I agree.
Austin - and for that matter Gurley, Quick, and Higbee, among others - have all been victims of this coaching staff.
I'm not saying Tavon wasn''t overpaid - he was, IMO. But the way they coach him and use him is the primary problem. They just have NO idea how to best utilize his skills.
Fisher - and his ludicrous hiring of the clearly uninspired and unqualified Rob Boras as OC - are holding back these players. They have SHOWN that they have unique skills and can flourish in this league. But coaching matters.
And Fisher and his entire offensive coaching staff - and I'm including Weinke in that - are where offensive talent goes to die.
I just hope a change is made soon - while these players are still young - so we can see what they can do with decent coaching.
