Another Jeff Fisher Update? Yes.

in St. Louis Rams Hire Jeff Fisher

PrintWhat good is a 24-hour, minute-by-minute news cycle if you haven't had a Jeff Fisher update in at least three hours? We're sort of ashamed. Sort of. Surprisingly enough there isn't much news to report, other than a handful of anecdotal stuff trickling in from various places.
Nobody really knows, not even Fisher from the sound of things. He's walled up with his family considering his options between the St. Louis Rams and the Miami Dolphins.
Yesterday, Jay Glazer of Fox Sports said that he "would be shocked" if Fisher didn't pick the Rams. Of course, that got twisted and trans-mutated into a report that Fisher would indeed pick the Rams, but that's not what Glazer said at all.
This morning on SportsCenter, Adam Schefter went the other way, south. "The sense I'm getting around the league is that Miami has a slight advantage right now," he said on the air. For reason Fisher would be leaning Miami, we don't know.
News crews from the NFL Network have set up shop at Rams Park, provoking some to wonder if a decision isn't coming today. With Fisher likely to announce later this week, the TV trucks will start showing up now, if they aren't already there. I suspect it's the same in Miami.
Peter King said this morning in his MMQB column that he expects Fisher to make a decision by Thursday.
Finally, if you're looking for something that's probably most in line with reality, Mike Silver of Yahoo! says Fisher is truly "50-50" between both teams.

you know...
it would be pretty F’d up! for fisher to be teasing like he is! to make a cameo appearance at rams park, talking to bradford, etc, etc. showing interest, then all of a sudden, change of heart, then go to miami!?? i would be one pissed off mofo at him if he doesnt take this gig. and to be honest…
i dont freakin WANT that horton dude from arizona!…AT ALL!!

I wouldn't call it a cameo.
Just part of the interview process. Looking at the facilities and whatnot. Did the same in Miami earlier.
I don’t want another inexperienced DC either, and my hope is that if Fish does decide on Miami the front office opens the door to a few more candidates.
Gotta find a coordinator that can step up and do daddy’s job. Third time’s a charm?

Dude,
Was it not that Horton jerk off that used to play for the 49ers and everytime he scored he would punch our goal posts. If indeed it is, NO WAY I want that butt whipe to be our next coach. So I totally agree on that point.
You know what would be F'd up
If f\Fisher was the Lebron James of NFL HC’s and called a news confrence to say he was going to be the Pats new D coordinator!!!! lol!!!

Good to see him with
brew in hand. Kind of looks like he may have already consumed a few prior to the pic!
I don't know much about his personal life,
but I imagine he’s getting his family’s input as well.

Dear Mrs Fisher
Stop being a selfish bitch. I need hope in 2012, and it starts with you freein up some of hubbies moustache-ride time.
Eloquent, succinct, and thoughtful.
Can’t blame a gal for wanting as much time as possible on that magnificent squirrel-tail.

Worst. Sports Logo. Ever.
But wasn’t that Preds game on Saturday? He didn’t spend much time in STL it seems.

Lock, Stock is a great flick too.
I’d also see Rocknrolla to complete the trifecta.

i ahte the media. how does every analyst in the world predict that fisher is favoring the rams
and then one lil douche says “o no my people are telling me that he wants miami”. lol who the hell are ur people then? in the words of jay z, “either they lyin to you, or somebody lyin to them”.
95%.
IT’S A LEGIT 95% BUT SEMI-50/50-ISH!
Sorry, I’m all FWPK’d up today. I’m selling all rumors and inside sources until Fish makes the announcement.

I'am glad we are talking about fisher.
because i’am sure getting sick of the media talking about tebow.
I feel real sorry for Thomas - over 200 yards receiving, the winning TD, and yet all the talk is about Tebow...

Fisher fishy fish fish
I’d rather take on NFC west QB teams at this point vs Brady, but you gotta think he had to go up against Manning twice a year in his old division so I dont think that’ll be as much of a deciding factor in his decision as everyone on ESPN keeps saying…

My (slight) concern is if we don't happen to sway Fisher our way - we're gonna struggle for a plan B, because there are other teams out there who are also looking for HCs...
"Roses are red, violets are blue, sugar is sweet - I'm gonna break your face..." The Champ
I'm actually not displeased with the prospect of Horton as plan b.
All the Cards fans that I’ve read think he’s pretty stellar. On top of that, we’d be immediately weakening a division opponent.
Trying to look at the bright side of things, I guess. Could be worse- Tampa is interviewing 68-year old Marty Schottenheimer. The experienced coaching pool isn’t exactly deep.

That's my worry Doug - Sherman was my plan B, and yet the Buccs look like they're gonna take him
"Roses are red, violets are blue, sugar is sweet - I'm gonna break your face..." The Champ
Put yourself in his situation - who would be your second choice Doug? Cause I bet, unless they're not interested, they're already being scouted by other teams
"Roses are red, violets are blue, sugar is sweet - I'm gonna break your face..." The Champ
I don't really want another OC or DC in his first move to HC again
What happened to Bill Bellick? I thought he was the Miami top choice until the Fisher bid war started? Would he make a decent HC? GM?
Marty Schottenheimer(sp) ?
If he can't, with his own dad being Fisher's agent, then we have a problem
"Roses are red, violets are blue, sugar is sweet - I'm gonna break your face..." The Champ
my point exactly
but with that being said, unless their relationship is garbage, maybe I/we should find solace in the fact that we’re not interviewing other candidates
I understand D, but if there was absolute decision made we'd have heard by now, instead of this "50-50" crap
"Roses are red, violets are blue, sugar is sweet - I'm gonna break your face..." The Champ
I heard that Jeff Fisher prefers the Rams
yet I can neither confirm nor deny these rumors. Interesting and intriguing has become humdrum and angering. Jason LaCanfora has joined Tebow amongst my most hated people of 2012.

Excellent point
"Roses are red, violets are blue, sugar is sweet - I'm gonna break your face..." The Champ
I'll tell you that I'll be that much more pissed
if he goes to Miami and we START our search for HC over again
Wish it was the real Rick James...
SUPERFEEEEEAK!
"Roses are red, violets are blue, sugar is sweet - I'm gonna break your face..." The Champ
I've been watching NFL Network since I woke up this morning.
So far I’ve seen like 5 different interviews regarding Fisher and they’ve all said the exact same thing. Imma punch someone in the face if I don’t turn this off soon…but I can’t…

Doesn't matter - that's all we're gonna get anyway lol

Should be the National Championship
but I’ll be the first to admit that I really don’t give a damn.

well unless he's hired before 8:30EST tonight
the Natl Championship’ll be over, silly! We’ll talk Caps…
How about this new kid on the block - his name's Tom Toweb, or something...
We should get him…

bq.Sounds like no Fisher, they don’t like Billick so Mularky would be my next choice for Dolphins — JimmyJohnson (@JimmyJohnson)
Sigh.
