Hey everyone, the Rams are back in Los Angeles! That's what many of the Rams fans of the past and future were thinking when Stan Kroenke pulled the team out of St. Louis and moved them to Los Angeles. There was excitement throughout the entire Los Angeles area about having an NFL team again. That was until Monday night when the Rams took on division rival San Francisco 49ers. The Rams looked like a mid-major college team taking on a defending national champion Power 5 school. The 49ers blew out the Rams 28-0. But that didn't get Jeff Fisher down.
During the post-game interview, Fisher commented on how he was "disappointed," but that there were "15 other teams that lost", and that the Rams were, "looking pretty good." Looking pretty good? It's true that there were 15 other teams that lost, but no other team was shutout like the Rams. As a matter of fact, the average NFL team lost by 7.6 points. The Rams lost by 28. So don't worry Rams fans, Jeff Fisher sees everything in a positive light. The fact that they had the worst loss out of the entire league to a team that isn't expected to make much of a splash doesn't concern Coach Fisher, a.k.a. Captain Average.
The Rams organization should feel pretty good about it as well. They just gave Fisher a contract extension which means Fisher will have plenty of time to come up with all kinds of excuses and new ways to tell everyone to look on the bright side.
To all the fans in Los Angeles and St. Louis Rams fans that stayed fans after they dumped you -- I still don't understand how you can stay loyal to an organization that isn't loyal to you -- they're your problem now.
