Well, I got to give my respect to Andy Reid, number one, right? And part of that is the extension of who you have as your coordinator.

And then number two, I think Sean McVay is a wizard. I really do.

Like, you know, the record is the record, and I think any time you listen to players talking about his way of communicating, motivating, having a team ready to play, he's had some bumps in the road, but he's also like our age, dude.

I mean, Vic has been like โ you know, if you had to take a head coaching job tomorrow like one of us did, we would probably hire a former head coach to be on the staff somewhere, right? Right.
