Will Jeff Fisher end up coaching the Rams?

I don't know their relationships, but I know Fisher is a SoCal guy, so I think there is a good chance he ends up replacing Norv in SD.

Rams are not a good situation. Fisher will practically have his pick of whatever job he wants, and there will be better situations out there.

Terrible life choice if he goes here .. although if they bring in a GM who he respects or has a history with, then all bets are off because I think he wants to win and have plenty of say about the on-field product. I think Fisher would be a fool to jump this early when he's likely going to be rumored for every open job.

Biggest rumors for him are Indy and Tampa. Bucs might be the top choice. They have some players, they just were totally lost this season and it seems like Morris needs to get the boot. Colts seem iffy, but getting a chance to go back into a division he knows might be a big attraction as well as maybe having Andrew Luck from Day 1/Peyton Manning.

I agree with you on Morris, Eagles. He has totally lost that team. One of the worst breakdowns I have ever seen in football.

That Falcons game was the death blow, but that team lacked discipline all year.

Jim Haslett is owed this job.

Got robbed from it by the "Rooney Rule" the first time.

Jeff Fisher will coach the St. Louis Rams next season, a league source tells ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.

Fisher also was a strong candidate to fill the Miami Dolphins' opening. At one point Wednesday night, one source said it was "80-20" that Fisher would choose Miami over St. Louis as his next job.

However, the Dolphins and Fisher could not agree on the structure of the organization, league sources said. Fisher was willing to make some compromises, but the Dolphins wanted general manager Jeff Ireland to remain as the No. 1 man in the organization, and ultimately, it helped unseal any potential deal with the Dolphins, according to the sources.

Fisher sat out the entire 2011 season after being fired by the Tennessee Titans in January. He had served as coach of the franchise for 16 full seasons, including before the Titans moved from Houston to Tennessee. He led the Titans within a yard of winning the 2000 Super Bowl.

St. Louis is replacing coach Steve Spagnuolo and general manager Billy Devaney after a 2-14 season.

He will get full control of the Rams and the GM job.....the franchise will move to Cali within 5 years.

This guy has a great business mind. Plans ahead.
