Rams' Coaching Continuity Fuels Championship Aspirations
24 Jul
Summary
- Rams have 20 wins since 5-12 season in 2022
- Coaching staff led by Sean McVay has remained largely intact since 2017
- McVay emphasizes trust and autonomy as keys to staff continuity
In the last few years, the Los Angeles Rams have emerged as a championship contender in the NFC, thanks in large part to the continuity of their coaching staff. Led by head coach Sean McVay, the Rams have maintained a consistent group of coordinators and assistants since 2017, including offensive coordinator Matt LaFluer, defensive coordinator Chris Shula, and special teams coordinator Chase Blackburn.
McVay, who took over the Rams at just 30 years old, has been instrumental in building a cohesive and collaborative coaching environment. He emphasizes trust and autonomy, allowing his coordinators and assistants to thrive in their respective roles. This approach has paid dividends, as the Rams have bounced back from a 5-12 season in 2022 to tally 20 wins since, putting them firmly in the hunt for a world title.
As the Rams enter a critical year, McVay believes the continuity of his coaching staff will be a significant advantage. With the same system and environment in place, the players and coaches have developed a strong level of trust and understanding, allowing the team to navigate even the most difficult circumstances.
