For the "Let's blow it up" guys...
Yep, I'm just not ready to say that right now or shall I say I'm not ready 'yet'....
Nor am I ready to say 'Screw Jeff, Sam or Les.
Lets face it, because of the RGIII trade, if you back one you back them all however if one must go, it will be Sam. He is the most expendable plus makes the most business sense to the cap and a rebuilding process of the three. Now we need to remember when we say 'Let's blow it up' that their is a cost involved. At what point do we even start asking ourselves do we "Fish or Cut Bait?" If only someone would have unlocked the secrets of that magical sliding ruler the Ancients invented years ago that told us 'when good money follows bad". Problem is, there is no such device.
Let's start from the beginning, now who can argue that Fisher wasn't a great fit at the time of hire for the Rams? Who was our second choice? Jeff Fisher has done it at the Professional level and done it well for a long time. Probably for a long time no Head Coach will ever come as close to winning a SB as Jeff did. If he was a good hire than, what has changed losing the last three out of four games? Not enough to shake me, so I say FISH
With Les, when do we start to evaluate a draft class? And what phase of the evaluation are we in for Les' 1st draft class? 20 games in? We certainly came out okay last year and for that reason alone, we all had high hopes regarding the job or better yet endeavor Les and Jeff were attempting to do. Since we drafted Sam we have turned the entire roster execpt for 6 players. That's out of 53! Our team is so freaking young and has ZERO time playing together and I think most regard this as a non factor in regards to our play. From that same time, we only have 4 starters out of 22. That's crazy! Of course we have no coaches, or schemes and no continuity for more than two years running to compliment those 6 players or 4 starters. This guy needs more time, without a doubt. Has he been perfect, hell no but he has been bold and not afraid to make his mark and live by em. GOTTA FISH
Now Sam was great in college. As a Pro, he has not earned anything outside of some credit on some good wins, some good 4th quarters wins, some bad losses and more than his share of bad quarters, period. Most can admit, at the time of the 2010 draft, if he didn't EARN the No. 1 seed overall, he certainly earned the No. 1 QB pick and probably the No. 2 Pick overall. And because we didn't have a QB, (Remember Bulger asked to be released after he was put on the IR in 2009) So Sam was a no brainer when we had the first pick overall that year. Let this team grow around Sam and FISH!
Now I backed the RGIII trade and we still have a first round pick to add on yet, so were not even close to being done (Maybe that's a true RB, OL guy in the first round or maybe a key Secondary guy but with a little more experience with all these young fellas and a right move here or there in FA next year we could be set up for the long haul. So with the help of this trade, we have completely overhauled our teams roster. We are in the middle of our current rebuild now so now is not the time to blow it up, now is the time to circle the wagons or better yet... Now is the time to FISH!
