Compared to other coaches, sure. Currently the highest paid NFL coach is Belichek at $12 mil/yr. However, Tony Romo signed a 10-year contract worth about $17 mil/yr. And for sure, Romo's job is less stressful and more secure than any NFL HC job.

So if a network offers McVay a similar contract, what should the Rams do? If I'm Kroenke, I pay McVay a matching contract, but maybe Stan won't - which would be a sad day for the Rams. From Kroenke's perspective, I hope he looks at the increase in Rams franchise value, if they win another SB in the next few years. That will be way more than however much he has to pay McVay.

This is the part where I hope Ego's dont get too involved....

Well it looks like both AD and McVay will return for next year,

Both of them committed for another run for a second SB.....

I can't see Stan's ego getting in the way of signing McVay for more bucks. He's a smart guy, he's seen the RAMS be absolute garbage for decades and now a shot at being the next Patriots type dynasty going forward.

The only way this falls apart is if Stan sees McVay's disciples doing really well, and he decides he can just sign one of those disciples instead of McVay.

Has Kroenke done one thing on the cheap since taking over majority ownership of the Rams?

He got into and won a bidding war for Fisher and i believe we also had the biggest most expensive assistant coaching staff too. The stadium wasn't exactly inexpensive.

I guess maybe you could argue now that he has a Lombardi, Kroenke will turn his attention and resources elsewhere but i kind of doubt it. The Rams still have a lot they can accomplish when it comes to expanding the brand.

If McVay retires, it will be because he wants to do something else.

I believed, before today, that both McVay and Donald would be back. But for people to be convinced that they are returning based on what they said during today's celebration - I think is a mistake.

These guys were rightfully caught up in the moment and probably acting on impulse. Plus it seemed like AD was likely drunk.

But I still believe they will both be back. I just think it's too soon for McVay to step away and it seems unlikely Donald will leave that much money on the table.

I never thought they would retire. Even though they won a championship there is still more they can do to cement their legacy. A one and done has been accomplished by multiple teams. A dynasty doesn't come around very often. They aren't one yet but the opportunity is there for it. Belichick is considered the most successful coach of this era.

If McVay wants it, he has a chance to be the most successful coach of his era. Donald's career will eventually be over. He's already considered the best defensive tackle ever by quite a few people. Being part of a dynasty with multiple championships would cement that with the ones who aren't convinced yet.

Football is in their blood. It ain't easy to just walk away when they still have plenty left to accomplish.
