Chiefs Eric Fisher - Page 4

MrGiggity · 10-13-2013, 04:52 PM

How did he look today? I watched him get burned on our first offensive play but didn't really seem to notice him the rest of the game. Granted I wasn't focused on him. For those that really focused on his play is he showing any signs of improvement?

We're just saying that RIGHT NOW, if you want a good reason why our offense is struggling so bad, look no further than Eric Fisher. He is personally responsible for stalling multiple drives per game.

I don't ever remember seeing starting RT play this ****ing bad in Kansas City. Fisher is making me look at the Barry Richardson years fondly.

He also did more to take McGrath out of the offensive game plan (such as it was) than the defense...he required constant help...

but hey, you got one of your long rants about how awesome Alex Smith is in you?

those are fun

Yeah this -- IMO I thought the worst case was competency...he -- a single player -- is actually killing our offense.

It would help if we ran/screened to the point of attack too...

As poorly as the Texans played today, we have the potential to lose to them solely because of Eric Fisher. We may not score a single offensive TD the entire game next week.

In my opinion, it would be irresponsible to not bench Fisher against the Texans. We're not only leaving our Achilles' heel unshielded, but we're defiantly daring people to take a shot at it.

Fisher was always going to be a project.

Unfortunately, with the way Albert is on the deck writhing in pain 3 times every week, Fisher needs to get up to speed by the end of the year.

CupidStunt · 10-13-2013, 06:21 PM

He's the worst starter on this football team. Of course, the reality is he shouldn't BE a starter. He's clearly not a RT and Stephenson has been better than him in relief. I understand the pressure of a #1 pick, but since he's not getting paid $10m/year like other top picks, I'd redshirt him the rest of the way, make him practice at LT and get a hell of a lot stronger.

DTLB58 · 10-13-2013, 06:22 PM

I'd like to see him at LT before we call him a bust. He was the first fricking pick.

I think after his struggles at RT there's no way the chiefs resign Albert and make Fisher play on the right side again next season.

**notorious** · 10-13-2013, 06:45 PM

He sucks.

He can only improve.

O.city · 10-13-2013, 06:49 PM

Just think, we could have had Sheldon Richardson and have given duntas money to aqib talib.

FringeNC · 10-13-2013, 06:51 PM

Fisher sucks, but it is hardly just him. Other games are just different from our games. Our O-line gets dominated by 3 or 4 man pass rushes, and our D dominates opposing O-lines. I watched quite a bit of the NE-NO game after our game was over, and was stunned (after watching our game) by the amount of time Brees typically had. Pryor and Smith never once had as much time as Brees did consistently. Everyone knows Oakland's O-line is a joke, but is ours any better? Think what our D would do to our OL in a real game.

Next to Oakland, is there an OL that is as bad as ours?

Our ol isn't near as bad as it looks. Our ol looks like it does because of our qb.

Teams are doing to us what we do to them. Man press our wrs, with a single high safety and threaten our qb and wr to beat them, will having 7 int he box

How is it Smith's fault if our OL is getting blown up by 3-man pass rushes? That leaves 8 guys to clog things up.

Teams aren't just rushing 3 guys though. A time or two, yes. Normally we are getting 5
