4-3/3-4 base, you split Eifert out wide and exploit the 1 on 1 matchup against a LB.

I read where Giovanni had been putting in a lot of work as a slot receiver in OTA's.  The Rams offense is all about running different plays out of the same look.  My guess is our twist on that will be to be able use the same looks with different personnel groupings to further confuse the defense.
