Rams assistants Zac Taylor and Shane Waldron interviewed with teams this month and McVay credited the entire organization for boosting their profiles.“It’s really the Rams’ success that we’ve had,” McVay said, via Joe Curley of the . “This is a reflection of the culture that’s created by the people that are here … It’s flattering for the organization.”Continued winning will lead to continued opportunities for Rams assistants and the team will look for the first playoff win of the McVay era on Saturday night.
