St. Louis Rams Hire Jeff Fisher



Well the courtship of Jeff Fisher between the Miami Dolphins and St. Louis Rams finally came to an end on Friday as it was announced that Jeff Fisher will be the next head coach of the St. Louis Rams. Stan Kronke got his man and in Fisher the Rams fans get what they have wanted for over a decade, an experienced head coach to take over their struggling franchise.

Just those two small words (Jeff Fisher) make you feel the Rams are tenacious. Jeff Fisher was a small scrappy 5'-10" 185 lb cornerback from USC and a 7th round pick of the Chicago Bears back in 1981. Fisher managed to made the team and play for the Bears for 4 seasons. In 1985 Fisher started his coaching career with the Bears as their defensive assistant, and has coached 26 seasons in the NFL. Fisher was head coach of the Tennessee Titans where he had a 142-120 record.

Last year the San Francisco 49ers hired Jim Harbaugh another former Chicago Bears player and they immediately took on his personality. If the Rams have the same luck Jeff Fisher will instill in them a hard-nosed scrappy punch you in the mouth attitude that was severely lacking under Steve Spagnuolo's 4 pillar approach.

Josh McDaniels Heading To New England



Friday the St. Louis Rams gave permission to the New England Patriots to interview Josh McDaniels. This is another sign that the St. Louis Rams could be very close to signing Jeff Fisher as their next head coach. Jeff Fisher would not be inclined to keep McDaniels who has one year left on his contract with the Rams.

Adam Schefter reports that the New England Patriots are expected to hire McDaniels as an offensive assistant. McDaniels will reportedly assist the team during their playoff run. It does upset me that the Rams are helping out the Patriots but to get the deal done with Fisher this is the price they may have to pay.

With Bill O'Brien accepting the head coaching position at Penn State this also opens the door for Josh McDaniels to become the next Offensive Coordinator of the New England Patriots.

Steve Spagnuolo Fired By Rams



The St. Louis Rams finally fired head coach Steve Spagnuolo and GM Billy Deveney on Monday. Spagnuolo was 10-38 as the head coach of the St. Louis Rams. The Rams record was 12-52 with Devaney as the GM and many of his draft picks never even made the roster.

Owner Stan Kroenke said in a statement released by the team. "This was a difficult decision for many reasons. We have tremendous respect for Steve and Billy as people and football professionals.

"No one individual is to blame for this disappointing season and we all must hold ourselves accountable. However, we believe it's in the best interest of the St. Louis Rams to make theses changes as we continue our quest to build a team that consistently competes for playoffs and championships."

The Rams coaching search now begins and former Tennessee Titans coach Jeff Fisher seems to be at the head of their list.
