Here's a prime example of McVay taking the blame for something that really isn't his fault.
I disagree. It was his fault. Goff was having an off day against a D dedicated to taking away the pass to the point of sacrificing the run D.
So on 3rd and 3 in FG range, they call a pass when at a minimum, a run would keep the FG range reasonable.
Instead they lose 10 yards and miss the FG.
The issue there was calling a pass in that situation under all those combined conditions.
He was right to be self-critical of that.
If all McV's self-criticisms do is get chalked up as "well he does that" then they are meaningless, and don't accomplish what they're supposed to accomplish, which is to hold everyone accountable, starting with the head coach.
No one is being held accountable if his public self-criticism is just bs.
