After 5 consecutive losing seasons, it is unfathomable to me that Fisher could be extended. Sad to say, it's not only a possibility - it's a probability. I usually watch college ball at this time of year hoping to glimpse THE player that could help this franchise turn the corner. That player could already be on the roster but Fisher refuses to let him even see the field. Combine that with tby guinnessram - RamsFootballFans.com
Yep, after 5 years it all comes back to Fisher. I have trouble understanding how any poster can see it any other way. After 5 losing seasons (which is a lifetime in the NFL and usually a death knell for a HC) the only hope we have of turning this ship around is Goff. I hope that Fisher's refusal to even let that ship leave the dock costs him his job. Kevin P.by guinnessram - RamsFootballFans.com

QuotePHDram as with just about every game this season it could have ended in victory but the lack of offensive production and mistakes at key times kills this team. That is Fisher's legacy as HC of the Rams: Anemic offense coupled with critical turnovers & penalties. After 5 years of the "same ole same ole" it's hard to think "it could have ended in victory".

Even if you cherry pick "the last 4 games......." its: 34.8 28.6 87.3 29.7 for an avg of 45.1. Keenum is last in the NFL (32nd) on the same site. As the wise man once said: "Facts are facts." Kevin P.by guinnessram - RamsFootballFans.com

He mentions "silly penalties" and "a high penalty rate". He must be one of those fans that refuse to recognize their improvement in this area "the last 3 games".

Ed Werder said the Broncos should acquire a "game manager" like Keenum to augment their stellar D in order to make another run @ the Super Bowl. He said it would also give them "a bridge QB" and more time to develop Simien and Paxton Lynch.

Last night I watched the Bears manhandle the Vikes using the same formula that Fisher tries to espouse: Good D, ST and running game with enough passing thrown in to keep the other team's D honest. The only difference between the formula the Bears used to beat the Vikes and a Fisher coached team: PENALTIES. The Bears compiled a TOTAL of 2 penalties ( Vikes only 1) last night.

The fact that Keenum is the 32nd ranked QB in the NFL speaks volumes to me. Fisher is throwing away yet another season by doggedly believing that he can win with Keenum despite evidence to the contrary. Some can't believe the volume of Fisher bashing posts.

If what Bonsignore says is true, then something good is going to happen for Ram fans. Either we win 6 of our last 9 and Fisher proves he has what it takes to lead a team to a winning record (and probably playoffs) or we can move on as a franchise from JF.

Fisher told Fouts he foresaw a "16-13 game". When you have a coach who is game planning for his team to score 16 and consistently asks his D to hold opponents under that, the main problem is not with the QB or the WR's. Toss in double digit penalties every week, and the losses fall at the head of the HC. Kevin P. BTW: Who drafted or signed said WR's?by guinnessram - RamsFootballFans.com
Robinson is a bigger bust than Jason Smith. I wouldn't even give him a plane ride back to the states. Bench his sorry azz! Fouts said early in the game: "Robinson is struggling this year like he did all of last." When you consider that he struggled the year before, he has solidified himself as one of the all-time busts.

I usually get this feeling with about 3 games to go: I want the Rams to win but a loss would improve our draft status (Something we don't have to concern ourselves with for a couple of years). Once again, I don't know how to feel.

No wonder we are ranked last or close to last on O under Fisher's regime. This team has been hard to watch under Fisher's guidance and this is the reason why. I doubt if LA fans will show up to watch a team that can surpass 300 yds passing once every 2 or 3 years.

Although I am encouraged by the "positive trends" on offense as well Speed, you have to look at the overall (losing) picture of our offense under Fisher.

NFL Insiders did a segment on the questions facing various franchises regarding the QB. They said that Kelly may insert Kap to "provide a spark".
