What 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.
We'll be on Twitter with all kinds of Fisher talk and more, so be sure to follow us @TurfShowTimes. Be sure to join our growing little Facebook community as well.

Why did Fisher fly Southwest Airlines?
No change fees in case he wanted to go to Miami after Rams visit lol
VTramsFan - January 9, 2012
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!!
Mark Jaramillo - January 9, 2012
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.
johnny scuba - January 9, 2012
no your thinking of ken NORTON jr.
Mark Jaramillo - January 9, 2012
He flew Southwest because bags fly free...
Da Rams! - January 9, 2012
Oh, good news for Mrs Fisher!
DCRamFan - January 9, 2012
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!!!
SMASH44 - January 10, 2012
Good to see him with
brew in hand. Kind of looks like he may have already consumed a few prior to the pic!
RamTeaPartier - January 9, 2012
What in the world is this dude waiting on?
He’s gotta know where he wants to go at this point
DCRamFan - January 9, 2012
I don't know much about his personal life,
but I imagine he’s getting his family’s input as well.
FailureDrill - January 9, 2012 via Android app
F them
DCRamFan - January 9, 2012
Haha...
“Honey, kids- pack your shit! We’re moving to the land of milk and honey, er— Budweiser and barbecue!”

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.
DCRamFan - January 9, 2012
Eloquent, succinct, and thoughtful.
Can’t blame a gal for wanting as much time as possible on that magnificent squirrel-tail.
FailureDrill - January 9, 2012 via Android app
lmao
VTramsFan - January 9, 2012
and that will be the worst thing I read all day...
HAHAH
Joe Mazzi - January 9, 2012
Downright hurtful
damn Penguin

You're welcome for that mental image.

Ram_Redemption - January 9, 2012
Worst. Sports Logo. Ever.
But wasn’t that Preds game on Saturday? He didn’t spend much time in STL it seems.
Boofer - January 9, 2012
the caption on the picture says 'last season'
DCRamFan - January 9, 2012
so if fisher joins miami
we’re fucked
Ram_Redemption - January 9, 2012
Proper fucked, Turkish?
FailureDrill - January 9, 2012 via Android app
im not gonna lie
im not sure what to make of this statement. lol
Ram_Redemption - January 9, 2012
Movie nerd reference.
Guy Ritchie’s “Snatch”. A must-see, if only to see Brad Pitt stagger around with a thick Pikey accent.
FailureDrill - January 9, 2012 via Android app
almost as good as Lock, Stock
DCRamFan - January 9, 2012
lol netflix
today
Ram_Redemption - January 9, 2012
Lock, Stock is a great flick too.
I’d also see Rocknrolla to complete the trifecta.
FailureDrill - January 9, 2012 via Android app
already done
though it wasn’t on the level of the two aforementioned flicks.
DCRamFan - January 9, 2012
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”.
Ram_Redemption - January 9, 2012
"close friend to fisher says that he is 95 percent sure to join the rams"
http://blogs.miaminewtimes.com/riptide/2012/01/jeff_fisher_leaning_towards_st.php
Ram_Redemption - January 9, 2012
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.
FailureDrill - January 9, 2012 via Android app
Yea fish im growing out my stache for u
kevio3000 - January 9, 2012 via Android app
I'am glad we are talking about fisher.
because i’am sure getting sick of the media talking about tebow.
crazy mike - January 9, 2012
You don't like the 316 yard/John 3:16 talk?!?!
DCRamFan - January 9, 2012
oh my lord lol I wanted the broncos to lose so bad just so the tebowmania would go away
diehardram87 - January 9, 2012
I feel real sorry for Thomas - over 200 yards receiving, the winning TD, and yet all the talk is about Tebow...
JoolzMF - January 9, 2012
Yea i know..The dude was beasting yesterday
diehardram87 - January 9, 2012
AMEN

For sale - Tufts of Jeff Fisher's Goatee
Seems that I may have been a little premature on my Ebay purchase.
Mister T - January 9, 2012
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…
JonHatesMilk - January 9, 2012 via iPhone app
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...
JoolzMF - January 9, 2012
We'd end up with Rick James, DC from Arizona
Barf
DCRamFan - January 9, 2012
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.
FailureDrill - January 9, 2012 via Android app
I'd be embarassed if it's Rick James
DCRamFan - January 9, 2012
Grinding his feet into Kroenke's couch.
FailureDrill - January 9, 2012 via Android app
buy another one ya rich motherfucker
diehardram87 - January 9, 2012
Good point! Who exactly is Plan B?
Douglas M - January 9, 2012
That's my worry Doug - Sherman was my plan B, and yet the Buccs look like they're gonna take him
JoolzMF - January 9, 2012
Do you think Kroenke has gone all in on Fisher, with no back-up plan? I wonder who is #2 on his list?
Douglas M - January 9, 2012
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
JoolzMF - January 9, 2012
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) ?
Douglas M - January 9, 2012
***Brian Bellick***
Douglas M - January 9, 2012
If Demoff Jr cant make this happen
I’ll blame him for all of our shortcomings in 2012
DCRamFan - January 9, 2012
If he can't, with his own dad being Fisher's agent, then we have a problem
JoolzMF - January 9, 2012
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
DCRamFan - January 9, 2012
I understand D, but if there was absolute decision made we'd have heard by now, instead of this "50-50" crap
JoolzMF - January 9, 2012
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.
Joe Mazzi - January 9, 2012
Excellent point
JoolzMF - January 9, 2012
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
DCRamFan - January 9, 2012
Wish it was the real Rick James...
SUPERFEEEEEAK!
JoolzMF - January 9, 2012
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…
Joe Mazzi - January 9, 2012
what do you wanna talk about after he's hired?
Draft? Capitals? Tebow?
DCRamFan - January 9, 2012
Doesn't matter - that's all we're gonna get anyway lol
JoolzMF - January 9, 2012
Should be the National Championship
but I’ll be the first to admit that I really don’t give a damn.
Joe Mazzi - January 9, 2012
well unless he's hired before 8:30EST tonight
the Natl Championship’ll be over, silly! We’ll talk Caps…
DCRamFan - January 9, 2012
Oh, praise be to Tebow!
Joe Mazzi - January 9, 2012
How about this new kid on the block - his name's Tom Toweb, or something...
We should get him…
JoolzMF - January 9, 2012
I'ts pronounced 'Tim Tebow'
DCRamFan - January 9, 2012
Ah crap...
JoolzMF - January 9, 2012
Jimmy Johnson hath spoken.
bq.Sounds like no Fisher, they don’t like Billick so Mularky would be my next choice for Dolphins — JimmyJohnson (@JimmyJohnson)
Sigh.
