You know how pressers go. Most of them are about head coaches spewing PF fluff and words the media wants to hear. Sean McVay has never been that guy. You need to psycho-analyse every single word he says. Why? Because everything he talks about always has another layer underneath it. And what he just said about Stetson Bennett might just tell you more about Matthew Stafford‘s future than it says about Bennett.
In a league where coach-speak is often vanilla, McVay dropped a line that instantly gave off the unsaid: “We will rally around Stetson Bennett and we will play good football.” It felt less like a pat on the back and more like a signal. A signal aimed towards Matthew Stafford.
Sean Mcvay: we will rally around Stetson Bennet and we will play good football!

But first things first. Let’s talk Bennett. He has made his case this preseason. It’s been a lot more than just ‘nice flashes’. In his first two games, he’s piled up 512 yards with 5 TDs and 2 picks. That’s insane production. And it’s not just serviceable backup work, it’s top-10 in preseason yardage league-wide. Is the comeback story about to get real in LA?
