I mean, who is saying that? Besides us.

What credible sources are stating that after talking to teams around the league, it is clear that those with coaching searches are looking for a McVay.

I have seen nothing along those lines. So I think this whole "teams looking for a McVay" thing is apocryphal. It exists as a discussion topic among some Rams fans but has no reality outside of that.

So far the ones hired are Shurmur, Gruden, McDaniels and it looks like Patricia.

Doesn't look to me like teams are looking for a "McVay."

Disagree. It's a "copy cat" league. Always has been...Always will be. If you don't think other teams would be looking for the "next" McVay, you are sadly mistaken IMO. McVay is a possible COY. Why in the world would they not want to try and find a guy like that? That's what the NFL is bro. Everybody wants to find the "next" Bellicheat". Problem is nobody can cheat...(I mean coach) like Bellicheat. IMO, there isn't another "prodigy" like McVay either but that won't stop them from looking.


Well of course it's a copycat league. Show me the evidence, though, that it's McVay in particular who is being copied. I don't see any. Not speculation based on guesses. Actual evidence.

What I do see evidence of is people are hiring experienced veteran coaches (Gruden, Shurmur) and Bellichick coordinators (McDaniels, Patricia).

Show you the evidence?? Actual evidence lol. Let me contact my sources and get back to you. Just because it hasn't been reported, doesn't mean teams weren't looking. Do you have "actual evidence" that teams didn't even inquire about some young guns?? As I said, IMO, there isn't another McVay. So maybe they have looked but couldn't find anyone like him. Besides, nobody knew McVay would do as well as he did. The Rams "hoped" he would do well but I bet he even outshined their expectations.

The evidence you see "hiring experienced veteran coaches (Gruden, Shurmur) and Bellichick coordinators (McDaniels, Patricia)" does not prove teams have not tried to find the next McVay. McVay was the "hot new thing" this year just as was Shurmer. Bellicheats assistants are always sought after because the Pats are always "hot".

How do you explain the possible losses of some the Rams assistants so far? Olson, LaFleur? Can't find another McVay?? Grab his assistants. That's evidence enough for me. smiling smiley


What I heard was that teams lost interest in McVay when they realized he can't grow his beard longer than a half inch. That's it, that's him. That's all he can do.
