To answer your question, McVay developed his players, most importantly his second year QB, and had a better scheme offensively than Fisher, which put his players in better position to succeed. He also had one of the best defenses in the league with a great DL. Pederson was able to win with his backup because he had one of the best backup QBs in the NFL, a scheme that relied on getting the ball into the hands of his playmakers quickly, and, most importantly, one of the best defenses in the league, including arguably the best DL in the league.
Those things are not coaches having an impact on the outcome of the game. Why? Because a scheme doesn't guarantee success. The player still has to go out and execute the scheme. That is why all outcomes are player driven. You can disagree with that all you'd like, but every part of the system in the league reflects the truth of it, including pay.
