Jeff Fisher has funny solution for Rams’ offensive struggles
The Los Angeles Rams are fortunate to be 1-1 on the season when you consider that they have not yet found the end zone a single time. Head coach Jeff Fisher is hoping that changes in Week 3, and he has a unique idea that might help motivate his offense.
On his weekly radio show on ESPN LA 710 Monday, Fisher said he is encouraging players to camp out overnight in the end zone at the Rams’ practice facility.
Fisher calls for Rams offense to have a sleepover in end zone at CLU this week. "It's probably a little extreme" but it just might work.

Yeah, that’ll do it.
After getting throttled 28-0 by the San Francisco 49ers in Week 1, the Rams played tremendous defense against the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday and only needed three field goals to win. That won’t cut it most weeks, and Fisher knows that.
The obvious change everyone is calling for would be for Fisher to bench Case Keenum in favor of rookie quarterback Jared Goff. Despite L.A.’s alarming offensive inefficiency, Fisher doesn’t sound like he is going to do that anytime soon. That could have something to do with what Keyshawn Johnson recently revealed about the Rams drafting Goff at No. 1 overall.
