If Jeff Fisher will move to St. Louis Rams ?


Fisher interviewed with Dolphins owner Stephen Ross on Tuesday in Miami. He met Rams owner Stan Kroenke on Friday in Denver. It's not known if the Bucs contacted Fisher, but he was believed to be one of the candidates the team considered to replace Raheem Morris, who was fired Monday after three seasons. - Tampa Bay Times

As far as an official decision, that could come anytime. Balzer suggests by the end of the weekend. Previous reports suggested early next week. After an interview with Ray Horton in Denver today, the Rams are in compliance with the Rooney Rule. - Turf Show Times


According to numerous reports, money has been no deterrent to Dolphins owner Stephen Ross in his pursuit of Fisher. But Rams owner Stan Kroenke didn’t enter this high-stakes game to lose. He spelled that all out in his meeting with Fisher Thursday. Any financial shortfall, if there actually is one, could possibly be?bridged with significant bonuses for post-season appearances. - 101 Sports

Per league rules, an assistant coach whose team is in the playoffs, such as Philbin, is not permitted to accept an NFL head coaching job until his team’s season is over.
But Fisher could join the Dolphins or Rams immediately because both teams are in compliance with the NFL’s Rooney Rule regarding minority candidates.
Fisher, 53, was 142-120 in 17 seasons with Tennessee before they parted ways after the 2010 season. His teams made six playoff appearances and had a 5-6 record in postseason. - Miami Herald Media
