Hopefully he will actually coach a defense that his father or brother won't be embarrassed by this season. I don't like hiring a guy whose defenses have never been above average who lives off his family name but hes a Ram now so hopefully he does well.
My god now some of you are questioning Fishers judgement because he made a hire that you a common fan dont understand or agree with???I mean comon people im not telling you to like it but to question the man you were just saying is a good coach and trust what he does you flip flop to now your not sure if your trust his judgement....comical.I trust Fish he knows what hes doing and he certainly has better judgement of which coach to hire than me ill be the first to admit that,can some of you?No
I agree with you, but I think there's a better way to say it than this.Quote:

We may be but common fans, but what is the Clan if not a place to air grievances, share sympathies, and celebrate emphatically? Let the debate continue.
His teams haven't been in the playoffs. His defense's ratings have been below average. I will give that. The context is, he coached with the RAIDERS and BROWNS, then was a scapegoat for Jerry Jones. Excuses are easy, but he's had to work hard to shape a turd out of diarrhea. In his best statistical year (2006 Raiders), he led the 3rd ranked defense while they had the 32nd ranked offense. How that happens, I don't even know.
He hasn't proven himself as a coordinator, that's true, but I trust Jeff Fisher. There is inside knowledge he knows better than not only fans, but other coaches. It says a lot that this was the only interview they even bothered having for a DC. They have 4 former DCs on their staff and could've easily promoted from within.

Gives "Browns" a whole new meaning.Quote:

But that's good IMHO. Ryan has an excellent opportunity indeed to 'prove himself'. There's Coach Fisher at the helm, and a good, young crew of Rams players that have already tasted / seen what they're capable of. [BTW, 4-3 will stay (because I said so).] It would seem to me that RR is really looking forward to being with us. Therefore...
2013 should be a considerable improvement for a Ryan Rams D. All the best to our new DC.

Absolutely. The talent the Rams have is obvious (how long has it been since we could say that???), so this year is do-or-die for Rob Ryan. I like his chances.Quote:
