IMO, this might be Morris's last year here as DC. Not because he will get a HC gig, because we all know he won't. but because I think McVay will want to move on. Maybe McVay will feel bad for Morris and make him an "assistant HC" or something like that just so he can still be paid.
I am going to disagree here because I believe the defense will be a work in progress, but as the year moves along, it will improve propelling Morris into conversations about being a Head Coach and I could see him landing in Washington next year. The Rams have a better secondary coach in Pleasant, they have also added Jimmy Lake a Morris guy plus the coaching of the linebackers should be better with Navy Assistant Joe Coniglio & Chris Shula back where he belongs add in Eric Henderson is still coaching the DL and I expect growing pains in the beginning, but by season's end I expect the defense to much improved.
As to Morris and him leaving, that is also possible by either being elevated by McVay as you communicated or IMO, given an opportunity in an organization like Washington in an executive or possible even Head Coaching position because I believe they will make a change there to start anew and Morris would be the perfect HC for that particular scenario which will not just be based on wins & losses.
