    Caught up with Cooper Kupp this morning on behalf of Pataday and among a few noteworthy items, he said that over the 2021 season he saw Sean McVay step into an entire new zone as a collaborator. “We’ve talked about it for years now, but his willingness to listen to the comforts,

    things. I think he just did an unbelievable job. He’s one of the smartest offensive-minded coaches I’ve ever seen. And for him to just put us in those positions over and over again, in those great spots where you’re set up to win, is a huge testament to him…He did do a great

    I was thinking about the way McV berated Goff in 2021 and messed with his confidence. McV seemed to be aware of this after the trade and confessed that he had issues communicating. When they traded for Stafford I said one of the advantages of having a great veteran qb was that McV would be more collaborative and listen better. McV showed signs of going that direction when he lamented that he wasn’t the best communicator in 2021 and seemed to actually regret it. As it turns out as Kupp’s remarks above indicate, McV really did become more collaborative. I think it was a combo of having a veteran qb he would be stupid not to listen to, and at the same time McV kind of lamenting the way he was in 2021 and knowing he had to change.

    I don’t know how much of that I got right, but, still, it was nice to read Kupp and see I wasn’t hallucinating all of that.

    Jordan R is awfully good at her job.

    High praise from Kupp.  Thats not just ordinary sports-BS and cliches he’s giving.   That mcvay-trait Kupp is describing was critical last year.
