too many on this board were ready to throw him overboard...comments like lack of vision...slow to hit the hole.
Amazing what 1 season and 1 game with a real offensive coordinator does for a player.
Fisher & Co would have made Marshall Faulk a draft bust.
McGinnis said he was playing hurt. He had lost weight. He was not the same guy he was in 2015 or 2017. Stats show it and the eyeball showed it.
Good, reputable national guys who study film openly wondered what was wrong with him.
In several different years, Steven Jackson played with really bad conditions (massively injured OLs) and often with no qb and often with an offensive coordinator who was not praised...and he still gained yards. All but the year he played hurt most of the season (groin, 2010).
So I go with what I was saying at the time. Gurley was not himself in 2016.
