That was the one that bothered me as well. Biggest mistake he made in the game.

And I got crushed here when I said he had bad clock management before the half and might of cost us the game. But that's neither here nor there....

If he knows it after the fact I just can't understand why he doesn't know it in the moment. Head coaches need to know these things in real time. It's one of the flaws in his skill set so far and no I'm not calling for his job whatsoever.

Sean McVay admits he still dwells on clock management mistake in NFC Championship Game

Two Rams incomplete passes late in the first half gave the Seahawks time to score a touchdown before halftime.

Two of the great things he does is self evaluation and taking responsibility even to the extreme. He always shields the players even with something as obvious as the muffed punt.

The way he talks it sounds like he plans to be around for the long haul. Thats a good thing. He's got a chance to be the winningest coach ever in years to come. I may not be around when he's in his 60's. I'd have to make it 90. But its nice to know we have a very good coach and organization. And we gotta enjoy having Stafford while we can. It also sounds like he's not going anywhere soon too. I would not be surprised if he sticks around another 3 or 4 years. I just don't like the uncertainty of the year to year thing.

I mean, in fairness, he is making real time split second decisions, while trying to balance "the book" with gut feeling. That is very different than knowing you made the wrong choice after the fact.

Love him. Should have been his priority to go into that Half up 13-10. Especially with them getting 2nd Half Kickoff. The only thing we couldn't afford was them "double dipping" which is exactly what happened. Down 24-13 early 3rd. Hopefully a live-and-learn moment for him. But we had a really crap defense and these Kansas City cornerbacks are going to make a huge difference this year , I reckon.

Like GMs, coaches are going to make mistakes. It sucks, especially in big spots, like the NFCCG.

I'm sure it's easy for McVay to second-guess himself regarding the pass plays he called which allowed Seattle to save their timeouts and gave them a quick three-and-out, but he has always put the ball in his playmaker's hands and in that case... it was Matthew Stafford. He probably figured that Stafford and/or Puka would make a play. Can't fault him for that IMO. Like every other play... if it's successful he looks like a genius. If not... it looks like a bad call.

He has led us to two super bowls and almost two more in the last 2 years. I'm not complaining.

That was exactly my thought listening and watching his interviews yesterday.
