Doesn't that make it just as bad since he was asked about their running backs and Amendola is a receiver. Thing is can we expect no less from Fish I mean in all fairness he was asked about the offensive side of the ball. An to Fish hell QB, WR, RB, TE they all look the same.

At least Fish, to his credit shows how consistent he is, he don't give a damn about our offense so why should he anyone else's.

My biggest worry would have to be when was he asked this cause if just after the NO game then ok, but if he was asked sometime in this week. Sometime after he had already said NO is behind us and we are looking forward to NE.

If this question was asked after he "allegedly" had started game planning for them and "allegedly" was watching film. An after doing these things he still had so little of a clue.

All I can say it is becoming even clearer why most weeks are a epic fail for us and also means if he had already began to game for them and watched film.......Holy heck we are so screwed this weekend.

It's not uncommon for an answer to wander from the original question, here's The Rams spin:

Rams explain how Jeff Fisher wasn't really mixing up names of Patriots RBs
Turns out Fisher actually knew who he was talking about.

Rams coach Jeff Fisher came under some fire on Wednesday after his conference call with members of the New England media. Ahead of LA’s meeting with the Patriots on Sunday, Fisher was asked about New England’s three-headed monster at running back: LeGarrette Blount, Dion Lewis and James White.

Only, Fisher referenced Brandon and Danny, for some reason. Some believed he was talking about Brandon Bolden, a special teamer, and Danny Woodhead, who’s on IR for the Chargers. However, only one of those is correct.

“Coach Fisher was referring to Danny Amendola, who played for the Rams,” a Rams spokesman told ProFootbalTalk. “He was talking about some of the threats they have.”

Hmm, are we to believe that Fisher was talking about a wide receiver when asked about the team’s running backs? It’s certainly possible, and maybe he misheard the question. However, the fact that he mentioned Brandon – which the spokesman confirmed was about Brandon Bolden – is concerning. He has just one rush attempt and two catches this season.

Fisher was talking about what “Brandon [has] done out of the backfield,” and not his production, but the way they line him up all over the field.

Make of this what you will, but no matter who Fisher was talking about, it’s not a great look for a coach on the hot seat. He should be well aware of both Lewis and White in addition to Blount as both scatbacks are integral parts of the offense, unlike Bolden.

Yeah, Belichick would have fired himself if he'd netted what Fisher has with the Rams.

It's not just the team's record, it's the state of the team. Yeah, organizationally I think the Rams are better off than they were under Spagnuolo but I don't think that Fisher did anything in that regard that any number of other guys couldn't have done. So, no we have to look at the actual football part of things and this team isn't significantly better on the field and it isn't for any other reason that Fisher, his decisions and his approach.

Draft picks have been wasted, units aren't solidified, much less good/productive and ultimately, the team has regressed from year 1 to year 5 in the w/l column. It's really unforgivable that Fisher has had the amount of draft picks and FA money to improve this team and it's almost in the same spot it was 5 years ago.

I don't think there's any reason to give him any more chances.

According to the big hitters like Ian Rappport, Peter King, Mark Clayton and many more. They all think Fisher is safe.

Stan is a patient man. If you look at history, he keeps coaches around a long time.


THIS - and don't forget that Stan is (trying) to model the Rams after the Patriot way. He truly believes in stability; especially at top positions. I think best-case scenario is Stan insists on an entirely new offensive staff and that Fisher gets and stays out of their way. Good luck with that Stan E.

I can't imagine Kroenke not knowing the difference between continuity and stability because that's what we're talking about with Fisher. The primary function of stability in this case is being competitive AND winning. Just having a shot at the playoffs every year and Fisher doesn't provide that. If Kroenke re-hires Fisher it will truly be the definition of insanity. Doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results is the limbo that the Rams are in with Fisher.

Stability isn't having a 6 win team every year but that is continuity. I sure hope Stan is looking for stability and not continuity. Many have said that he doesn't demand much from his sports franchises but I don't follow hockey, basketball or soccer. If he re-hires Fisher, I will know what they mean and sadly, lose a lot of respect and hope for Kroenke.

It is a 70% chance that Fisher will be back. The deal is already been done. 3 year deal with opt outs after 1 or 2. Payback for getting me out of the Lou.

I'm glad to be here. Thank you.


He needs to go away. Don't bullshit me. I want to hear the truth. I've had it with being a fan of a losing football team. The Raiders are amazing and we're a laughingstock. The RAIDERS!

And to say "This thing is gonna thrive with Goff under center." Then why hasn't he been starting, fucker?!?!?!?! We BEGGED for him VOCALLY at a home game in the stands when Keenum was struggling and you told us to shut up, then claimed you didn't hear it. You're full of shit.

Hes a god damn used car salesman pretending to be an NFL head coach.

Only 3 losses to go before Fisher earns the title of "Losingest NFL coach in History". Maybe Kroenke wants to keep Fisher around long enough for his career record to dip below .500 while we're at it. Currently at 173-163-1, sub .500 is totally in reach
