Jim Leonhard someone to keep an eye on. Someone had to be the Scapegoat, sure wasn't going to be McVay! It's not like his offense Regressed or anything? 🙄 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They finished 8th overall in DVOA, 9th against the pass and 8th against the run vs. the 3rd toughest DVOA schedule. Yeah. It's a big, hair-on-fire, over-reactionary, mistake by McVay. Stupid, stupid, move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Barry is sucktastic either ways. But why was it time? I thought I read the Rams DVOA ranking was better this year than last year, like top 10 good, and pieces were acquired to fit his scheme. Why all of a sudden is it time to let him go? We won’t even get into the fact that his replacement sounds like it’ll be Joe Barry. Dont get me wrong, I’m not the biggest fan of Saleh or his coaching/scheming ability, but we finally got players worth talking about for him and stayed relatively healthy leading to an improved defense this year. But I doubt many niner fans, myself included, would be agreeing with letting Saleh walk because he had some rough games and had years, literal years, of underachieving before this one. And again, I’m not that big of a Saleh fan. There has to be more to this, I thought I read some where the Rams fired their, or should I say Wade’s good friend and DL coach without consulting him at all. Is there something there that caused a rift of sorts? Edited January 6, 2020 by Fureys49ers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there something there that caused a rift of sorts? McVay wanted to go a different, younger direction, and most of us fans were expecting it after Wade's defense laid eggs in big games down the stretch. Also, I'm not buying that it's Joe Barry until the words have come out of McVay's mouth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He always comes in and upgrades a defense year 1, then a few years down the line all of his guys turn on him, the defense collapses and he gets fired. He might be like Larry Brown, head coach in the NBA. Might be a rough and tough coach that eventually rubs players the wrong way and he needs a change of scenery.

Players love him, but his units end up lacking discipline and structure the longer he stays. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His training camp for the Cowboys was labeled "Camp Cupcake" by the media. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
