Between these 3 key figures on the Rams, who is the most important?
On Father’s Day, it’s as good of a time as any to ask patriarchal-related questions about the Los Angeles Rams. Between these three men and these three alone, who do you think is the most important, most powerful, and most valuable person on the Rams right now:
Quarterback Matthew Stafford. The quarterback who flipped L.A.’s playoff luck around in 2021 (and his own) by winning the Super Bowl in his first season.
Head coach Sean McVay. The head coach who inherited a team that had been 4-12 the year before his start and hadn’t won a playoff game in 13 years, but has since made the playoffs six times in either years.
General manager Les Snead. The general manager who started his job the year after the Rams went 2-14 and who made draft decisions like Aaron Donald, Todd Gurley, and Cooper Kupp, as well as bold trades. If not for Snead, would there even be a McVay or a Stafford?
But without McVay, would Stafford have won his first playoff game in 13 years?
But without Stafford, would McVay have ever won the Super Bowl?
Choosing between McVay, Stafford, and Snead might be like choosing a favorite between your three sons. Do it anyway.
Who do you think has the most power, influence, and value to the Rams? Who is the most important?
