After the Rams’ 20-3 loss to the Packers, legendary actor Samuel L. Jackson questioned Sean McVay’s future
After the Packers trounced Sean McVay’s Rams 20-3 on Sunday, actor Samuel L. Jackson chimed in. The Los Angeles Rams are 3-6 after nine games, and they fell to a squad that improved if that can be termed improvement, to a 3-5 record.
It was a lacklustre performance. The Green Bay Packers have been the least dominant club this season, with Jordan Love still finding his way as the starting quarterback and the offense relying on young, inexperienced players. Even with Matthew Stafford out with an injured thumb, scoring only three points against them was hardly ideal.
Samuel L. Jackson immediately blamed the bad performance on the head coach and stated that discussing the job Sean McVay was doing should not be prohibited. The iconic actor took to X, formerly known as Twitter, and wrote:
“At what point do we start the Rams coaching conversation??!!”

Samuel L. Jackson is accurate in pointing out the Rams’ decline under Sean McVay, with the Packers’ loss simply the most recent example.
To address Samuel L. Jackson’s question regarding when we can start talking about Sean McVay’s future with the Los Angeles Rams, the answer is right now. The defeat to the Green Bay Packers may have been a spark, but their performances have been dismal for some time.
There have been mitigating circumstances. Odell Beckham Jr. and Von Miller both departed the team following the Super Bowl. Last season, Matthew Stafford, Aaron Donald, and Cooper Kupp all had injuries at various points.
However, it needs to explain how a team that won Super Bowl LVI went 5-12 the next year and became the worst-ever defending champ. The previous record was held by the Denver Broncos, who had recently lost franchise quarterback John Elway to retirement, and there was no such turmoil in Los Angeles.

Sean McVay has guided the Rams to an 8-18 record since winning the Lombardi Trophy, up until today’s loss to the Packers. It has one of the worst records in the league. We call it relegation form if there were a system of relegation and promotion, as there is in many soccer leagues throughout the world.
As a result, Samuel L. Jackson’s call should be answered and the matter discussed. The exploits of the head coach in winning the Super Bowl will never be forgotten. But they went all out that year, and he hasn’t been able to urge his men to regain even average form, much alone championship form, since.
