Sean McVay effect

The Sean McVay effect (or the Next Sean McVay) is a term used to describe a National Football League (NFL) trend regarding teams hiring young head coaches that specialized in offensive strategy, but would later be expanded to describe the NFL trend of hiring young head coaches in general. The trend originated in 2017 when 30-year-old Sean McVay was hired as head coach of the Los Angeles Rams, subsequently making him the youngest-ever NFL head coach in the Super Bowl era (1966–present). During his first year in charge, McVay rapidly changed the culture of the organization and turned the Rams into the league's highest-scoring offense, resulting in the team becoming perennial title contenders and eventual champions in Super Bowl LVI. In light of McVay's quick success, NFL teams increasingly began to hire relatively younger coaches.
