It’s ironic, isn’t it? The New England Patriots don’t have a coach with the title of defensive coordinator. The Los Angeles Rams don’t have a coach with the title of offensive coordinator.
Bill Belichick, head coach of the Patriots and Sean McVay, head coach of the Rams, are very involved in their respective teams’ defence and offence.
Following a three-point performance in Super Bowl 53, 33-year-old Sean McVay admitted he and his Rams were out-coached in Atlanta.
There is no shame in that when it comes to facing the Patriots. The 66-year-old Belichick is a football genius.
In Sunday’s 13-3 Patriots win, the pressure came from all over. Belichick devised a tremendous scheme taking away quarterback Jared Goff’s offensive options and passing abilities. That was, quite simply, the difference in the football game.
The Rams are young. They will be back. For right now, the Patriot dynasty rules the National Football League. We are witnessing dominance in the NFL that we may never see again.
