Scheme ConfidenceTier 1Full Continuity
McVay returns as head coach and offensive coordinator with his West Coast system firmly established through empirical data. His career fingerprint shows balanced personnel usage and moderate motion rates, matching what the team deployed last season. Shula continues as defensive coordinator with his Modern Odd-Front Zone approach, supported by his own playcalling history that emphasizes sound assignment football with measured blitz rates. Both coordinators have established empirical clusters that directly inform their scheme projections, creating maximum confidence in the system's continuity.

Key Concerns
▸The secondary's athleticism grades at zero out of 100, severely limiting their ability to cover modern NFL receivers.
▸Zone coverage sits at just 43 out of 100, creating a fundamental mismatch with Shula's zone-heavy defensive scheme.
▸Pass protection grades at only 24 out of 100, undermining the timing-based concepts in McVay's West Coast offense.
▸Multiple offensive line starters have expiring contracts, threatening continuity along the front.
▸Receiving ability from running backs grades at just 25 out of 100, limiting options in McVay's pass-heavy system.
