Very nice article Nick. It's easy to fault Fisher by looking at the opposing team's receiver's numbers and placing the blame on the cornerback, but that is just plain ignorance to the strategy of football and how at times it isn't as simple as just covering a man straight up. I would say that all the criticism that Fisher has recieved this year belongs to the defensive line, which you and many others have pointed out here on the forums. Haslett is forced to call for a blitz way more than a team ought to because the pressure is not getting there from the line. And as the old saying goes, you live by the blitz, you die by the blitz, and so far this season that holds very true for the Rams.
