Sean McVay addresses Rams fans, accepts responsibility for special teams turmoil
The Los Angeles Rams are poised to turn a new page as they enter a transformative phase under head coach Sean McVay. With an eye on improvement, the team’s Special Teams unit is at the forefront of McVay’s agenda.
McVay Takes Ownership of Special Teams Struggles
During a recent press conference, McVay was candid about the state of the Rams’ Special Teams. Following the dismissal of Special Teams Coordinator Chase Blackburn just a week prior, McVay was questioned about his involvement with this critical aspect of the game.
In a surprising admission, McVay took full responsibility for the unit’s shortcomings, stating, “I feel like it all falls on me.” This declaration not only reflects his commitment to accountability but also underscores the urgency with which he is approaching the upcoming season.
The decision to part ways with Blackburn marks a significant shift for the Rams. It highlights McVay’s recognition of the pressing need for improvement in a department that has faced persistent challenges. By stepping into a more hands-on role, McVay aims to revitalize the Special Teams and prevent further missteps.
As the Rams prepare for the next chapter, McVay’s leadership will be crucial in steering the team toward success. The upcoming season will undoubtedly be a test of his resolve and ability to foster a culture of excellence within all facets of the organization, especially as they look to mend the issues that have plagued their Special Teams play in recent times.
