With that information well received within the Los Angeles Rams organization, head coach Sean McVay has now set clear expectations on the team\u2019s offseason.<\/p>\n<p data-testid=\"paragraph\" class=\"mb-[20px] md:mb-[30px] break-word\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bolavip.com\/en\/topic\/sean-mcvay\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" class=\"break-word font-articleLinkText text-articleLinkText hover:text-articleLinkTextHover hover:bg-articleLinkTextHoverBg cursor-pointer border-solid border-b-articleLinkTextHover\">McVay<\/a> spoke to Gary Klein of the L.A. Times. He said, \u201cThat\u2019s the start to everything, is your quarterback position. And to be able to have a guy that\u2019s playing as good as he\u2019s ever played \u2014\u00a0and it\u2019s sustainable,\u201d McVay honestly stated. \u201cYou start all over, but man, when he says he\u2019s in, that gives you a lot of confidence and excitement of how we can move forward.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-testid=\"paragraph\" class=\"mb-[20px] md:mb-[30px] break-word\">McVay also spoke on the fact that <a href=\"https:\/\/bolavip.com\/en\/topic\/matthew-stafford\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" class=\"break-word font-articleLinkText text-articleLinkText hover:text-articleLinkTextHover hover:bg-articleLinkTextHoverBg cursor-pointer border-solid border-b-articleLinkTextHover\">Stafford<\/a> won the MVP. \u201cSo, really happy for him. He\u2019s the most humble superstar I\u2019ve ever been around, and it\u2019s really cool. So if we can\u2019t be playing, this is a good consolation process.\u201d McVay is a massive fan of Stafford and feels the team can win it all with him under center.<\/p>\n<p>Stafford was on a whole other level this season<\/p>\n<p data-testid=\"paragraph\" class=\"mb-[20px] md:mb-[30px] break-word\">Almost solidifying himself as a Hall of Famer by winning the MVP, the fact is that Stafford was incredibly effective in 2025. Stafford completed 65% of his passes for a league-leading 4,707 yards and 46 touchdowns. He also had a 109.2 passer rating. Stafford was genuinely outstanding.<\/p>\n<p data-testid=\"paragraph\" class=\"mb-[20px] md:mb-[30px] break-word\">Much was said about the future of Stafford. In the last offseason, Stafford suffered a serious back injury and that put him in jeopardy and his career was put into questioned. However, the fact is he not only recovered, but deliver his best season ever. <\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Matthew Stafford wins first NFL MVP at 37: How many had Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers claimed at his age?\" href=\"https:\/\/bolavip.com\/en\/nfl\/matthew-stafford-wins-first-nfl-mvp-at-37-how-many-had-tom-brady-and-aaron-rodgers-claimed-at-his-age\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" class=\"article-also-read-embed\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aspect-square max-w-[100px] m-[10px] md:m-0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/matthew-stafford-200x200.webp.webp\" alt=\"Matthew Stafford wins first NFL MVP at 37: How many had Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers claimed at his age?\" width=\"200\" height=\"200\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/p>\n<p class=\"font-secondary my-[13px] uppercase text-alsoReadSeeAlso bg-alsoReadSeeAlsoBackground alsoReadSeeAlso w-fit\">see also<\/p>\n<p class=\"w-full line-clamp-3 md:line-clamp-2 text-alsoReadEmbedTitle font-primary alsoReadLink\">Matthew Stafford wins first NFL MVP at 37: How many had Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers claimed at his age?<\/p>\n<p><\/a>McVay is going all in with expectations<\/p>\n<p data-testid=\"paragraph\" class=\"mb-[20px] md:mb-[30px] break-word\">A <a href=\"https:\/\/bolavip.com\/en\/nfl\/sean-mcvay-gets-honest-about-matthew-stafford-and-davante-adams-future-for-the-rams-after-loss-to-the-seahawks\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" class=\"break-word font-articleLinkText text-articleLinkText hover:text-articleLinkTextHover hover:bg-articleLinkTextHoverBg cursor-pointer border-solid border-b-articleLinkTextHover\">while back, Sean McVay also said what he expected the team to do with Davante Adams<\/a>. One thing is for sure, McVay hates to lose. He has the Rams as a top-tier team and the fact is he might be right.<\/p>\n<p data-testid=\"paragraph\" class=\"break-word\">The offense is great and experienced, while the defense is elite and young.
