Jeff Fisher still won’t make QB change: ‘I thought Case did a nice job’
Los Angeles Rams head coach Jeff Fisher is sticking to his guns at all costs.
After the Rams defeated the New York Jets on Sunday by the final of 9-6 in a battle of offensive ineptitude, Fisher once again reiterated that he will not be making a quarterback change and even offered mild praise for starter Case Keenum’s performance, per Alden Gonzalez of ESPN.
No QB change, Jeff Fisher said. "I'm not placing this on the shoulders of the quarterback. … I thought Case did a nice job."

Keenum completed 17 of 30 passes against the Jets for 165 yards and zero touchdowns. While he miraculously didn’t throw an interception, Keenum has still tossed eight of them over his last five games combined now.
Earlier reports suggested a change could be imminent and even Hollywood has begun lobbying for the QB switch to be made. But nevertheless, Fisher appears to be content with riding Keenum until the wheels fall off (assuming that they somehow haven’t already).
