Maybe I'm way off and McVay simply wanted his players to embellish the moment with the trophy because he thought they earned it more than he did.

FWIW, I do think you are way off on this take that they earned it more than he did. I took it that he didn't want to take away time from the players (if they wanted to hold it) as a true players' coach. I do agree with the take that the Halas trophy shouldn't be the focus, because he thinks they ain't done yet.
