The St. Louis Rams have fired coach Scott Linehan. Defensive coordinator Jim Haslett will take over.
Let's face it, he's a solid offensive coordinator, but he sucks as a head coach. This team certainly has problems and holes, but they weren't close to playing up to their potential. This has been one of the worst teams in football since the start of 2007.
Fantasy Impact: New head coach Jim Haslett has re-installed Marc Bulger as the starting QB. I have no idea if HC Linehan and OC Al Saunders got along or not, and being that they're both offensive-minded, it's possible they clashed on philosophies. With Saunders fully in charge of the offense now (Haslett is a defensive coach), I expect to see improvement in all areas on offense, although expecting immediate improvement is probably a bit overly optimistic.
