They've had years to teach Sellers and he's still awful. I'm dubious about the ability of this satff to "coach em up" because there has been such little improvement with the players they've had for multiple seasons. Nobody ever seems to get better at anything. This season, in fact, it's been nothing but regression across the board on offense.

Sellers went to the pro bowl soley on his ability to block....not sure what you are talking about?

Not sure why all the hate on Fred Davis?
Fred Davis has not been productive because we play mostly a one TE formation and Cooley is in front of him in the depth charts. Add to it he plays on one of the worst offensive teams in NFL history. How exactly is that his fault?
Yes he was singled out for having a couple of bad blocking days. But we have had other players have bad days lately as well. Lets give the kid a chance to show what he has.
This is not like the WR's Thomas and Kelly situation who have been given starts over other more deserving players (Marko). Davis is finally getting his chance to start. Let see what he does.

I think that he meant pass blocking for Sellers.

Sellers definitely won't be making the Pro Bowl this year on run blocking though.
