Im not saying Fairchild was the guy that made the Rams O so dominant, but he certainly must have learned something from Martz.
The Rams had a hell of an exciting O, why do you hate this?
I think I love it!!! AVP said we should go to single back, spread more to open up the lanes for McGahee, the Rams run a spread alot.
Hell, even Fitzpatrick played well. Bulger has looked great and so did Warner. You know the guy also believes in O-line help with Pace and Alex Barron.
I like it!!!
STL, even with a injured Bulger and Fitz in for 4 games ended 9th in total O.
Thats a hell of alot better than 29th. Add in some help onthe O and D lines, and a rebound from our D, we could be very good.

Time to cut the BS! Hire a QUALIFIED And QUALITY OC! This to me says they are going to bring in a guy to work gamefilm, suggest the plays for the week, but sits while MM AGAIN calls the plays. That is exactly what this looks like.

I don't like any pass-happy offenses. I want to see a power running game.

Re: Rams will allow Bills to interview Fairchild
The Bills are going to the lower profile, less experience set at the Coordinator positions - we should all just face that. There will be no Norv Turners or Dom Capers in Buffalo, especially while Mularkey is HC. That said, since we are going in the direction of less-experience for coordinators, we should try to evaluate these candidates in comparison to other realistic possibilities. In that light, I wouldn't mind Fairchild. The Rams ran the ball a lot more after Martz got sick, and I'm sure that Fairchild had a bit to do with that. Plus he's been part of some potent offenses in St. Louis; he's coached RBs, so he should understand their importance to the game; and, this is minor, but he's been with the Bills so before, so the transition to a new town/new job won't be as stressful and therefore won't affect his work as much. See who else they bring in, then decide on the best of the bunch because, believe me, you won't see any marquee coordinators in there.

This is of course, if the raiders don't name him their new head coach. They would be stupid not to because he'd rejuvanate that offense once again. I'm hoping Levy is waiting for his contract to run up at the end of the month so he can bring him in for an interview.

Re: Rams will allow Bills to interview Fairchild
Originally posted by KerrI'm still not clear on who's decision it is to pick the offensive coordinator? Mularkey? Or Levy? It seems like Mularkey is choosing to pick his next scapegoat. If I'm going to go for an Offensive Coordinator, it's going to be one that's really good and a possible candidate to replace him as head coach. That is Al Saunders. He's had success at a head coach before with the Chargers in the late 80's a fill in coach. They made the playoffs.
