EARTH CITY, Mo. -- Moments after his defense had held an opponent to just six points for the second consecutive week, St. Louis Rams coach Jeff Fisher told them that the six points-per-game average isn't good enough. Seriously.
“I told the guys inside, ‘12 points in two weeks is too many,’" Fisher said. "That’s the approach you have to take. We got off the field on fourth down a couple of drives and once they get down there, we’re stressing field goals, field goals, field goals."
But to hear Fisher's players tell it after the game, even those field goals are unacceptable.
