Jeff Fisher Fired by Rams

[ALLD]

ESPN reporting the mercy killing at 3pm.

[86WARD]

Possibly the most overrated coach in NFL history. The only one possibly more overrated would be Mike Shannahan.

[tube517]

Eric Dickerson is smiling.

[86WARD]

Also the Rams probably fired Fisher at the worst possible time with 3-days to prepare for the TNF game versus the Seahawks...lol

[silver & black]

I'm surprised it took this long.

[BnG_Hevn]

Why is eric dickerson smiling? I heard reference to it on NFL radio, not heard beef between the two.

[86WARD]

Dickerson basically thought he was a crappy coach from what I hear...lol.

Long overdue, but it's finally done. Maybe Jared Goff's career may be saved.

Jeff Fisher sucks.

Shanhan and Fisher are on two different stratospheres.

Mike Shanahan actually had success. Yeah, it was mostly due to Elway and Davis, but Shanahan wasn't a bad coach at all. He went to the AFC Championship Game with Jake Plummer.

Jeff Fisher's only claim to fame was one miracle playoff victory over the Bills and almost winning the Super Bowl.

[86WARD]

Shanahan blew too...waaaaaaaay overrated. If he was that good of a coach, he would've had some sort of success in Washington...

[Devilsdancefloor]

Coach 8-8 will be his legacy.

So that 2-year extension turned out to be only 1 week. Jeff Fisher in 2 decades as a head coach has 6 playoff appearances, 5 playoff wins from 3 seasons with playoff wins. Oh and Fisher hasn't made the playoff since Keith Bullock and Lendale White stomped on the terrible towel

Actually the extension happened at the beginning of the season. They waited until last week to announce it.

I've been laughing my ass off at the Rams, the city of LA and the NFL all season. They all got what they deserved.

[86WARD]

They did that extension in June or something like that.

They'll make a big play for Harbaugh...he's the only thing that would get those fans excited.

Dickerson has already mentioned his name specifically.

I don't think anything is gonna get them excited in LA. That's a big reason why they moved to St. Louis in the first place.

His name does keep coming up. What's the list? All the usual feeler phone calls have been made/are being made. Is Norv Turner on that list?

One Yahoo report says Pete Carroll would be their "improbable" dream coach.

[86WARD]

I heard a report that Whisenhunt could be one...LMAO.

[Born2Steel]

Whisenhunt had a cup of coffee in SD, right? Maybe a fit.

[86WARD]

Whisenhunt is a coordinator. Nothing more...

[ALLD]

They need a college coach to rebuild.

Yep. Out of the 22 seasons he was a head coach, he had 6 winning seasons, 5 .500 seasons, and the other 11 seasons were losing seasons.
