"I’m going to do what’s best for this team. We’re going to try to win ballgames. If that means getting LenDale (White) more touches, which in I think we probably should have done last night in retrospect, that’s what it means. All those personal things are all well and good, but at this point we need to win the next game."(on why Rod Hood hasn’t been active)
"Just numbers. As I’ve said the last few weeks, it’s been hard to get to 45."(on Nick Harper’s performance)
"Nick just had one man-to-man thing that he stumbled on, but other than that I thought he played solid, solid run support. If anybody knows that offense, Nick does. I thought he played a good ball game."

Its a reference to the 46 defense we started running in 93’ when Buddy Ryan became defensive coordinator of the (then Oilers). Fisher became DC in 94’ and was basically running the same system but over the years we seem to have gotten away from it and seem to be running more zone cover 2 these days and less man to man. Hope that helps “46”
Heh.
“….Nick just had one man-to-man thing that he stumbled on,…”
Heh. Then your expectations of him must be really, really low if he only let you down once.

active roster for the game
somehow our leader in takeaways doesnt make the cut (i assumed this, but i dont hink anyone has more)
Nick Harper......
If Nick Harper is so valuable in run support then put him at fucking linebacker and start Rod Hood…..damn…….frustrating
Nick Harper let you down ALL day on Garcon.
God you are blind Fisher.
Ain't no time for hesitatin'
All you got to do is groove
Numbers...
That argument, statement, whatever, is such a pile of coachspeak dog crap. They kept both Mouton and McCourty up right? How the hell does he not move ahead of these guys? He’s got the production, experience, chemistry, everything on them, except maybe b/c the rookies are “their guys,” thus lending even more to Fish’s delerious values of loyalty. Man this is infuriating!
What Fisher would tell you
is that it is because Mouton and McCourty play special teams. My guess is that they won’t give Hood a shot to do that because those guys have done it all year, and how can you really blame him with how good our special teams has been this season….

Your sarcasm is dripping all over the place. :)
I must say I’m a Fisher supporter, but in this I agree that he needs to see reason and at least keep Hood active so that when Harper blows it he can be switched out for at least a few plays…
Fisher
His new own Monday morning Quarterback… He’s and idiot
How can he not admit Harper Blows? Oh yeah, again he’s an idiot
If only Fisher could see.
The reason the press keeps on asking questions about the performance of Nick Harper is because everyone else but Fisher and the coaching staff can see that Harper sucks. Period. You don’t see the press asking why Keith Bulluck played like he did…BECAUSE HE CAN ACTUALLY PLAY!

RE: If only Fisher could see
King Titan you’re right on the money and stole my thunder. Nick Harper has been burnt multiple times and is a complete liability in coverage! I guess Bud might have to order him to sit Harper and play Hood since he’s too goddamed stubborn to admit he’s playing bad. I have been a Fisher supporter over the last 15 yrs but Fisher has really let this team down with many bad decisions this season. Starting with the VY vs. Collins thing,the return game situation and ending with this harper controversy. I think he’s not gonna be coaching this team after this year. “46”
i'm sick of fisher..
he is an okay coach. I know there are worse coaches out there but there are also much better ones.
He can post a good number with a good roster (which i think all coaches in NFL can do.) He doesn’t really make out team better.
Well spake, sir.
Fisher has done a great job this year of driving a Cadillac into a ditch.
This one's for you, #9.
""I’m going to do what’s best for this team. We’re going to try to win ballgames. "
Best follow-up question ever: “Why isn’t Hood active?”
and the shoe fits on the other foot
Who knows better than Peyton Manning how bad Nick Harper sucks?
Obviously no one...
…because Manning threw at Harper literally all day long. They talked about Finnegan keeping R. Wayne in check, but that’s garbage. It was just that Manning is a smart guy, and he’s going to throw to the man that’s the most open every time, and EVERY TIME that man was whoever was being guarded by Harper.
