My theory is that a ton of players who explode onto the scene looking great and then "regress" are not actually regressing: rather, opposing teams start to pay attention and watch tape and figure out how to counter whatever they're doing.

This is 100% true for quarterbacks, it's really hard to make adjustments for a guy you have like 2 quarters of tape on

Cassel had one good year in Kansas City and then Charlie Weis left as offensive coordinator and it all went to poo poo

I loved the shirts people were wearing at State College when PSU was playing Notre Dame in 2006 that said "Charlie Weis is fat." PSU fans really couldn't say more than that as they got blown out that day.

When is the last time a kicker going on IR has made so much noise with a team potentially advancing to the playoffs? Zuerlein, who could have ended up being the leading scorer in the league this year, to Sam Ficken who has never kicked in an NFL game.

I watched Ficken's freshman year at PSU, and oh boy... Now he did regroup and got better in college, but if he couldn't hold an NFL roster spot in three years, what's that say? :ohdear:

The 2006 game was in South Bend. The State College edition was 2007 and Penn State won.

This is an important correction.

That sucks, Legatron rules.

Hopefully this doesn't make McVay turtle up the offense and punt from the 35 because he doesn't trust the new guy.

Also goddamn, how toast is Roberto Aguayo if he can't get a phone call from a playoff team desperately looking for a new kicker on short notice?

Fisher definitely helped put together a drat good roster; the Rams had a lot of high picks, sure, but a lot of them have panned out, apparently including the huge bet-the-farm trade for Goff.

He’s just not a good coach.

Hopefully losing Zuerlein makes McVay a little more aware of his Pass-Pass-Pass playcalls that stall drives. They’ve kept Gurley light on touches and fresh all year, now is the time to let him free.

I’m sure Jeff Fisher had some influence on the Rams roster but it’s Les Snead that built this team and you couldn’t convince me otherwise.

Yeah I agree because we have so many gaps on the roster, but itd definitely be interesting to see how many of those close games we would have snagged.

I agree, that would be good. But also bad because then Atlanta would be in the playoffs.

Y’all have to go back to LA if you make it though. Sure you want to see that again?
