" we just kept going with our game plan. Sure enough, they still never threw the ball down field"
Nickell Roby-Coleman
Every fan, every forum, every analyst has been bemoaning Rams, or Keenums lack of down field threat. Every sane person knows this is a big reason why Todd Gurley is getting eaten alive...big reason not entire reason.
Now the opposing teams are publicly stating they don't even gameplay for any down field atuud, and we fail to take advantage of that.
Fisher has got to go. He is like a stubborn child, refusing to admit his way is no longer valid. All the offensive coordinators he has had, with all the football experience they had, I can't believe not one of them did not see this teams lack of a passing game as an issue. Not one of them said " hmmm spread the field, run the ball easier" or " hmm seems like everyone plays 8 up on us" no, it begins and ends with Fisher. He will never adapt, never evolve. For God sake, he even signed a qb to start who physically is unable to be effective down field, and passed up the more physically gifted prospect, the one who's run a offense that was run dominate and took snaps under center, and made reads, and opted for a guy with lesser physical tools, tools irrelevant to Fisher because he refuses to look past 10 yd outs.
Keenum ,in very SAFE FG range, on 3rd and 15 throws a pass 3 yds past the L.O.S. , and does so almost at the beginning g of his progressions. Did not increase our FG position relevantly at all, it was 1st HALF!! Not last 5 seconds. He did not want to throw deeper because he lacks the confidence, no ability to do this consistently. He has to put ALL he has into a throw to go anywhere near " deep" , which to is is basically 30 yd pass, and when he does reach down , and tear his soul muscling that huge 35 yd BOMB, he has no control, as he had to give up any chance of that to get the range.
Goff came across as a goofy, not confident, work. Did not show me any type of leadership qualities at HardKnocks. Just like before the draft with Marriuci at the chalkboard, I felt Wentz made Goff look like the kid in the team everyone took care of because they felt sorry for him. Personally, id live to see Mansion. Personally I think we are screwed no matter what, until Standard nuts up and cans Fisher
