Hope we get this W. Tough game. I hope they have a good year. I really enjoy having McVay as a coach. Watching him on hard knocks made me a bigger fan. I just wonder if his personality isn’t more set up for an OC than a head coach.

Did we say that about him when he got us to the Super Bowl? He's a top 5 HC.

This is...an interesting take.

A little too interesting. McVay is revolutionizing head coaching in my opinion. He has transformed the culture here. I think players want to come here, etc.
A little too early to be jumping ship if you asked me, this is the toughest division in football and McVay has changed the culture.
I saw that Fisher is available to manage your fantasy team and feed your cat, glad those days are over.
 
Payton is edgy, Bill is edgy, Sean McVay seems like he’s everyone’s friend. Hard to maintain authority with your friends.
That is the dumbest thing I will read all weekend, so thank you for getting it out of the way. McVay's "edge" is his intelligence. If you can't see how intense that dude is, then I don't know what to tell you. I know I would be on my game if I was lucky enough to play for that guy. Good luck coming into this organization unprepared. Keep your shit packed morons and Me before We suckers. I love it. Quiet strength.

Also, Payton and his sphincter of a face are not "edgy", they are punchable. Nothing more, nothing less.

We haven’t exactly looked amazing since his first year. Insane we can’t discuss negatives on this site without the homerism getting overly strong. Like let’s call a spade a spade. McVays been out coached plenty of times by lesser coaches. I didn’t say he was a bad coach. I said it’d be nice to see him show so some fire excited of just gazing at the field in disbelief when something bad happens.
it’s not stupid.

you mean even in the next year when they made it to the superbowl?

plenty of negatives are discussed here. ludicrous on the other hand is getting called out.

any given sunday. nobody is saying he's perfect.

seriously man? did you see him after the whiners converted their second 3rd and 16 in the same drive to win the game? his face said no player or coach is safe and big changes are coming. then in the offseason the rams totally retooled the team.

McVay is very careful about the image he projects when on camera but I think that there’s another side to him that you don’t want to mess with. Despite being young McVay has been around and he’s smart enough to realize that dudes will take advantage if you let them. You don’t have to scream and foam at the mouth to get your point across. In one of the hard knocks episodes he asked Goff why it was taking so long, at first Goff didn’t understand but McVay kept needling him til he got it that he was being called out and it looked like it pissed Goff off a bit. McVay got rid of well liked members of the team and the staff, I wouldn’t mess with that dude.

I think you're reading him wrong. McVay isn't public about it but I guarantee you he gets into ass.

Look at that quick conversation he had with Goff. Dude has a really good feel for challenging his guys and it's probably why Gurley was sulking all last season (in addition to the dip in his play). I am sure he had McVay in his fucking ass about breaking runs to the sideline too quickly and missing holes.

I counted the first year as super bowl year oops. But nah he had that amazing year and has been out coached on numerous occasions. It’s cool tho. I don’t want you to get too sassy. So I’ll just agree. Sean just blankly stares when he’s mad.

we’ll see what happens this year. This rosters top heavy With a bad line. We’ll see how good of a coach he is.

that was really weird. Does anyone know what really happened with Gurley? Or is it all just speculation still?

Well the RB coach was fired too and he was a guy who was very tight with Gurley. So I don't have any knowledge of what went down but I am guessing there was probably some behind the scenes drama. Because especially in the first half of the season Gurley was leaving some yards on the field that's for sure.

I think McVay is a good example of how it's going to be done in the future. Get in that ass behind the scenes, but to the press and people watching it's all hugs and kisses.
