Quote:Fisch is not the problem.  I stand by that.  He's not my favorite OC by any stretch, but he's OK.  The O-line was the issue until this week, and what do you know?  The first and only game we can run behind that line  ---  we win.  

 

It's youth.  Youth at QB.  Youth at WR.  Youth along the line.  It will keep getting better with spurts of total suck. (Like Bortles today) 

 

Fisch is fine. He won't play it safe so much when theres more experience out there. 

 

I totally agree with that.  It's the easiest thing in the world to sit in an armchair and say, "Why didn't we call a different play" when the reality is, we're starting five or six rookies on offense.   I repeat, we are starting 5 or 6 rookies on offense.   That is unheard of. 

 

And I would like to add: here's what Fisch did this week that was a really good idea.   Cleveland was playing with a lot of backup players on the defensive line.   So the Jaguars lined up almost exclusively with 1 RB, 1 TE, and 3 WRs.   This forced Cleveland to line up in the nickle defense almost the entire game.  That led to a lot of running lanes for Denard.   That's why Fisch is an offensive coordinator and the armchair generals of this message board are not.
