Players tend to play at a lower level than they should and it has been going on for 15 years.
This team with Gurley, Austin, and now a #1 QB and a young offensive line with a #2 pick at Left Tackle is running out of excuses. Gurley is a top 10 player in the NFL. I am biased, but I think he is a top 5 player.
But the problem lies with a passing game that is the worst in the NFL. How in the world are so many players underachieving Britt, Quick, last year both tight ends Kendricks and Cook. How is it that a talented offensive lineman like Robinson, top tier offensive talent, has bottom tier starter results.
Players are just not playing up to their talent level and lots of it falls on coaching.
I have never seen a coach be so weak in one area as Fisher has been for the last 15 years on offense. I thought Martz was horrific with special teams, but Fisher is so bad on offense, that it makes Martz's work on special teams seem like no big deal.
That is the thing on Fisher. Tons of teams over almost 2 decades and most the time, the offense is bad. A sprinkle of above average years missed in with tons of bad years and he gets to pick the players and coordinators and the scheme and the approach and everything.
