I try not to be a snob when it comes to football, but the Redskins offense is boring.
Perhaps I was spoiled by the Sean McVay years. The now-Rams head coach coordinated some mighty fine offenses during his time in Washington—a talent from which Los Angeles now benefits.
Matt Cavanaugh, the ex-quarterbacks coach, and head coach Jay Gruden, have combined their heads to formulate Washington’s new scheme. It’s essentially McVay’s offense + one whole gallon of water. Vanilla ice cream, man.
A lot of Washington fans insist this team is a different squad than the Week 1 team the Redskins deployed—really, they’ve just faced worse defensive lines and ran the ball more effectively.
