Wade Philips?

NFL Network's Michael Silver has heard from "multiple sources" that a "shakeup" is expected for Sean McVay's coaching staff this offseason.

The Rams underachieved greatly in 2019, following up last year's Super Bowl loss to New England by missing the playoffs altogether. As is usually the case when teams fall well short of expectations, the Rams are sure to face consequences for this year's failure with coaching and personnel changes both distinct possibilities. Defensive coordinator Wade Phillips appears to be a goner while even workhorse back Todd Gurley is no lock to return in 2020. Seeming supplanted by the 49ers and Seahawks in the NFC West, L.A.'s title window is dangerously close to slamming shut.

 

Anybody want him as our DC next year? Get a offensive mind for our HC and get Wade to man our D and we could have a respectable year next year. I thought it was interesting to read that all but one of the defenses Wade Phillips has coached has improved in his first season on the job. Not to mention he kicked our ass in the superbowl. Would not mind at all if we brought him in.

He has long been associated with 34 D's.  Maybe he could help us figure out what we want to run since our potpourri defense has not worked out so well

Exactly what I was thinking. If Tepper is keen on keeping this 3-4 defense, then bringing in Wade who excels in 3-4 would be perfect for us. Wouldn't have to change our defensive philosophy yet again and could keep focusing on the 3-4.

Depends on HC ...but Wade can coach 4-3...

    • That's my biggest concern with making him the 2C.  You split up the Aho Jarvis bromance that accounted for a lot of points.  If Jarvis excels as a C, it could help the team even more though.
    • The Saints being that high is the one that killed me. Chris Olave might not know his name at this point, Shaheed is coming off injury as well, so 31 year old Brandin Cooks might be your best WR...coming off a 260 yard season over 10 games. Kamara is Kamara, but didn't have 1,000 yards last year and is about to turn 30.  Toss in the fact that Taysom Hill may be the best QB on the team and I truly don't understand Barnwell's thoughts beside seeing the names "Olave" and "Kamara" and going yep, that sounds better than "Chuba" and "Thielen". 
    • Now now now, I wouldn't say there is no logic, but there's just not a lot of in-depth thought put into Barnwell's  "analysis." Now to be fair to him (and other national writers), pre-season team rankings are basically clickbait. And...Barnwell, himself, said that "there's a lot of projection here." He basically admits that he doesn't know how the hell things are going to turn out with our receiver group. He also said that "I find myself" more intrigued by Coker than Legette; that does not mean that he said that fans should be, or that Coker will even be better than Legette (regardless of ESPN's per-route-run stat). So, yeah, Barnwell said some things, but even he has to basically admit that he doesn't know how bad or good that our playmakers will be in 2025.  Overall, what Barnwell is basically thinking is that the Panthers have gotten worse at the offensive skill positions, and baked into that is that others have gotten better. That's the argument in July (meaning, please don't give this any more weight than it's due). I would personally be surprised (not shocked) if we end up worse than the Titans, Pats and Giants at least. Once you throw in the Bills, Giants, Jets, Steelers, and even the Chargers, I personally think there are several teams' skill groups that may end up ranked lower than ours by the end of 2025.  @kungfoodudeis one of my dudes, but like others he is over the tipping point. He's had enough. Seeing is believing. I will say this though: Barnwell's piece is less about logic than just good ol' opinion. And to be honest, he might as well be a Huddler throwing out sh¡t in the summer based upon nothing but good feels or bad feels.  Our offense as a whole (just like any other team's) is going to depend upon the play of the O-line and especially the QB. How you can even rank the skill positions without expressly baking those two things in the cake is beyond me. I would dare say that that's not even logical.
