Very interesting interview of McVay.

First Jourdan very strategically avoids trade topic at ~6:20mark
https://youtu.be/VEpcnfuWxk8?t=384

McVay is clearly uncomfortable and fidgeting. He has prepared notes about all the positive things he wants to say about Goff. This is both damage control and being classy to acknowledge all that him and Goff have been through in a positive way. Awesome response McVay!

Gary goes back to it ~13:30 mark:

Tough question calling out his statements about hoping Jared is stuck with him a long time.
McVay takes a deep breath and says "whoof". McVay says he has learned not to make blanket statements. Appreciates Goff and wishes him the best.

Gary continues brings up Jared mentioning he wasn't wanted. McVay says they've talked at ~15:15 mark. Says he wishes he was better for Goff in some instances. (meaning sometimes his fault and sometimes not).

Most interesting piece of the whole conversation is when McVay says they had "healthy open and honest conversations and those details I'd prefer to keep between us". One very specific conversation we've all read about. Dying to know what was said. I'm thinking more and more that Goff stood up to McVay or called him out on something.

Goff in a different interview said something along the lines of if you aren't communicating your are creating a problem meaning that they needed to be talking through issues they both felt and maybe finally did.

Different reporter asks how much was the personel changing around goff at the ~29 mark.

McVay defending Goff (hence why the title that Ram43 was using). Puts it back on himself. Team sport. QB not the complete reason for success or failure.
It takes coaches and players being connected and on the same page. We've seen that a phrasing a lot.

Lindsay asks again about Gary's comments. What could McVay had done better? McVay mentions real-time communications. We can only guess if he means that he wasn't giving Goff the Feedback on his displeasure as the season went on OR his in game communication that was too flustered and confusing? Play calling?

Very interesting interview. I feel like McVay is looking more like the guy we saw 2 years ago. More humble. More insightful. More rested. You could tell this season was stressing him out. He feels good right night now after a taking some time in Cabo.
