Right back at ya, RFIP.
Know what I think?
I think that Goff's career trajectory will be more clear after a year in the McVay regime. It's not quite clear at this point, but by next year we should have a pretty good inkling. Might go in any direction, although I am personally cautiously optimistic. It's just my default position. Lol.
TBH, I'm reluctant to be very critical of ANY of our younger O players after playing in Fisher's debacle of an O.
This is all opinion. That's yours. Here's mine.
This idea that poor performance last year was simply because of "Fisher's O" is a crutch.
It's not a real analysis. It's reductive. It cuts corners. It oversimplifies.
A lot of different things happened last year. It's false optimism to say well it was just the coach and since they replaced the coach, main problem solved.
A lot of different things happened, a lot of different things have to happen to see improvement.
And so far I am good with McVay. I like what he's doing.
Well, zn, you are consistent in your defense of the Fisher coaching regime.
I've gotta give you that. Lol.
Well that sword cuts 2 ways. We're each consistent.
BUT I did not offer a "defense of the Fisher coaching regime" in that post.
I offered a defense of reasonable analysis.
And, hanging all of 2016 on coaching is not, to me, reasonable analysis. 2016 was far more than one thing.
A lot happened in 2016. It did not reduce to one thing. It is not simply a case of "McVay in, all's good." A lot happened in 2016, as I said, and some of it was one time stuff, unique just to 2016.
...
False premise, zn.
I've never said that ALL shortcomings on O were on Fisher.
But when his teams had back to back "worst O in NFL" standings, well.....
That seems like a lot to justify by "stuff happens", don't you think. At SOME point one has to look at the person in charge.
No need to reply. We each know how the other feels on this topic. Lol.
I don't put 2015 on the coaches. Foles melted down, and then they had a #2 caliber qb playing the best he could behind a radically inexperienced line.
Show me a coach who got more out of that formula--#2 caliber qb, extremely inexperienced OL.
In fact wish that on McVay. Have it boil down to this---he has to start a #2 caliber qb all season behind an OL that is very young and gets injured on top of it.
According to you a better coach does better with that, right? So are you eager for it to happen?
So...see? Once again. Two different opinions based on looking at different things.
You can continue this fight all you want, and keep adding "but my opinion is not an opinion it's Truth" moves, but at the end of the day, it's just you being consistent with your opinion.
Or, we agree that we see it differently and move on to other topics.
