Rams fans are not happy with Sean McVay.
Late in the fourth quarter of the Rams-Seahawks NFC championship game, McVay decided to go for it on 4th down while the team was down four points with five minutes left in the game.

After the game, McVay was devastated by the team’s loss.
“I’m pretty numb. I think the finality of all of it when you don’t allow yourself to think of anything other than advancing. … I’m never really short on words but I am now.”
“I love this team. I wasn’t ready to stop working with them… It’s as special of a group top-to-bottom as I’ve ever been around.”

Rams fans believed McVay’s decision-making cost the team a shot at the Super Bowl.
No one will agree here … but take the points. Make it 31-30. There’s five minutes left. You have to get a stop regardless to get the ball or win the game. They Seattle defense hasn’t stopped you all 2H. Make a FG win it. I just don’t get these coaches man …

Sean McVay’s worst coaching job since the Super Bowl against the Patriots.
So many decisions made absolutely no sense. Not even just in hindsight.
– Kick the field goal
– Don’t waste time outsBoth of those were simple calls.
