The Los Angeles Rams hired Mike LaFleur to replace Liam Coen as the offensive coordinator this year, and though Sean McVay will still be mostly responsible for the offense, one of LaFleur’s most important jobs will be getting the Rams to do better on third downs than they did in 2022.
But perhaps more importantly, LaFleur will want to help the Rams avoid third down more often than they did in 2022.
As noted by Warren Sharp on Twitter this week, the L.A. Rams ranked fifth in avoiding third downs in 2021 en route to winning the Super Bowl.
