Quote:You know, the more I think about it the more I think you may be right. I was one of the few that actually liked Fisch's offense because I loved all of the stuff that he had in it. I loved all of the multiple formations motions and all of that. I used to think that he was doing everything that he could in order to try and wring out whatever yardage he could out of an undertalented/underexperienced roster.

 

But as I think more on it, I feel like you have a better grasp of what was going on. It's not that Fisch was just trying to get yards, it's that he didn't know the best way to put the right guys in the right situations.

 

Wow. Could Scarecrow actually be right about something?!?!

I'm with you. I liked all the funky stuff Fisch would do (when it worked), but from what we've read, he was so concerned with confusing the defense with his looks, that he ended up over complicating the offense thus caused as much confusion on that side of the ball as well. If Gus is all about playing fast, this wasn't really working to make that happen.
