GLENDALE — As leadership interviews continue across the NFL, the Arizona Cardinals may be closing in on their next head coach. According to NFL insider Ian Rapoport, the Cardinals are “likely to bring in” Los Angeles Rams offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur for a second interview following Championship Sunday.

Mike LaFleur may already be an offensive coordinator with the Los Angeles Rams, but could he be heading elsewhere in the same role.

But on the Rams’ run to a championship, a flaw to their new approach had become exposed. During the playoffs, McVay’s offense posted just a 23.3 percent rushing success rate while averaging just 2.7 yards per carry. The Rams’ running game, once their calling card in McVay’s early years, had become an aspect of the offense that had to be overcome.

The Athletic’s Nate Atkins and Michael-Shawn Dugar both point to the same player: wide receiver Rashid Shaheed, but mostly for his special teams play. “Explosive plays typically lead to points, and when Rashid Shaheed delivers those explosive plays, Seattle tends to win,” Dugar wrote.
