Football genius? Sean is good but he doesn’t have players ready vs weaker teams.Snead drafted a weak QB instead of WR or O line player.Shld have won last 2 yrs but teams didn’t show vs ATL,Carolina,Seattle twice.Oughta been 3 SBs in 5 yrs & w the greatest player ever AD 2026-27 SB win.O coord shld not be McVay
My Rams are getting a Super Bowl win this season again here at home SOFI😉😁🏈🐏🍻. RAMS HOUSE 👍
we will see where the season goes….
Shoulda focused on getting ready for the season it looks like
So we got dunked on during TNF because our playcalls were ai? That's how the defense felt.
this taught us nothing. used mostly stock footage. good job Bari Weiss.
Mike MacDonald destroyed this man
I though McVay was a player on the team because he looks and is so young.
Super team and they're hurt.
Tool
The Rams need to stop reading their press clippings (or watching their video clips). Nobody ever won anything on paper. In the end, I think it might actually be good that they got boat raced in that first game. Maybe it will get the team their edginess back. I almost think that McVay made the decision to travel to Australia the day before the game because he knew what would happen and it’s part of his grand scheme to take the pressure of a perfect season off. I wouldn’t put that past him.
McVay this loss was all on you!! Shame on you for believing all the hype!! Now we get to see how the Rams react after getting punched in the mouth!!?
Let’s go L.A.RAMS!!!!!
McChoke must go. We win in spite of him, not because of him…
Who's here after the "super team" got the BTA by their Daddy like always 💥💥
Matt stafford not matthew , MATT
I know the horrible performance in Australia will only build this team stronger and we’ve got the leader in McVay that we can make it happen. Great segment from 60 minutes!
This is rams year going to be the first team to win 2 superbowls in their home stadium
I'd take Mike Macdonald 10 times out of 10 over Mcvay. Dude is an arrogant whiner
I'm a mcvay
Arron Donald decided to retire again after getting the Miles Garrett news. Jay Glazier just broke the news. Wtf??? He wouldn't have been any good amyways if he is depending on not being dbl teamed often because of Garrett. What a clown. Arron Donald is scared.
Go rams!
Bring out the champagne! The Superbowl MVP goes to Deshaun Watson! I bet they don't make the playoffs hahaha.
Get it fixd Sean.
Super team had super dud.. week 1😅
McVay for President.
Who’s here after rams got ramrodded infront of the world to see? Media crowns the wrong champions everytime.
So this is what they were doing instead of traveling to Australia
The Rams are special for trying to “hack the defense.” I wonder what all the other teams are doing!?
60 minutes just continues to get worse.
This aged like milk after flying to Australia 28 hours before a game. Cutting edge
Shanahan owns this joker
using AI is why we got blasted week 1 smh
Good god that voice is obnoxious. Go Hawks
thats my coach! ❤
He’s a different dude.
We shall see if they are in the super bowl 🏈
Team beats talent when talent isn't a Team. McVay is a good technician, but he's not a good culture guy (as evidenced by how they treated Coop on his way out).
It's only one game, but we may be looking at the unintended consequences of loading up on Talent. One, it doesn't guarantee chemistry; and two, it sends an underhanded message to the remaining players that they're not good enough (especially when you're overly intense and not the best culture guy like McVay).
CBS and LA Rams deserve each other, both losers. Seahawks and SF both own the Lambs…
most overrated and forced by the media coach of all time. dude is mid and a total lame. overly performative and totally unaccountable for his organizations mistakes. rams will be lucky to be a wildcard same as last year
Nobody watches 60 Seconds no more. Cowards. Ratings were horrible 😂😂😂
Sean McVay uses deception in his offense, forcing defenders to react to the wrong threat and creating open receivers in the process.
Why is the media obsessed with him. You could do a drinking game for every shot of him during a Rams game.
Dam ….this dude wound so tight he as not had a bowel movent in 5yrs
"We are wired to achieve." That sounds great. But a team's NOT going to achieve if it's wired to travel to Australia only 24-48 hrs. before a game. No wonder the 49ers trounced their in-state rival! The Rams were jet-lagged and disoriented. Not battering rams at all. The decision to wait until, literally, the last minute to travel Down Under (7,000+ miles) and TO expect optimal performance was Malpractice w/a capital M. The airing of this piece was very poorly timed. Imagine if the Rams lose to the Giants tom'w night to start the season 0-2. What'll be wired to achieve then??
He’ll be there another 10 years. The Rams will win one or two SBs and lose one or two. He’s good. Not special.
Narcissist
From "super team" to 0-2 and last place in the NFC West behind the Cardinals. 😂 Another "anointed one" failure. I was getting used to hearing about "Americas Meme" Dallas for the last 30 years and then oops, the season starts. After the Giants loss the rams fall into that category.
Coach McVay is football 24/7 😂😂
Goodbye hater comments
Rams fan since 1968… Fearsome Foursome days. Love McVay.. Loved that he took responsibility for the bad travel plans for Down Under. Great guy and we are back on track😎
