Re: Travis Fisher vs. Seattle
You make some good points here. I think Fisher is taking more flak than he deserves, but I also do think that there are some major shortcomings in his game. Primarily, even when he's one-on-one in man coverage, he has got to do a better job of getting his hands on the ball. It's not just the turnovers; there are a number of corners who have batted down more balls this year than Fisher has in the last 3. I don't really think he's particularly playing any worse than he has in previous years, but I think we always hoped he was going to get better. And I guess I just don't see much improvement over years past. You're right, it's not that bad--at least it could be a whole lot worse--but I'm not sure I'd call it solid. I'd rate him as a pretty average no. 2 CB, but rather below average if compared to the best CBs on each team. Regardless, I think he probably is our best bet for the time being. I expect a certain number of rookie mistakes from Hill, and I've not really seen enough of Butler recently to say whether I'd want him in.
