Simpson grew more comfortable and aggressive as Saturday's game drew on. The crutch was removed later in the game and the Rams leaned into more traditional drop back passing. Simpson looked comfortable and hung in the pocket to push the ball down the field.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Simpson grew comfortable in pocket and moved away from play-action reliance as game progressed.

Simpson demonstrated improved comfort and aggression as the game progressed, moving away from early conservative play-action heavy schemes. The source notes that while the Rams used play action early (8 of 25 dropbacks, 32%) to help the rookie settle in, Simpson looked comfortable hanging in the pocket and pushing the ball downfield in traditional drop-back passing later in the game, indicating he was not overly reliant on play action as a crutch.
