Ex-Gophers offensive coordinator Jeff Fisch still learning for the best coaches

ATLANTA – Former Gophers offensive coordinator Jedd Fisch has reached the Super Bowl with a finely-tuned gameday job description that many a disgruntled NFL fan has begged his or her team to hire for as long as overloaded head coaching brains have been known to mismanage precious time at the end of halves.

Thanks to the well-documented youth and fresh-faced innovativeness of 33-year-old head coach Sean McVay, Fisch is the Los Angeles Rams’ “clock-management specialist.” And you can bet that if the Rams beat the Patriots by brilliantly maneuvering through their critical two-minute situations on Sunday, more teams will be looking for another Jedd Fisch to pair with the next McVay that’s now in vogue.
