Random Ramsdom: This head coach power ranking has Sean McVay at #2

Los Angeles Rams News and Links for 4/3/25

A power ranking done by the highly recognized football source MSN recently placed Sean McVay at #2 on its head coaching power ranking. Being ranked so high (more or less regardless of who does the ranking) is a feat.

I think McVay is one of the best coaches in the entire NFL, and so you will get no argument from me. I am still not sure people fully understand how horrific the Rams were roughly after Kurt Warner and Marc Bulger. Sam Bradford tried, heck even Nick Foles tried, but the situation for the Rams was rough as they went through head coach and quarterback alike.

Then McVay came and Jared Goff and now Matthew Stafford.

Anyways, go Rams, go McVay and have a great Thursday! Thanks for checking out Turf Show Times!

“3) John Harbaugh, Baltimore Ravens

The other Harbaugh brother has been one of the top head coaches in the NFL since the Ravens hired him in 2008, winning the Super Bowl in 2012. Furthermore, he has won double-digit games in six of the past seven seasons, including 12 or more three times.

2) Sean McVay, Los Angeles Rams

Whenever an NFL team fires its head coach, it is looking for the next McVay. He has been one of the top head coaches since taking over the Rams in 2017 at the age of 31. McVay has had only one losing season in eight years, making two Super Bowl appearances.

1) Andy Reid, Kansas City Chiefs

Reid might go down in NFL history as the top head coach of all time. He has made six Super Bowl appearances during his 26 years as the head coach of the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs, winning three of the past six titles.”

Revisiting the Rams’ history with the 26th overall pick in the draft (ramswire)

“The 2025 NFL draft is rapidly approaching, and in less than a month, the Los Angeles Rams will be on the clock with the 26th overall pick, marking the first time since 2015 and 2016 that the Rams will have picked in Round 1 in consecutive drafts.

Throughout their history in Los Angeles (1946–1994, 2016–present), the Rams have 26th overall four times. Here’s a look back at those four selections.

RB Cleveland Gary, 1989

During the 1988 NFL draft, the Rams selected a hometown product in Gaston Green, an All-American running back from UCLA in the first round. Green lasted three seasons in LA, rushed for just 451 yards, and never scored a touchdown. One year after Green rushed for just 117 yards in 10 games during his rookie season, the Rams decided to swing for another player to carry the rock, selecting Cleveland Gary 26th overall in 1989.”

“We thought Davante Adams would be a possibility,” McVay said on who they thought would replace Kupp, via TheAthletic.com. “We don’t know, you know, he’s going to have other interests. There was a possibility we were gonna re-sign Tutu Atwell, but we didn’t know at the time. I think the most important thing was when we had made the decision that we were gonna seek a trade or at least grant him his release, that was very quickly after the season, which I thought he deserved that clarity in regard to the direction we were going. Now, exactly why all those things occurred, there had to be a little bit of time to be able to provide the appropriate context. That wasn’t applicable in the moment.”
