that i thought was interesting was the following....

Brown brought up a disconnect between the running back and the offensive line.

"A lot of times you could see where it just seemed like we were on different pages," Brown said. "I don’t know if that’s being coached differently. How it’s being conveyed in each room, we don’t know. The big thing is we have to get back on the same page, because when we’re on the same page, we’re pretty damn good."

to me, combined with gurleys HS offense comment, is an indictment of the coaching staff. first on boras for just basically being in over his head and then ultimately on fisher for never really evolving with his offensive philosophy which i think hindered his ability to bring in quality offensive staff.

Actually, Gurley called it a "middle school" O, PHD. He didn't think it rose to the level of a high school O, apparently. Lol.

I think zn is right. It wasn't just any one thing, unfortunately.

Rather than trying to itemize, I guess we could say it was a matter of "culture" from coaches to players. Just about everybody. So many simultaneous things that were "off" that they all kinda subconsciously gave up.

The good news is that McVay seems well into changing all that. We'll see.

  Defenses crowding the LOS

  IMO? it wasn't just one thing and making it just one might be too reductive
