The Rams went from 4-12 to 11-5 when they switched from Fisher to McVay, and that was before 3 of those players were added.

In Jeff Fisher's last year (2016) they went 4-12 and only scored 224 points while giving up 394.
In Sean McVay's first year their record jumped to 11-5 with 478 point scored compared to 329 given up.
That's a huge jump from 2016-2017. That's coaching.
The Rams 2017 Offensive line had new starters at four of five positions iand the top 3 WRs (Watkins, Woods, Cupp) were all new to the team.
McVay is a better coach than Fisher, but he also needed a lot of new better talent to win. It was not "Fisher's roster".
