Accepting the offensive coordinator job for the Los Angeles Rams is a double-edged sword: On one hand, you will immediately rise to the top of lists for prospective head coaching candidates in the future. It worked for Matt LaFleur and Kevin O’Connell, whereas Zac Taylor rose from QBs coach to leading the Cincinnati Bengals. On the other, the Rams’ OC job is mostly just a title and you’ll do as Sean McVay says you’ll do.
Is that going to be the case in 2023 though after McVay decided to return for another season despite serious consideration of early retirement?
