QB ratings playing under Fisher:
Sam Bradford- 85.3
Case Keenum- 79.5
Jared Goff- 63.6

After leaving Fisher:
Sam Bradford- 94.6
Case Keenum- 94.4
Jared Goff- 112.2

Another variable. What happens when you run the same numbers with the same people and compare with and without a running game.

I wonder who should be blamed for Fisher lacking a running game?

Hint: That was a rhetorical question.

Exactly 43, exactly. The proof is in the pudding, as they say.

In 2016? It was a lot of things. One of them being Gurley himself.

A lot went wrong in 2016. Those who try to reduce it to just one or two things always strike me as being way too reductive.

But here's a hint for you. They had a decent running game for 5 years. When it was Keenum and Gurley in 2015, this was Keenum's avg. qb rating in the last 4 games: 90.8.

Here's Keenum's avg. qb rating in 2016, when he never had a running game: 76.4

Here's another one, the qb's first 4 games of 2013 when there was no running game: 75.75. In the next 3 games of 2013, same qb, but at that point they were starting Stacy and pounded out a decent running game: 110.9.

Again, as for the run game in 2016, there are so many causes that it;s a long list. It's not reducible to just one cause. One of the causes was Gurley himself. He doesn't take the full reductive blame for it though because as I said it was more than one thing.

Things are rarely as simple as people want them to be when they want them to be simple.
