Maybe some games Davis lost, Hill would have won. But maybe some games Davis won, Hill would have lost.Where would we be if the Rams had trusted in this?
Ah well, next season Rams make their SB run!

Davis played so well early that Fisher made the only decision he could. Fortunately for Hill, he's come in when the rest of the team has improved around him.
Man you dug for that interview.. That's been awhile now in internet time. Kudos..
No, the TEAM was 1-3. Davis' statistics were awesome, indicating he wasn't the problem at the time. He got yips later, but there wasn't any definitive time when we saw it wasn't going to work until that meltdown against Arizona. You disagree with this, but you were pounding the table for Hill even when Davis was still good.Davis was 1-3 when Fisher made that decision so, not so sure Fisher made the only decision he could. Hindsight is 20-20 though.
What we know for certain is it didn't get the Rams to the playoffs.
I'm not even as bothered by the decision as not reversing it in time when we saw it wasn't going to work.
Ah well, with the team Snisher built for next season, I'm fully confident he will make the best decisions for a SB run!

Now the rest of the team has picked up. But trust me, Hill wouldn't have been the difference between the results we got in those games and the shutouts we're getting now.
But maybe it's time to stop pounding the table on this topic and just enjoy where we are? Just a suggestion.
There's absolutely nothing for us to have possibly known. Hill is a journeyman career backup. I'm glad he's doing well for us and he has made some nice plays, but he is not the primary reason for our recent success and no one is going to be after him in the offseason to be their starter.What if we knew?
Well, in the very first game Hill was sacked once and Davis was sacked four times against the exact same defense so, while I agree Davis was good at times and has great potential, I would have to disagree that he was awesome in that small comparison.
Yes and no. He is a career backup mostly. But, he has the ability to read Ds and manage a game well. I understand going with Davis and sticking with him. But, Hill has not stuck around in the NFL for his giant arm or ability to run. Everything with different players tend to be a trade off. In terms of putting a team in a position to win week in and week out Hill would be the pretty easy call on that. However, when Davis flashed what he did vs. Seattle I understand giving him plenty of rope. I like Davis and Hill both and hope the Rams retain both.There's absolutely nothing for us to have possibly known. Hill is a journeyman career backup.

I thought he played the whole first half, then Fish started Davis in the second half.Not to nitpick but Hill played very little of that game to make that comparison, at least thats from what I remembered.
Fixed.I think we need a few more of these threads. I just can't get enough. I wonder if Florio thinks.
Fixed.
