I think there is a struggle going on between Lynn and Whizenhunt. Lynn has his view and philosophy of how things should go. He is de-emphasizing Rivers and the need to depend on him so much. Whiz is trying to respect what Lynn wants but still call the game. I think this is why the offense is so hurky-jurky and never gets into a rhythm. Why guys like Hunter Henry disappear. I would not be surprised if Whiz is gone after this season, replaced by someone who runs a system closer to what Lynn wants to do.
This is what Turner did with LT. He transitioned the offense away from LT and towards Rivers. It ticked LT off and made a lot of people question what was going on. But LT was in decline and Rivers was the future.
The only thing wrong with Lynn's approach this time is...who is the future? This team is Rivers and .....Rivers. There is no future. No super star RB to carry the load. No hot shot QB being groomed. If the offensive identity is not Rivers, it is really nothing as a result. And that is what we are seeing.
