Just curious. If you had your choice of current NFL or college coaches you think would be the best head coach to lead the Rams for the next many years, who would it be and why?

I'll throw out a couple of lesser known names if Fisher is gone after this year. Rich Dennison, OC of the Denver Bronco's. Has a pretty lengthy resume as a QB coach and OC. But the name that might be on top of my list has a lesser resume but is learning from a good mind is Harold Goodwin, OC Arizona Cardinals. He's been an OLine coach for years and OC in AZ when Arians took over.

Teryl Austin is a possible DC mind to take over.

I don't think Urban or Harbaugh come out of college yet.

That's a thoughtful idea. I like it.

Fisher for continuity amongst so much else. He has been and continues to build a strong, core team. Yeah 7-9 runs old yet I see this team forming into shape (playoffs) this season and many more to follow.

Believe me, I am not trying to argue with you, but Belichick has been Patriots head coach since 2000. I am not saying it should be Belichick. Lord forbid. Too old. Too Assholious. But is there someone out there in your mind that could live up to that kind of consistency?

What always amuses me about the anti-JF threads - (yes OP, that was your intent), is the quoting of his overall record.

Like Houston, and then Tennessee, with Bud Adams, the latter day male equivalent of the baby door, was some kind of dream job.

If (the general) you cannot see what he's done in 4 short years - attitude, depth and talent wise, then you're simply ignorant about the NFL.

Ignorant being different than stupid - it can be fixed. Start paying attention.
Quit playing fantasy football, and get a clue.

And pray Fisher's still the coahc in 2020.

For the record you were the only one to bring up Fisher having a negative record. In fact most of the replies are affirmative for Fisher.

Nice technique calling people ignorant and insulting two cities.

Wow keeping on insulting people. This I hear is a great way to win discussions on the intrawebz. Also in case you were ignorant of the facts regarding fantasy football Head Coaches are rarely if ever a position you take for your fantasy football team.

Meh we'll see what happens but 8 years of Fisher is always possible. Most of us read the OP and got the impression that he was looking for alternatives if Fisher isn't retained but you decided to open both barrels and attack. I gave a couple options if we the Rams decide to go a different way. Fisher as you described is a great guy at building a roster and building up a team. His history does show that he struggles getting those talented teams to the next level. Personally I see him taking a front office job either with the Rams or possibly with his alma mater now that he's back around USC. He's relatively young at 58 but with 19 years coaching under his belt he may look for something different it's hard to tell.
