"He makes us all feel like first-round picks who are capable of anything. Mike has a way of making people feel important. From top to bottom, the way he runs the organization is first-class. It's the little things that go a long way, like giving each player his own hotel room on the road and free Spectravision movies when we're on road trips. He makes it as comfortable for his players as possible, so that when you're out they're playing, you're playing for him."
Mike Shanahan treated his players like humans.....like Fisher did..... and not like McDaniels.
There are many ways to be successful in the NFL. Fisher just made a few stategic errors, but I do not think the country-club atmosphere was the problem. The problem was Fisher's vision or implementation of an offense...
that's what did Fisher in. imo
We had 2/3s of a very good team....but no offense. Fisher needed to hand it over to an experienced/Vet OC and perhaps let his own vision for his offense cloud his judgment. I'll never know and it's moot now anyway.
note:
I DO NOT WANT MCDaniels back.
When you have an undisciplined team, sooner or later its gonna rear its ugly head and bite you.
The country-club atmosphere breeds a lack of mental toughness and accountability.
Offense was just one of many issues with his teams.
Agreed, la.
Fisher's shortcomings extended far beyond his annual pathetic O's.
The culture was the disease.
The O was but one of the symptoms.
