A Bumpy Bus Ride
As of Oct 8, 2007, the San Francisco 49ers on on pace to produce the worst rated offense since the league changed to a 16 game schedule in 1978.
I care because Frank Gore was my #1 drafted running back in my fantasy football league. New Orleans' MVP QB in 2006, Drew Brees, was my #2.
The rock bottom performance of both is a mystery to all.
At least, the 49ers' head coach, Mike Nolan, is taking an open objective look at things (as I'm sure Brees is). On whether or not blame their problems on the first year offensive coordinator, Jim Hostler, I liked this quote by Mike:
"I do believe that it's not accurate to put one person under the bus, because all you've done there is just postponed the next person under the bus.''
Would be a bumpy bus ride, no doubt. Nice to see integrity like this in the face of adversity.
The joy of fantasy football. Who knew the Saints would have such problems?
