. . Los Angeles Rams. Jeff Fisher. 2. player. 51

Jeff Fisher preached to the Los Angeles Rams all offseason that he wasn’t interested in any “7-9 bulls**t”. Unfortunately for Fisher and the Rams, they’ll be lucky if their season is that successful.

The Rams are currently 4-6 with an absolutely brutal schedule coming up with upcoming games against the Patriots, Falcons and Seahawks coming up after this week. Sunday’s game against the New Orleans Saints is winnable, but there’s no guarantee that they come out on top.

Many criticized Jeff Fisher for sitting No. 1 overall pick Jared Goff until last week, but the rookie didn’t exactly have a great game. The rookie QB will have a chance to put up some solid numbers against an atrocious Saints secondary this week, but a poor performance could spell disaster for Goff.

As for Fisher, he’ll be getting plenty of heat for the devision to wait until last week to start Goff. If the Rams can’t pull it together to finish out the year, then there’s a good chance that their head coach will be on his way out.
