St Louis Rams: Why Possible Move to L.A. Shouldn't Scare Away Coach Jeff Fisher

It seems as if the great city of Los Angeles may be a stumbling block in the way of former Tennessee Titans coach Jeff Fisher becoming the next head coach of the St. Louis Rams.

The details of the problem are very sketchy, but Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk cites a tweet from Rams' beat writer Jim Thomas that says a potential move to L.A. may be hindering the talk between Fisher and the Rams organization:

The Rams are one of the franchises that have been potentially targeted to eventually move to Los Angeles, but as Florio states in his report, it's not clear what the actual hangup is for Fischer.

Either way, it looks like this might be something that can, at the very least, slow down the process of him becoming the Rams coach.

If I can be honest for a moment, I don't see how this is a big deal for Fisher.

It's understandable that stability has to be a concern when taking any job, and going from St. Louis to Los Angeles is quite an adjustment, but then again, you're signing on the line to be an NFL head coach.

Everybody wants to be a professional athlete at some point and there are actually many people that dream of coaching at the professional level.

I could literally line up thousands of people who would do anything for the opportunity to coach the Rams, even if you were to move them to Bangladesh the very next season.

All I'm saying is: Have a little bit of perspective, Fisher—you're living the dream.

I get that when all is said and done, the NFL is a business and a potential future move is more than just getting a new stadium.

It's a new house, selling your old place, moving, acclimating to the differences and of course all the pressure of being a professional sports team in Los Angeles.

In the end, this shouldn't scare Fisher away from coaching the Rams.

He's got a good quarterback in Sam Bradford and the opportunity to turn a franchise around.

If it's in St. Louis, that's probably preferable for many people, but if it happens to be in L.A., I wouldn't complain.

At the very least, he can work on his tan.
