I don’t think this is true and I don’t understand people wanting McVay gone. The chance the Rams replace him with a better coach are basically zero.

How bout Jon Gruden, to Coach Ty Simpson, in the next iteration of the Rams. Interesting, right? It could work.....

Yeah, as it should be. The roster has had holes these last couple of years and he still managed to win. But now we have a near flawless roster and he's 2-4.

Coaching starts at the top with McVay down to the players. The players are top notch. MeMeMe McVay is not.
Gruden is fun to listen to but there’s nothing he’s done over the last 20 years that proves he is still capable of being an elite football coach. Look at his last 6 seasons before he got fired….4-12, 9-7, 9-7, 4-12, 7-9, 8-8.
yeah misleading though... garrett really hasn't played all year.

I would take Dan Quinn over Sean McVay. His HollyWeird shit is over. Stan and Les won't tolerate this
Ya, that miss to puka on the double move was unforgivable. Just had to hang it in the air, there no one withing 10 yards

He missed because the pocket collapsed and he was getting rocked.

First of all it should’ve been illegal contact, because Puka’s momentum got completely stopped coming out of the double move. Then Stafford got hit as he let go of the ball, and lastly it looked like Puka should’ve still caught the ball. If Puka doesn’t get bumped or if Stafford can step into the throw it’s a walk in touchdown.

Next week is basically a must win and it will be a much tougher game than this one was today. Cousins is going to carve this defense up if Shula calls the usual.
2-5 with the ability to lose maybe 1 more game would be too much for this team. Need to be 3-4 going into chargers week.

Yay we have the Raiders next. The #1 pick from Indiana will start and light is the fuck up. While McVay continues his conservative agenda.

The Rams should get 4-2. 2-4 is amazing LMAO. We should definitely destroy the Raiders 42-3. it won't happen because most men are weak now. I'm better than you haha

#23 and #24 are BADASS mother fuckers. Sean McVay is the issue. Maybe he should try kicking too. I'm tired of his endless excuses. His grandfather must be so proud.
We can blame the refs for a shitty call - and yes, it's more than legit to point it out - but this loss is first and foremost and almost entirely on Sean fucking McVay, as is this absolute clusterfuck abortion of an underachieving season.
We know about special teams already. But they suck because McVay thinks he can put a band aid on the issue instead of really doing what he needs to do to fix it. No kicker competition brought in this season, no effort to go get a returner.
Defense? Well, we can blame Shula some ... but why the fuck isn't his boss doing something about it? As I mentioned in another post, either McVay is letting Shula call the games this way, or he's making him. There is no third option because the buck stops with McVay. So if we are playing too much soft zone, not being creative with our blitzes and not mixing things up, that ultimately falls on McVay. I will buttress that point by noting that Raheem Morris, who got raked over the coals here for his passive-ass playcalls (and I was definitely one of the most guilty in that respect) - looks like a completely different DC now that he is doing it for our arch enemy. So was he really that bad here, or were his hands tied? Shula is a question mark for me, because I don't know what the head coach is telling him. We did see Shula call a great game against the Eagles a couple of weeks ago, with some really well timed blitzes wreaking havoc on Philly's offense, which, while not great, was at least as good as the Cardinals offense.
Also, can we blame Shula that our ILBs are not that great? McVay has never felt any need to invest in that position. And our D's have suffered more often than not when we need plays from our ILBs. If McVay had a prime Bobby Wagner or prime Ray Lewis, would he have paid them or let them walk in free agency?
That cuts to another one of his weaknesses - his roster management, particularly this year, is fucking atrocious. He didn't do anything to really invest in special teams this offseason, but he goes and trades to get TuTu back, only to keep him on a shelf in a Mason jar most weeks. And while I'm not going to become a member of the TuTu fan club, I'm not a hater either - he at least has speed and IMO he's a better WR than either Mumpfield or Whittington, who are active each week. Why? Because they play STs? Has McVay seen our ST's? Honestly, I don't know what Whittington even offers us - why is he on the roster? Why is he soaking up reps that could go to TuTu or CJ Daniels? And why do you collect WRs if you're not going to use them (much less even dress them on gameday), especially when the bottom of your roster is hurting for good special teams players?
And of course, his playcalling is fucking horrible this year. This is the worst it's been in his tenure with the Rams. He probably spends so much time trying to figure out how he should be calling plays that he neglects other aspects of being a head coach. I'll repeat what others have said in that he needs to give up that part and focus on being the head coach only, but I also know he won't do it even though the need is glaringly obvious at this point.
Someone upthread feared McVay has lost his edge. I'm hoping this is just a slump, which a coach can go through as much as a player can. But I'm definitely worried that it's more than a slump. This team has way too much talent to be 2-4 and losing to a perennial dogshit franchise like the Cardinals. But we are indeed 2-4, and underachieving across the board with no prospects for anything getting better.
Gawd, what a fucking shitshow of a season.
