Hell of a job by coach. We are blessed to have him. Never understood the hate he gets. He’s not perfect but always adjusts.
Stan, give that man 20 mil a year

McVay knows what he needs to win football games.
That was apparent from his first moves as new head coach of the Rams continuing on to last season's blockbuster trade.
His second guessers on this board look pretty silly now and shall remain nameless in order to protect the foolish.

I think McV was trying to just keep running the offense despite the obvious problems with guys missing, no run game etc...and finally handed the keys to #9 and said "Get Kupp the ball no matter what the defense is doing."
I wouldn't trade McV for anything.

So I'm kinda wondering who McVay will 'accidentally' meet up with in Cabo this next off-season ?

Imagine how great he’ll be when he finally figures it out? Runs when he should pass, pass when he should run….. lol!!

Fully agreed! For all my criticisms he is far and away the best coach the Rams have ever had, and he is a really great coach, which I have always been quick to admit, I just worry(ied) his flaws are potentially fatal if hte Rams don't draw the ideal matchups. Maybe that is nit picking. Every roster will have stylistic weaknesses. I just feel the Rams' are particularly pronounced.
He actually did not call a very good game today, IMO, but he did enough to get it done, and that is all that matters.
I do still plan on making a crow eating post about Sean, which I said a week or two ago, but have been swamped at work and have yet to get around to it. I think I will wait until after the Super Bowl posts die down, so that it gets more visibility, and people can all pile onto me to say "I told you so" instead of being deprived of that chance as it gets lost in the barrage of postings. In short, I am super glad McVay is ours not for his coaching (which is great), but his culture building prowess, and his ability to integrate pieces seamlessly into an offence in short order, which are what I think sets him apart. The high-level stuff is what gives him and the Rams such an advantage and special edge, more so than the granular coaching details, where Sean is quite good but nothing spectacular IMO. What he pulled off this year is incredible, and has me, at long last, eating the crow I've wanted to years. Truly, a masterclass showing by McVay this year to take this group and put it all together like he did.

Hopefully!?! The Leprechaun's dynasty has only just begun! We will be riding the rainbow to that SB pot of gold very often over the next decade or two - depending on how long the Comeback Maestro choses to hang around the City of Angels!

The annual raiding of his staff has already established that as a universal consensus for quite some time now.

Coaching is about so many things.... but leadership and culture building are right there at the absolute top. McVay absolutely excels in this area.. in understanding how to have fun.. and cultivate a collaborative spirit. It's incredible.
