yeah he did when injuries permitted

Who cares what the knuckleheads before him did - the stache had 5 years and couldn't get it done. #OffensiveFailure

The "knuckleheads" before him just simply suffered from the damage of extensive OL injuries. That was nothing they "did." The list of Rams OL injuries from 2006-2009 is long and extensive. And contrary to an opinion I see when this topic comes up sometimes, if you have EXTENSIVE, multiple simultaneous OL injuries the OL will suffer for it. SOMETIMES, though rarely, there's a qb who can make an offense work okay when its OL goes to pieces with multiple injuries...that includes Wilson and Brady. But as I said that's not common.

A coach is not responsible for extensive OL injuries. That's just the odds working against them.

In terms of Fisher OLs, when they were experienced and relatively healthy, from the 2nd half of 2012 through most of 2013, they played just fine.

What killed all that was again injuries.

That's the real story, as much as some try to neglect it. The history of Rams OL injuries is the real story of OL play from 2006 on.

That doesn't account for 2016, where it just was never consistently effective, but it is the story before that time.

Sorry but as I said this is just simply not a "Fisher Wars" kind of topic. The facts just don't line up that way...so to speak. cool smiley
