you can say all you want about how many things wen't wrong. and i'll agree with you on all of them. but when i saw 10 men on the LOS with 1 man 15 yds back and we could not send a WR, TE or a back out on each side, AND RUN STRAIGHT INTO ALL THOSE GUYS....fisher had to go
It doesn't get down to one play. That's usually the sign of a purely emotional response.
And no one argued for keeping Fisher.
It's not a matter of saying all I want either about "what went wrong."
No team wins under the conditions I named. No one can cite examples of teams that did well while coping with the particular double whammy I named. McVay's won't either if that happens to him. It stands to reason that the Rams would have done better if they did not have to cope with that particular double whammy.
And that's not trying to talk you into anything---you can grant everything I am saying and still say "I don't care I didn't like Fisher anyway."
But what I say is hard cold fact, and usually in conversations like this, it does not get accounted for. And the only way to account for it in a valid way is to admit that no team wins under those conditions. Not unless you can name some.
