Sean McVay is a solid offensive coordinator. Joe Barry can probably be a decent defensive coordinator with more talent on the defensive side of the ball. It comes down to which you want more - a savvy defensive coordinator who can take subpar talent and turn that unit into one that overachieves, or a middle of the road defensive coordinator who has outstanding talent that makes him look like a genius?

Many will go for the former, but I will tell you this, at some point, I don't care how good the DC is, the defense gets exposed. At least with the latter, you know that you have a solid, talented group on defense, and if they are failing, then it's because of the DC and his scheme. In yesterday's game, Barry called the correct defensive call, but the players didn't execute. And when the players did execute, the offensive players made great plays showed they were better.

So, as much as I'd like a genius DC who's coaching outstanding talent on the defensive side of the ball, I'm not sure if we're going to get that. I think SM will focus more on bringing in better players on the defensive side of the ball, and give Joe Barry all the help he needs to succeed. Simply put, defenses win championships, but offenses get you to those championships. So, I think we're about 90% there on offense, but the defense has to catch up. You give our coordinators one more year with better talent and see what happens from there.
