Is Jeff Fisher Done As A Coach?

The Los Angeles Rams relieved Jeff Fisher of his head coaching duties on Monday.

Jeff Fisher is no longer the head coach of the Los Angeles Rams.

The move was made a day after an embarrassing 42-14 home loss in front of a sparse Los Angeles crowd.

Most NFL fans seemed to agree this season that Jeff Fisher must be the smoothest dude in the league to still have a head coaching gig.

Fisher hasn’t coached a winning team since 2008.

In 20 plus years of head coaching, Fisher has only won five playoff games. That’s not exactly a great ratio.

Fisher was 31-45-1 during his five years as the Rams’ head coach. His best season with the Rams was his first, in 2012, when he went 7-8-1.

So what happens to the former Tennessee Titans head coach now?

Fisher, as mentioned before, has been a head coach since 1994 when he took over as the Houston Oilers head coach in the middle of the season.

The only year since 1994 that Fisher hasn’t been a head coach was in 2011, the year after he mutually parted ways with the Titans.

It would be incredibly difficult to imagine Fisher going back to being a defensive coordinator after all these years as the man in charge.

I’m also not so sure it would even be a good move for a team to hire Fisher as a coordinator. It just seems like it would be a situation destined for conflict.

So perhaps Fisher could get a college head coaching job?

I’d say that’s also highly unlikely.

Fisher has zero experience coaching in college. There’s simply no way he could end up coaching a college program.

Which pretty means Fisher has only one option if he wants to stay around football — television.

Most head coaches could probably do pretty well in television (minus Bill Belichick of course), because they’re accustomed to talking to the media on a weekly, if not almost daily, basis.

Fisher, with his two decades of head coaching experience, is obviously well seasoned.

And it probably wouldn’t be too hard for him to land a job.

Former NFL head coaches like Tony Dungy and Steve Mariucci make great analysts because they offer insight that very few others can offer.

Fisher has been around a long time and coached some great players. It would definitely be fun to hear some of his tales.

I wouldn’t be surprised, however, if Fisher takes another year off before deciding how to proceed with his career.

Next: Titans Control Their Own Destiny

Special teams coordinator John Fassel will be the the Rams’ interim head coach for the rest of the season.
