McVay is in the driver's seat towards becoming the most iconic/successful head coach in league history
Not promising anything crazy, just pointing out his immediate success combined with starting at an age that is 10+ years younger than the typical first time HC- guy could potentially pull a George H.Halas and win 300+ games(318 Ws) with one organization

--- note Halas was a HC for 47 years...started coaching the Decatur Staleys(one season, than became Bears) at age of 25.
I give McVay an 86%° chance he is still leader of this party 8 years from now. Can't give 100% chance because guys like Jim Harbaugh had killer early impressions but ultimately spiraled towards their defeat of can pull a Jon Gruden(Oak>TB)\Tony Dungy(TB>IND) and depart at peak of career due to developing emotional/political fatigue/disrespect, wearing out stay or running for the Ro$e$.As
°'86 is his year of birth, that's why I went there
I'll use this opportunity to admit upon his hire I instinctively predicted him not making it more than 2 seasons.
Think about how often slam dunk hires never stood a chance:Bing
any Belecheck spawn, modern Jon Gruden, Lovie Smith - poor guy is going out on a lowww note in Illiniville, Kyle Shanahan - if he had anything close to 'it' he should be able to coach his team up to an 8-8 record despite injuries, Dennis Green(AZ), Jeff Fisher, Steve Spurrier replacing a very competent Marty Schottenheimert, Nick Saban, Chip Kelly(PHI&SF), Bobby Petrino, Dick Vermeil/Herm Edwards(KC),John Fox(CHI) Steve Mariucci(DET), Mike Singletary, and DITKA
Rare slam dunks that stuck the landing over past two decades:
Tony Dungy
Andy Reid(KC)
Pete Carroll(SEA)
Marvin Lewis - longest tenured in league, was house hold name as Ravens DC
Norv Turner,multiple times
Ken Wisenhunt(AZ) first guy to get that team playing legit in a long time, was well known as Steelers OC
Gary Kubiak(Den)
Jimmy Johnson
Tom Coughlin(NYG)
Jim Mora(IND)
Dick Vermeil(STL)
IMO currently the best active head coaches were under the radar hires - Mike Tomlin, Andy Reid(PHI), Asshole Face, Anthony Lynn, Mike McCarthy, and perhaps Dan Quinn and Matt Nagy.
