Sean Mcvay was really pissed during and after the Giants game. When Stafford threw the interception Mcvay literally threw his headset.
Mcvay is beginning to remind me of Mad Martz. He allows almost no room for mistakes. On one hand you like that type of competitor. This game had plenty of Stafford bonehead mistakes between the interception and the 3 missed interception, not to mention the bonehead run by Stafford where he doesn't get down and almost gets his head taken off. Seriously dude, get down.
The similarity with Martz is Mcvay doesn't throw his QB's under the bus in front of the media but gets a little crazy when his offense isn't working. I've heard several analysts this week move the Rams down the power rankings because of Staffords erratic throws over the last several games. He has a top Oline giving him excellent protection, multiple targets getting separation and Mcvay creating wide open looks with some unbelievable play calls. To Staffords credit, once he gets on a roll he throws darts. He also clearly throws the verticals much better than Goff did the final two years. But if anyone doesn't think Mcvay is getting frustrated you are not paying attention.
Meanwhile Goff has a Coach saying he needs to put the game on his shoulders to get a win but also says he doesn't believe you can judge Goff under these conditions. The conditions is an Oline ravaged by injury and the worst WRs in the NFL.
Sunday will truly be a beatdown of Goff and the Lions. We are talking top team vs bottom dwellers.
But pay attention to Mcvay, he knows he is a tremendous play caller and he puts on a good face to the public, but he is starting to get frustrated. Watch his post pressers. Once we start facing some real defenses it could get ugly. So far we have faced some terrible secondaries. Hopefully Stafford has hit full stride by then with this new offense.
