The Los Angeles Rams offense has looked the exact opposite from that 10-1 run LA went on before the bye. If you’re a fan who’s been scratching your head wondering what happened, you wouldn’t be the only one.

Quarterback Jared Goff, who looks every bit a frustrated and slumping quarterback, needs a solid bounce back kind of game to begin to find some positive traction as the season enters its last two weekends.

The silver lining may come in their Week 16 game against a truly awful Cardinals team fresh off of a 40-14 thrashing against the Atlanta Falcons. You also have to imagine that after a week where McVay has had an opportunity to break down the break down of his Rams offense, and the addition of a veteran running back who could buy some time for a gimpy running game, Goff should be able to enjoy some needed success.

Week 16 is a bad week to try and figure it out again from the quarterback position. After the game against the Chicago Bears and the Philadelphia Eagles where turnovers became the most talked about part of his game, getting a bad Cardinals defense could go a long way in restoring some confidence and form to his game.
