Sean McVay has already established himself as one of the best coaches in Rams history and he’ll have a chance to etch his name in the record books once again on Thursday night when Los Angeles hosts the Minnesota Vikings.
With the Rams’ 20-15 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday, McVay notched his 79th career win (including playoffs) in seven-plus years at the helm. His next win will give him 80 in his career, which would be the most all-time by a Rams head coach.
The current record is held by John Robinson, who won 79 games as the Rams’ head coach. Of Robinson’s 79 wins, 75 came in the regular season. McVay currently has 72 regular-season wins, but his seven playoff victories are the most ever by a Rams coach.

Robinson also set the record in nine seasons with the Rams, whereas McVay is only in his eighth season in Los Angeles. It took Robinson 153 total games to reach 79 wins and McVay is currently sitting at 132 games coached entering Thursday’s contest.
Needless to say, McVay will always be heralded as an all-time great coach in Los Angeles, especially with one Super Bowl ring on his finger already.
