Mcvay is leading the horse to water on offense at least There's been some debate about his play calls. And while the 4th and 1 last night is deservedly scrutinized, last night was yet another example of our offensive woes his players failing him and not the play calling. I counted 11-15 points let off due to missed field goals (would've been a closer field goal of not for Kyren's drop), fumbles (Corum in 9er territory which was 3-7 points minimum and Kyren at the goaline which is another 7), and blocked extra points. So we scored 23 but left 11-15 points off the scoreboard, bringing us to what should have been 34-38 points. The eagles game was similar, as was the Texans' game. All in all it seems like Mcvay is dealing, but his players are failing.https://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?19,1192060,1192060#msg-1192060Sun, 19 Jul 2026 12:19:27 -0400 Phorum 5.2.18 https://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?19,1192060,1192810#msg-1192810 Is that accurate?https://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?19,1192060,1192810#msg-1192810

This. ^ ^ ^ ^ ^

How many McVay's OC's have tired of carrying his water?

He is hesitant to give up control, or delegate, and within that, perseverates. He may see all the details of a broad perspective when not under stress, but under stress hyperfocuses within it.

How many coordinators have grown tired of him? Maybe Matt lafleur since he took a lateral move elsewhere. Other than that, every coordinator Mcvay has lost has either been because they got hired for head coaching jobs. I wouldn't say that s growing tired.]]> Ram_Ruler RamsFootballFans.comTue, 07 Oct 2025 06:45:21 -0400 https://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?19,1192060,1192809#msg-1192809 Re: Mcvay is leading the horse to water on offense at leasthttps://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?19,1192060,1192809#msg-1192809

Stafford was the main reason they had a chance to make field goals or kick the blocked or missed kicks.
I wouldn't give McVay too much credit.

You can say that for every play caller in the league. Also Stafford missed some gimmes in both the Philly game and the San Francisco game.]]> Ram_Ruler RamsFootballFans.comTue, 07 Oct 2025 06:43:12 -0400 https://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?19,1192060,1192796#msg-1192796 Re:McVay needs an OC who can call plays while McVay can focus on managing the game.https://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?19,1192060,1192796#msg-1192796

he also missed a ton of easy throws in Philly that most likely lost the game...and McVay didn't fumble at the goal line vs SF


I would'nt give McVay too much blame either]]> Rampage2k RamsFootballFans.comMon, 06 Oct 2025 23:27:59 -0400 https://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?19,1192060,1192774#msg-1192774 Re: Mcvay is leading the horse to water on offense at leasthttps://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?19,1192060,1192774#msg-1192774I wouldn't give McVay too much credit.]]> sfbayram RamsFootballFans.comMon, 06 Oct 2025 21:58:15 -0400 https://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?19,1192060,1192708#msg-1192708 I've said it too many timeshttps://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?19,1192060,1192708#msg-1192708

It's McVay's play calling that has every team ready yo make it a close harder than it needs to be game for the Rams.

I've seen McVay run go three and out to start drives way too many time.
McVay had almost no plays in the first half where the Rams receivers weren't not voveres like a blanket on a winter night.
McVay has 40% or less 3 down conversion percentage.
McVay has a horrible red zone success rate.
I'm sure there is more.
I understand being conservative but he needs to spread the ball around the field more.
Ferguson has one pass for 21 yards.
No excuse for trading up and not using him.
Demarcus Robinson should have got more reps when he played for the Rams and there are many others.
McVay is incapable of taking advantage of the fact each team has 53 players in the roster.

it seems like there is a missing sense of urgency with McVay.

They only score when they have to, late in the game. Or when they are up against the clock, like last 2 minutes of the half.

If there is not an outside force creating some urgency, we try to establish the run and often go 3 and out.

It really seems our defense has kept us in most games. It seems like every week in the first half we feel like we should be down by 30, But somehow we're only down by 10.

Rinse and repeat the last 3 years. Not to mention if we lose this week we are 3-3. Sound familiar?
Mcvay mentioned wanting to take what the defense gives him. I wonder if the slow starts are due to him trying to figure out defenses' game-plan on the fly.]]> Ram_Ruler RamsFootballFans.comMon, 06 Oct 2025 13:35:20 -0400 https://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?19,1192060,1192618#msg-1192618 Re: Mcvay is leading the horse to water on offense at leasthttps://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?19,1192060,1192618#msg-1192618 sfbayram RamsFootballFans.comMon, 06 Oct 2025 00:24:23 -0400 https://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?19,1192060,1192519#msg-1192519 Re: Mcvay is leading the horse to water on offense at leasthttps://ramsrule.com/herd/read.php?19,1192060,1192519#msg-1192519

exactly, but it's much easier just to blame the coach...c'mon man get with the times :spintounge



at the end of the day McVay has to coach them better how to catch, how to throw , how to block, how to tackle and how to carrry the football

The look on mcvay's face when corum fumbled was scary. Looked like my entered a fugue state.

Drops, missed blocks, penalties, etc. Stafford is carving teams up and they just can't close the deal. Would just like to see 60 minutes of good offensive football.
