LAR 28, NYG 6 — final. Nacua and Whittington were inactive Monday. Adams and Stafford’s production now replaces the pending-game view; those absences are not Week 3 designations. Week 2 snap counts are available; route participation and targets per route remain unverified.

Scheelhaase replaces Mike LaFleur, with Kliff Kingsbury joining as assistant head coach. Saved 2025 Rams tendencies remain historical; the completed opener is one game, not a measured full-season 2026 identity.

The approach behind the offense

Reported concepts and coaching priorities
OFFENSIVE APPROACH

McVay remains the caller

The March staff discussion explicitly retained McVay’s play-calling role despite changes around him. Scheelhaase’s promotion follows two seasons within the Rams staff.

Source & context ↗
OFFENSIVE APPROACH

Flexible tight-end roles

September reporting describes Ferguson working in-line and detached and the depth room enabling different packages. The team identified heavy three-tight-end usage in 2025; no 2026 percentage is assumed.

Source & context ↗
OFFENSIVE APPROACH

Two-back rushing contribution

Williams and Corum combined for 21 carries and 95 yards in the opener. The close carry totals support recognizing Corum’s role without projecting a permanent split.

Source & context ↗

Fantasy connection: Nacua and Whittington were inactive Monday. Adams and Stafford’s production now replaces the pending-game view; those absences are not Week 3 designations.

Sample: 1,053 classified 2025 regular-season plays, all game states. Dropbacks (59.3%) include sacks and scrambles; designed runs exclude scrambles. Kneels, spikes, two-point tries, aborted snaps and nullified plays are excluded. NFL comparisons use the same filters. These are historical rates, not a 2026 play forecast.

Reading the numbers: The 2025 column retains its historical regular-season sample. Week 2 actuals describe the completed 2026 game. No Week 3 forecast is supplied.

Target share: player targets / all recorded team targets. Carry share: player rush attempts / team rush attempts (including QB runs/kneels). Red-zone and goal-line share: player targets + rush attempts inside the opponent 20 / 5 divided by the corresponding team total. Null means unverified, not zero. Preliminary statistics may be corrected.

Week 2 snap counts are available for all 32 teams. Route participation and targets per route remain unverified. Unavailable is not zero.

Availability: Active means on the named game-day roster, not a snap guarantee. Inactive means not playing in that named game. Emergency QB has conditional entry restrictions. Available means not carrying a current out, doubtful or questionable designation in the checked evidence; it does not establish final game-day active status. Pending means clearance for the upcoming game is unconfirmed. Reserve and practice-squad players have distinct roster restrictions. Elevated means added for the specified game.

ReserveMatthew CaldwellQB · Reserve/Injured; unavailable.

Practice squad: Dean Connors (RB); Jordan Waters (RB); Alex Bachman (WR); Brennan Presley (WR); Dan Villari (TE). A practice-squad listing does not establish a game-day elevation.
