McVay appeared on Albert Breer’s MMQB NFL Podcast this week and was asked where he thinks he’ll be in 10-15 years.

“That’s a good question. Hopefully still with the Rams unless I’ve gotten myself so worked up that I wasn’t feeling good enough to still coach,” McVay said.

Breer quickly responded by asking if burning out is something the coach has to worry about, since that’s something he’s heard about McVay before.

“Yeah, absolutely it is,” McVay said. “That’s something that I do need to be aware of because if you’re not careful – I just know the way that I’m going at it, you’re like, realistically, this isn’t the right way to do it, but you’re such a grinder and it’s kind of being able to step back, being still is going to be a key thing. And I am confident that we’ll be able to achieve a better balance and will lead to more sustainability moving forward.”

As McVay has grown as a coach in the last three years, he’s learned the importance of having a work-life balance. That will become even more apparent in the future, too, after he gets married and starts a family.

“The other thing, too, is what I’ve really seen from a lot of my close friends, once you get into that point where, hey, I’m gonna get married next year, obviously want to be able to have kids. That perspective of, all right, now you’ve got a real reason to live when you’ve got a family, you’ve got something else,” he said. “I think that balance and that appreciation for those things where it’s not just all football will help toward a goal of just being able to sustain and be healthier overall.”

HelliePod pays a visit to Sean McVay’s backyard. The Rams Head Coach talks

On The Helliepod Podcast with Dan Hellie, McVay shared his feelings about camp being about a week away and how he foresees things playing out.

“Usually when you get about a week out – and right now, that’s exactly where we’re at – you start to get revved up, get excited,” McVay said. “And there’s something about this time that you know the amount of things that have to take place for that to logistically get off and get going. Something about it tells me maybe there’s a chance that things get moved back. And that’s what’s weird, because you want to make sure – hey, if we’re going, we’re ready to roll, we’re locked in.”

It seems like he wouldn’t be surprised to see the schedule tweaked in some manner.

“What I’ve been telling our people is, ‘Hey, we’re going to have a great plan, whether we get a chance to execute that plan now or a little bit later remains to be seen,”’ McVay said. “But I am confident we will have a season, we’ll be able to play football. Whether or not it goes exactly on the schedule that we’ve all seen, that’s something that I’m a little skeptical of right now.”
