Britt and Austin had their moments. Both had lengthy NFL careers with fair production. We are obviously much better off now, but those guys were hardly scrubs. Quick was a journeyman JAG.
I don't think the blame is all on the players from the Fisher era. With better offensive coaching and systems, the Rams likely get a couple more wins per year at least. Heck, maybe the same can be said if Bradford's knees can just stay healthy and the Rams don't have to play multiple full seasons with a backup QB. Then instead of 7 wins we get 9+ consistently. How long does Fisher keep his job in that scenario? Can the Rams go on an underdog playoff run? They always seemed to play to the level of their competition under Fisher. Do we still end up in a draft slot to select Aaron Donald? It's probably for the best things worked out as they did. But those Fisher years sure were maddeningly frustrating. The team never could take that next step but always kept you thinking they were right on the cusp. Football purgatory.
