I understand the square peg through a round hole idea, it's time to make an adjustment or go to something new. But, I see McVay doing his best job of being a HC this season. Like some of the play calls or not.

But, it's hard to argue...

McVay...42-19...Regular season record.
McVay...2-2...Post season record
Rams in playoffs 3-4 years.

Well I ain't saying fire him.

But I am looking forward to seeing him develop so that he improves in the area I am talking about. It's directly related to their most crucial losses, including the superbowl.

I doubt McVay himself sees his own coaching as being beyond the need for some improvements.

...

I believe his first three years the focus was to build such a level of execution from the base 11 P set that answers to every defensive problem existed within the framework of the offense. It's possible that it could've worked with a stellar OLine but that didn't happen.

I just think McVay didn't have other options developed, repped, and available. But this year he has expanded the approach so that he doesn't HAVE to bang his head due to a lack of alternatives. For example, he ran the counter trey ONCE, and it was well choreographed and successful. Now he can rep it to the other side. He can use the guard/tackle pull instead of the guard/TE pull. He can develop various traps that Kromer knows quite well. They can even run play action off them.

What he can't do is throw too much at them at the same time. I truly believe he would already have more approaches available if COVID hadn't limited the number of physical reps that are necessary. But make no mistake, he has been expanding the offense gradually.

Here's to hoping he doesn't feel limited to banging repeatedly into the wall in the same manner anymore this year.
