The Los Angeles Rams and Dallas Cowboys NFC Divisional round game en

ded in thrilling fashion with the game coming down to a one score game.Although that turned out to be true John Johnson Jersey , the game simply wasn’t that close at any point outside of the first quarter. The Rams thoroughly dominated offensively routinely driving down the field succeeding with everything they wanted to do. It wasn’t a shutdown defensive performance, but it was still very good sans a blunder or two in pass coverage.Let’s revisit the matchups to watch:CB Nickell Robey-Coleman vs WR Cole BeasleyLast week’s matchup to watch:Cole Beasley was clearly hampered as he wasn’t even a part of the gameplan for the Cowboys, so much so that he only had one reception for 15 yards. Nickell Robey-Coleman was quiet (a good quiet) all game with his only blunder coming in coverage on the converted two point conversion. All in all, another great game for NRC.WR Robert Woods vs CB Chidobe AwuzieLast week’s matchup to watch:No Rams receiver was given a ton of opportunities to make big plays, and ironically, that was probably ideal. The ground game was abusive so the offense simply didn’t need to pass the ball much at all Gerald Everett Jersey , though Robert Woods did still lead the receivers with six receptions for 69 yards. Woods continues to be an important factor in the offense as his hands and route running ability create an easy target on third downs.DT Aaron Donald vs OG’s Connor Williams/Xavier Su’a-FiloLast week’s matchup to watch:Aaron Donald had a decent game, but nothing near his standards. Off the top of my head, Donald had two tackles, one tackle-for-loss, one holding call drawn, and a few more pressures/hits. This should excite Rams fans because the defense is clearly playing much better football recently and Donald had one of his more quiet games on the season.RT Rob Havenstein vs DE DeMarcus LawrenceLast week’s matchup to watch:Dominated. Big Rob Havenstein needs to receive a standing ovation for his performance yesterday as he completely neutralized DeMarcus Lawrence. Not only Hav John Kelly Jersey , but the entire offensive line was dominant. They paved massive holes consistently for both running backs (C.J. Anderson and Todd Gurley) and kept QB Jared Goff 100% clean and untouched. Brilliant performance for the OL and Aaron Kromer.QB Jared Goff vs MLB Jaylon SmithLast week’s matchup to watch:Saturday night was pretty much all you could ask for from Jared Goff. With the offensive line and running game dominating, he simply wasn’t asked to do much, but when he got a chance he was decisive and accurate with the ball. Goff’s marquee play probably came on the 3rd-and-7 with two minutes left in a game where he scrambled for a first down and effectively ended the game. Look for Jared to be more comfortable moving forward after notching his first playoff win.Rams’ front-seven vs RB Ezekiel ElliottLast week’s matchup to watch:The NFL rushing champ had 20 carries for 47 yards, that’s an average of 2.4 yards-per-carry. The defensive line (and front-seven) was absolutely dominant. The DL was strong at the point of attack, the inside linebacker duo of Cory Littleton and Mark Barron were active in chasing down ball carriers and wrapping up, and OLB’s Dante Fowler Jr and Samson Ebukam were fantastic in containing the edge’s and funneling runs back inside. Brilliant performance for a unit that’s largely been a liability. The move toward young John Franklin-Myers Jersey , offensive-minded assistants as head coaching candidates around the league has often been described as teams searching for the next Sean McVay.That comment came up frequently when word broke that the Packers are hiring Matt LaFleur as their new head coach. LaFleur was the Rams’ offensive coordinator in 2017 and worked with McVay in Washington before making the move to Los Angeles, which led to McVay calling it “awesome” that his former assistant got a top job.It also gave the 32-year-old a chance to quip that he’s “too young to have a coaching tree,” but one is still taking root. Rams assistants Zac Taylor and Shane Waldron interviewed with teams this month and McVay credited the entire organization for boosting their profiles.“It’s really the Rams’ success that we’ve had,” McVay said, via Joe Curley of the . “This is a reflection of the culture that’s created by the people that are here … It’s flattering for the organization.”Continued winning will lead to continued opportunities for Rams assistants and the team will look for the first playoff win of the McVay era on Saturday night.
