NFL Training Camp tour continues onto the West Coast as we visit our South California friends sitting down with Rams Head Coach Sean McVay who is the youngest head coach to win a Super Bowl and looking to get his team back in winning form after last year's 5-12 season.
Transparently, McVay shares with Ryan, Channing and Fred on how the process has been from battling trials and tribulations as a young coach while climbing the ranks quickly and successfully, but with all the highs come some lows to accept, adjust and move forward from. Reflecting on the Super Bowl run and a roster full of talent for that 2021 team and how winning the Lombard is the pinnacle for that year but isn't the only measurement of success overall.
McVay talks about how the Rams losing season last year grounded them and offered a reset to start the journey again. Being reminded of why he loves coaching, his purpose in the game and impact on the players and coaches is what keeps him motivated and going back to the daily grind.
With more than 35 rookies on the roster this camp, McVay is excited about the energy and chance to mold these players into winning ways and learning from veterans on the team. Ryan asks about the special players on past rosters and in particular they talk about Odell Beckham Jr and what made him rare, both on and off the field. McVay shares some insight into OBJ and shares a differet side of him that most people don't realize.
With QB Matthew Stafford working through injury to get back on the field, McVay understands the expectations that come with returning to the big game and wants his coaches and players all working for the same goal.

McVay is literally one of the greatest speakers, period. He’s a sharp dude. Those Rams have a pillar in their hands 💯

[@jamesonedwardsii4943]

I’ve noticed the coaches in pro sports always give better interviews than the players 😅

[@harry0042]

I’ve been saying the same thing since his 1st podium interview. He’s sharp as a tac. As a St Louis Rams fan. He’s creating a culture with Les I’m proud of. Go Rams

[@SCBB24]

Idk he was kinda long winded to me but I ain’t mad at nobody for being tuned in

[@erniebyrd1244]

Very sharp and stand up coach.

[@Only_One_Veezy]

@@SCBB24 Oh he’s DEFINITELY long winded lol. But not in an annoying way for me 🤣

[@crowhurd]

What Sean does better than anyone I’ve ever seen is use people’s names while talking to them.

[@RamsHouse102]

Yeah, especially in press conferences lol

[@TH1NK_BLU3_495]

Facts bro my man is sharp af I forget ppls names not even 10 seconds after meeting them 😂

[@bshayc79]

Yeah you can tell he's conditioned himself to do that. A quality I have trouble with myself, but I've always respected it.

[@qmakesithappen]

What I took away from this interview is how articulate Sean is. He answered every question leaving zero confusion! He could have a career in keynote speaking or sports commentary if he wanted 💯 Another dope interview fellas!

[@wilburn20]

It is very impressive can’t lie

[@kendalllodman]

How can you not love the Pivot?! This show allows every guest to be seen and perceived in a different light. The guests always feel comfortable with RC, Fred, and Channing to naturally be themselves and speak with transparency, honesty, and vulnerability.

[@AK1892]

Oke of the Main reasons why i havent watcher a debate show in yrs

[@SupermanHopkins]

That impromptu conversation at the end -- with four OGs standing around and chopping it up -- is why the Pivot is undeniable.

[@ShelbyBaby27]

You know the interview is good when they can't say goodbye to each other. They filmed another 10mins while standing trying to exit 😂😂😂

[@melissa1089]

I just love how all 3 of you interview your guests. You work off one another so well. Respect

[@melrams9293]

[@ryan30neal14]

I see why Sean Mcvay moved up to head coach quicker than anybody else ever has in NFL history. His attention to detail, charisma, and the way he presents himself is remarkable. I’m only 23 but his social awareness and ability to talk with anyone in the room with such substance in every word just oozes from the screen. I hope I’m able to talk like this one day especially in interview settings 😂

[@mozarross9960]

I like how he acknowledged his opportunities afforded to him others were not. That is emotional intelligence!

[@barak-rocky-giles2081]

Exactly. There's nothing wrong with acknowledging facts. Especially for in his situation because he can be like "I definitely have had opportunities that not everyone has, but I've made the most of each one too and not everyone does that either."

[@Trenchbaby32]

This felt like a barbershop conversation lol love it 😂

[@keitholtmans5916]

I would love to see these guys get Randy Moss on The Pivot!

[@acewest396]

Yes!!! WE NEED RANDY!

[@bryanmorales1439]

Adrian peterson?

[@gc033]

I agree! Randy Moss would be the prefect guest on the Pivot💪

[@Pacman_Hawkins]

I would like to see Russ Westbrook

[@chrisbelcher1433]

[@John-wf5if]

McVays face when they mention Gurley. Man, Todd was a baller in his prime.

[@writehand_ko]

I like how humble coach is with how he reflects on his experiences that led to a super bowl

[@tonygrace3435]

I love our coach man! Rams 4 life! I wish he could be our lifetime coach

As 49ers fan. The hate I have for the rams is beyond this world. That being said. Nothing but respect to coach McVay. That superbowl run is legendary.

[@nickcastelao6879]

How does it feel losing to us in the NFC championship game.

You know his grandpa was part of the reason the niners had their Super Bowl success

[@madamcjwalker67]

The Rams are my team. I grew up in L..A. when they were there until 1994 & was overjoyed when they came back to L.A. in 2016. Coach Sean McVay has been the best Coach the Rams have ever had as far as I'm concerned. And not only has he taken us to the SuperBowl in 2019 but we won in 2021. I love everything about that.

[@madamcjwalker67]

Correction 2022. I just woke up. Lol

[@taboohstidbits4479]

It was in 2022 but the season was for 2021. You had it right lol

As a lifetime Ram fan this interview was a treat ! Love you guys at the pivot !

[@CameronWilliams-gy8bw]

Coach Mcvay Awesome 👌 from Quality Control Coach In Washington To Head For the Rams 🐏 SuperBowl Winner 🏆 Incredible Journey Hats off To Coach Mcvay !!!!!!!🙌🏾💪🏿👍🏿💙💯 ....

[@scratchaddict4776]

As a Rams fan since the original LA RAMS, McVay is such an asset. To hear him say last year he wasn’t the coach he knew he could be, spoke volumes. Realism is important. I respected this man and was so great full for 2021 but now it’s even more.

[@travb705]

Love how he asks all three of them what they did to motivate themselves. He is genuinely interested in other people and always looking for chances to learn. That is per of what makes him great!

[@kidbuufatkid7287]

I love how they show us the conversations after the interview is over.

[@SeanLawn71]

That has moved up to one of my favorite Pivot interviews of all time. Last 5 minutes was 🔥!

[@MrPoarch]

The humble approach he takes to his craft, and the amount he cares about others makes me absolutely love this dude a thousand times more than I already did. Not even a Rams fan, but damn that's a hell of a coach and one hell of a human.

[@harry0042]

I agree. Not just because I’m a Rams fan. He’s showing ppl how to live with purpose. Great speaking…..

[@MrPoarch]

@@harry0042 Couldn’t agree more!

[@CoachTerrenceDavis]

I’m a NFL fan! Specifically Cardinals and Browns due to where I lived, but this dude is so inspiring. Listening to him vs current Browns coach Kevin Stefanski is night and day! Good luck to 2023 Browns though.

[@davidcampbell4169]

A lot of players would love to play for a coach like this!

[@gerrynunez9227]

Rams have the 2nd most cap $$ next year...

[@jesseestrada409]

Such a smart and empathetic man. Glad he represents Los Angeles

[@kainbascombe1945]

This is why the pivot is so important! I already loved mcvay as a signal caller now I realise how much of dope guy he is! Nothing but respect for Sean he will be in the nfl for a longtime. Big up the pivot guys too great episode.

[@Ramfreak23]

My favorite all time Rams coach. Hope he has a very long tenure.

[@ugotevansd]

These last two episodes with terry, and Sean were absolutely phenomenal

[@gerrynunez9227]

Yeah that one with Terry made me respect scary Terry even more.

[@beastzillakid]

Definitely one of the best episodes yet. Coach McVay is a great speaker and shows his personality while doing it.

[@TheCountofToulouse]

In 1999, ESPN picked the Rams to finish dead last in their division. Las Vegas gave them the HIGHEST odds (3500 -1) to win the title. Out of every sports team to every win a title, the 99 Rams were LEAST expected to win a championship, let alone do it with a backup QB who wasn't even drafted and who had spent his time in the arena league. If ANY team can shock the crap out of some people, it is THIS team. In fact, they're KNOWN for doing things that NO one expects them to do. Few things make me happier than watching the "experts" eat crow as the Rams defy every convention and every ODDS maker.

[@HouseOfMoths]

Watch us make the sb vs kc

[@danstvguy]

I'm a 50 yr Rams fan who thinks they will have a miserable season. I would LOVE to eat some crow. Perhaps served up by Wolfgang Puck.

[@Ositum963]

Anyone who was in STL in 99 remembers the Domino's story. The Rams were a shit team for a few years before that. Domino's had a deal where every touchdown the Rams scored, the price of Pizza reduced by like $0.99. The greatest show on turf was that year and the Rams were scoring 4,5 touchdowns per games. Guys in STL were buying pizza for $2-3. Domino's deliveries were highest when the Rams played. Absolutely insane.

[@tarrooktopping1515]

I love how they got emotional talking about how big this got. This is one of my favorite ones yet! Great conversation

[@TH1NK_BLU3_495]

Absolute brilliant mind!! Great guest, great show!! WHOSEEEE HOUSEEEEEE!!💙💛💙💛

[@gustavosaavedra1711]

McVay has the chance to be the GOAT of Head Coaches, I hope he see’s this and I hope this drives him.

[@clevelandknight1094]

Its funny Mcvay would not stop talking and at one point RC thought he was done turned to walk away, and Sean started talking again and RC looked around like did anybody see me. Lol

[@omarismith2789]

Another great interview. The OG's know how to ask the right questions and let the conversation flow. McVay was amazing as well. I literally look forward to these every Tuesday and Friday.

I hope the rest of the country can see why this man became a ROLE MODEL for me when he took that rams job. I still watch the introductory presser with him and Les and you could tell then and there that if this dude can coach like he can talk and inspire…… we are gonna be fine 🔥 Love this coach so much.

Going from a coach that had no passion and repeated himself in every interview to now having THIS man. I knew something good was coming from the hire but he exceeded all our expectations. So happy to have you as our head coach Mcvay !

[@danstvguy]

I think the deal with Fisher was that he liked being a head coach more than he liked winning. His passion wasn't for winning.
