51. . . Los Angeles Rams. Jeff Fisher. 4. player
At the beginning of the season, Los Angeles Rams head coach Jeff Fisher made it clear on the HBO series Hard Knocks that he wasn’t interested in any “7-9 bulls**t”. Unfortunately for him, the Rams might be lucky if they’re able to get seven wins on the year.
Los Angeles was barely able to scrape out a 9-6 win over the New York Jets last week, but now the schedule gets a whole lot harder. Over their next five games, the Rams will be playing the Dolphins on Sunday followed by games against the Saints, Patriots, Falcons and Seahawks.
Good luck getting two wins during that stretch.
To make things even more interesting, the Rams have decided to finally name No. 1 overall pick Jared Goff their starting quarterback for Sunday’s game against Miami. Fans have been waiting to see Goff start since Week 1, but they’ll be upset if he doesn’t play well after sitting for more than half of the season.
Sure, Fisher may have gotten a contract extension in September, but that was back when the Rams were somehow still winning games. Los Angeles is now just 1-4 in its last five games, and another loss on Sunday could signal the end of Fisher’s tenure with the Rams.
