There is no question that Stafford has finished the season as a turnover machine, i.e. INTs and fumbles.
Raise your hand if you have confidence that Stafford can go through the playoffs without a turnover? IMO it's a matter if it will boot them out of the playoffs or if they can over come them.
I think Goff threw 13 INTs one season and McVay was all over him. Stafford threw 17 including multiple pick 6s and McVay has been ho hum. I like Stafford and think he's a great QB, but I'm not blind to his faults. He has a tendency to press every bit as much as Goff. He's going to be under even more pressure now to get the can't win a playoff game monkey off his back. The scenario is ripe for a loss because this year we have Morris an inept DC not Staley.
McVay can help Matt with his playcalling. Quit calling slow developing plays when backed up. Don't go away from the run, especially when it's working. Take the points when he can so that they aren't chasing them in the 4th qtr. Give Havenstein help against Watt because Watt will destroy Havenstein just like Carlos Dunlap consistently does.
The Cards are primarily a dink and dunk offense counting on YAC. The defense must tackle and McVay must win the TOP battle. Get out front and control the clock. Tell Morris no more prevent defenses when they have a lead.
The only way the Rams lose is if McVay, Morris and Stafford give it away.
