With Sam Bradford out for the season and probably finished as a Ram, I'm concerned about Jeff Fisher. Excellent coach, but Hawks and 49ers are elite teams, Cardinals possibly playoff material. Now the Rams have to reboot on finding a QB - no easy solutions, so Fisher has his work cut out for him...I wish him luck - after this game. ;)

Your list?

Marty Schottenheimer would be on mine, as well. Marv Levy and Bud Grant, too.

Dan Reeves and maybe Chuck Knox.

Active coaches John Fox has to get consideration. He has gotten two teams to the Superbowl.

Can't put him ahead of Bud Grant and Mav Levy both took teams to four Super Bowl.

I'd put Whisenhunt in my list. I thought he did a great job in AZ and got treated unfairly at the end. Very interested to see how he does in TN.

This is all opinion based stuff but I wouldn't list Fisher.

He is at 53% winning percentage for his career and he is under .500 in the playoffs.
He's had three separate regular season teams win 13 games but has gotten past one playoff win in a season only once. --lost SB that season with an outstanding team.

To put that in perspective Wade Phillips who is considered a professional coordinator but laughingstock head coach has a 56% winning percentage and 6 playoff games. --Only 1 playoff win...
The 2007 Cowboys are the only elite teams had. 13 wins. Lost to the eventual Giants after beating them twice in the regular season.
