I also think it's worth noting that the situation is not only different from Atlanta, but also the Rams. I can't stand how many fans keep crying that we should have hired McVay instead of Shanahan all because of W-L results from one season with completely different rosters, one that was clearly superior and actually had some foundation coming in.
Shanahan's situation is NOTHING similar to McVay's. They were both hired as HC's this past offseason. That is where the similarities end.
