Jeff Fisher! Wait, hold the phone. No Jeff Fisher? In an article about the vacant Rams HC position? Is that even allowed? is that even possible!? Apparently, it is.
According to Jim Thomas (through PFT), Dennis Allen, defensive coordinator of the Broncos, team of the most glorious QB that ever existed, will be interviewing with the Rams this Thursday for the open HC position. Since Jeff Fisher hasn't made an announcement yet on where he'd like to go, it only seems logical that the Rams would go ahead and interview more than just Jeff Fisher and Ray Horton.
Given the fact that both Horton and Allen are new defensive coordinators, it would seem that the chances of them beating out the big Fish are slim to none, unless he opts to swim with the Dolphins. Football Outsiders ranked the Broncos defense as 19th overall this year (Allen's only year as DC), with the lowest variance (meaning they were incredibly average). Still, the Mile High D has some impressive young players, most notably linebacker Von Miller, who had 11.5 sacks this year.
Fisher said he'd be making a decision either today or tomorrow, so be sure to check out TST for the most up-to-date news on the Rams coaching situation!

Clearly,
Kroenke and Demoff are praying to god that Fisher chooses STL. I don’t even know what to make of this guy.

I like
the fact they are actually interviewing others. Miami started to why not us. By teh way it would be some funny shit if both teams hired someone and Fisher was left out in the cold. Come on Jeff is one or 2 more days going to really change anything? Make a decision already!

Demoff : “I’m bored what are we gonna do today?”
Kroenke:“hmmmm lets interview more people for a job they can’t have haha haha”

HO-HUM and Oh Shit pretty much sums it up...unless Fisher chooses the fish and we move
to DEEP shit mode. At least we aren’t still looking at Gruden which would place us firmly in FULL of Shit mode.

I thought that Kroenke wanted a guy with HC experience?
Maybe he doesn’t like the candidates other than Fisher.
