Two questions:
1) On three of the plays inside the Rams 10, there were pretty easy pre-snap reads where JC could've audibled to different plays.
- One was on the first RZ series where the Rams were stacked pretty hard for a Cover 0 blitz, why not audible to the fade or slant here? Instead they ran the stretch left for 1 yd.
- Second was in the 2nd half on 2nd & GL from the 7, Rams are in Zone with Kely isolated 1-1 to the wide side, give the guy a shot at the fade. On this play it was an inside run for +2
- Third was on the next play 3rd & GL from the 5 on the Portis throw...ugh. The B-gap ISO was set-up perfectly and Portis would've went in untouched.

My question is; does Zorn allow JC to audible in the RZ, it doesn't appear so. If that's the case that needs to change.

2) When we're in the RZ, especially inside the 10, why is Moss in the game and not Kelly. Moss is no threat on a fade. Kelly is, and he would do a better job of making the DBs play honest and create extra space, even if it's a little. How about Kelly on one side, Mitchell on the other, now the D can't cheat on either side.
