LA Rams: HC Sean McVay happy? “You’re damned right I am”

“Better mood this offseason? You’re damn right I am”

This is his blueprint. This is his spreadsheet with his formulae. This is his baby. He’s no longer working on somebody else’s house. Some have pointed out that the reason for Sean McVay’s happy mood this year is tied to no longer facing the frustration of working with quarterback Jared Goff.

"““I think I’ve been very happy,” McVay said Thursday while on stage at a news conference for the Los Angeles Super Bowl Organizing Committee. “Everybody says, ‘Man, you just seem like you’re in a better mood this offseason.’ I say, ‘You’re damn right I am.’”-per Sean McVay as reported by APNews Greg Beacham"

Is the emotion spike simply getting rid of his problem-child quarterback? Hardly. That would be a relief, calm, no pressure. Joy is something entirely different. He wanted to work with Matthew Stafford in his offense, and now he can.

It was pretty clear that the LA Rams paid a bit of a premium for the rights to acquire Matthew Stafford. And until the LA Rams play real NFL regulation football, it’s all speculation. Yep. I can’t change the rules of time and physics. But I can read the signs that are expressed in the face of head coach Sean McVay. He finally believes that this is his team: his coaching staff, his coordinators, and most of all, his quarterback. That’s a huge step up for the Rams head coach, and it’s only taken him five years to realize.

Let’s put it this way. If McVay could get 43-21 with a quarterback who was never his first choice, what do you think will happen this year with a quarterback who was so singularly his choice that he personally lobbied the team’s owner to make it happen?  I suppose it comes down to your opinion of the coach, doesn’t it? Well, one thing is certain. This appears to be fun for the head coach of the LA Rams once more.
