Description

Sean McVay becomes the first coach from this coaching family to win the Super Bowl, but it costs him more personally than he could have realized. Before McVay gets to the championship, he has to exorcise his "Kyle Shanahan demons" in the NFC Championship game. Shanahan and Mike McDaniel built their offense into a versatile, punishing group as McVay's own system centers around the flourish of the passing game. McDaniel, who becomes the Dolphins head coach in 2022, starts stretching his legs after so much time working under Shanahan. Meanwhile, Matt LaFleur's own Packers offense is built around compromise and a Hall of Fame quarterback. In speaking with host Jourdan Rodrigue, each head coach opens up about how play-calling has shaped their identity.
Voices in the episode include McVay, Shanahan, LaFleur, McDaniel, Kevin O'Connell, Zac Taylor, Kevin Demoff, Les Snead, Raheem Morris, Andrew Whitworth, Mina Kimes and Steve Wyche.

The Playcallers is a five episode series that gets inside the dynamics of the N.F.L.’s youngest coaching family: the Kyle Shanahan/Sean McVay tree. Hosted by The Athletic’s Jourdan Rodrigue, The Playcallers takes listeners inside the real story of how the N.F.L.’s most popular offensive system evolved through N.F.L. head coaches Shanahan, McVay, Matt LaFleur and Mike McDaniel, and its personal and professional impact on these coaches and many more in their breakneck pursuit of play-calling “perfection.”
