This sentence really stood out to me, just as you highlighted it, Mama.
"To one another". In other words, it wasn't just a coach telling the player how he was unhappy with the player, it went in the other direction as well.
Maybe McVay heard some things from Goff that he didn't want to hear, and that really stuck in his craw.
Pure speculation - maybe something like "yeah, well, if your redzone playcalling was up to your high standards, maybe we would have won some of those games. Maybe we would have been scoring TD's instead of FG's, and we wouldn't have been pressing later and committing turnovers. You haven't fixed that in 4 years either."
Maybe something like that.
At that point, McVay felt called out by Goff and then began to express himself in passive-aggressive ways, such as fawning praise for Rodgers and the other comments in the press.
I'm in the Silver/Bucky Brooks camp on this particular issue.
Hope Stafford does well with the Rams, but all the problems didn't get traded to Detroit.
