In today's sports you can have all the talent, but can still be hindered by situations. Look at Tom Brady, he got a start after Bledsoe got hurt, otherwise he was the back up. Now he is considered the greatest quarterback of all time. Then there is Jeff fisher..... Here are some of his stats
Coached 22 years in NFl
Best season 13-3 he had 3 of them all with Tennessee
Over all winning percentage. .512 173 wins and 165 losses
I want to focus on his last years, or really the years I watched him. You start out with him getting Vince Young, and we all know how that turned out... A lot of people said it was young but not Fisher.... Lets see what you think after this, we will start with his next 4 quarterbacks. All of which made appearances as starters or a back up in this years playoffs, 3 of which are still in the Superbowl contention.
Sam Bradford, got hurt and had another surgery, but was a starter this year for the vikings, and now a backup.
Nick Foles, now the starter for the Eagles, and it is only after a bummer injury to possibly a top 3 quarterback in the league, but he played well, and showed he can be a starter and win playoff games.
Case Keenum, probably the biggest in your face to Jeff Fisher. This guy can straight ball this year. 11-3 as a starter 3547 yards 22 tds and o ya a average of 98.3 qb rating. He is also a man who has his priorities straight God, family, then football.
Then you have the luckiest one Goff, best thing that could of happend. Fisher getting fired, his crap 4-9 record team last year was a division winner with 11-4 and Had 3804 yards with 28 tds, and his offense lead the league in points. Huge turn around with the only difference being Fisher fired.
So I ask you did Vince Young really stink or is Fisher to blame. Stats don't lie and everyone he canned is no flying....
