Hiring Sean McVay is one of the best decisions the Rams have ever made, quickly turning around the franchise after coming aboard in 2017. He’s led them to the playoffs twice and made it all the way to the Super Bowl in his second season, also helping develop Jared Goff into a better quarterback.
This season hasn’t been as impressive as last year was for the Rams, but after Sunday’s win over the Bengals, McVay managed to make yet another piece of NFL history. By beating the Bengals, McVay is now 10-0 against AFC opponents in the regular season.
He’s the first coach in league history to start his career 10-0 against the other conference, according to Andrew Siciliano.
McVay is now 29-11 in the regular season to start his career, including a 5-3 record this season. The Rams are still in third place in the division and looking up at both the 49ers and Seahawks. They’ll need a strong second half of the season to catch their division rivals, but the playoffs are hardly out of reach.
