The Athletic has announced a new podcast series that gets inside the dynamics of the NFL’s youngest coaching family: the Kyle Shanahan/Sean McVay tree.
Hosted by The Athletic’s NFL reporter Jourdan Rodrigue, The Playcallers takes listeners inside the real story of how the league's most popular offensive system evolved through NFL 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.”
Over a third of current NFL teams run variations of this offense, and that number grows as assistant coaches from McVay, Shanahan, McDaniel and LaFleur’s staffs are poached and promoted each offseason. The offense has been on display in four of the last seven Super Bowls and McVay became the first to win a championship with it in 2021 — and the youngest-ever head coach to win a Super Bowl.
The series contains hours of exclusive interviews with over a dozen head and assistant coaches, former players and analysts across the league. Listeners of this documentary-style series will get an unprecedented look inside these coaches’ minds, and hear them speak openly and candidly about all things' football … and each other. Listeners will also come away with an understanding of how football evolves and changes, and how ideas — and people — clash to mold the sport.
The five-episode series will be released in its entirety on Monday, July 10, on The Athletic Football Show podcast feed.
