Jeff Fisher responds to criticism from Rodney Harrison

Poor Jeff Fisher. 

First, Mike Zimmer snubs him, accuses him of being a dirty coach and says if they were in the street there'd have been a fight. Now Rodney Harrison is talking about how dirty Fisher is too, pointing back to a time when one of Fisher's players deliberately injured him and he looked up to see Fisher laughing about it on the sidelines.

(you know it's got to be bad when Rodney Harrison is calling you dirty)

But Fisher of course maintains his innocence. And why shouldn't he? I mean, it's not like he and defensive coordinator Gregg Williams have got anything in their history to indicate that they're dirty, right?

Right?

“I don’t want to say I took things personal, but it was kind of a personal attack on me,” Fisher told reporters on Monday. “I think you have to consider the source. . . . You’re talking about a guy that had a great career. I mean, the guy played a long time. He was hard to defend. He was a really active defensive player. But this is coming from a guy that had 18 unnecessary roughness penalties, seven personal fouls, four roughing the passer penalties, a total of 77 penalties in his career and was voted three times the dirtiest player in the National Football League and was suspended for a hit, a helmet-to-helmet hit on Jerry Rice in 2002. Okay? This is where these comments are coming from. I’ll just say this: Since 2000, it’s been a privilege and honor for me to be on the Competition Committee. Our main focus, as you guys have followed this league for a long time know, our main focus is player safety. So, for Rodney to come out and say that I did something like that is absolutely absurd. So, that’s all I have to say on that.”

Fisher separately was asked whether it bothers him that his teams have been called dirty or chippy.

“I haven’t heard that,” Fisher said. “So, we are going to play fast. We are going to physical and we’re going to play furious and we’re going to play contact football. Okay?”

 

Butthurt Jeff Fisher took the time to look up RH career penalty stats but has not heard that other coaches, players and fans know his teams are coached to play dirty?  #denial

to be fair its common knowledge that Harrison was one of the dirtiest players ever. him knowing the exact # of penalties is suspect though.

lol this scumbag gave Wes Welker an opportunity to turn himself into a vegetable

 

can St Louis just fire him already?

im gonna hold wes welker accountable for his own actions. at this point the dude is gonna have some level of CTE, not sure 1-2 more concussions (if he even gets more) will make much of a difference.

He knows what they say, and he knows what he is. Him claiming "not to hear" is just a dodge.

You don't hire a guy like Gregg Williams and not know what you're getting.

    • Just another 1st round QB that never paid off for the team that drafted them or traded for them. It's been like this since the SB began. 36 QBs have now won the SB & only 13 of them have been 1st rounders winning with their original team. Namath 1968, Griese 1972, Bradshaw 1974, McMahon 1985, Simms 1986, Aikman 1992, Elway 1997, Roethlisberger 2005, P.Manning 2006, E.Manning 2007, Rodgers 2010, Flacco 2012, & Mahomes 2019. Only 3 have taken longer than 5 seasons as the starter to win a SB.  4  6  5  4  6  4  15  2  9  4  3  5  2 [the years it takes for these 1st round QBs] 5  1  4  1  3  1  1  2  3  4  [10 of the 36 have won a chip with their 1st team that haven't been drafted in the 1st round. These are the years it took them as a starter] What stands out? Only 2 of these QBs have lost their first championship appearance. Elway took 4 years as a 1st rounder & Hurts took 2 years as a 2nd rounder. Of the 10 non-1st round QBs, 2 are 2nd rounders, 3 are 3rd rounders, 5 are 6th rounders or later. Please stop wasting time on drafting 1st round QBs with such a high failure rate. The remaining 13 QBs are traded or free agent signings. Stafford, Favre, Young, Williams and Dawson are the 5 trades. Peyton Manning & Tom Brady also won for teams as free agents on a short stay as well as being drafted. The lesson here is don't waste your franchise on farming up 1st rounders for the league, and steer clear of trading for a franchise QB. Stick to finding that championship QB by drafting them outside of the 1st round or through free agency.  
    • I lost most of the respect I had for Fox in 2010. He should have resigned if he hated the job that much. Instead he stuck for his paycheck and let stuff go to hell.    I burned out on Ron too but my deal breaker issue with him was away from football and after he was gone from the Panthers. He may have been out of his depth but never quit on us. 
    • From where they were one year ago to now, pretty incredible. I mean, say what you want about Vrabel he is no Jerrod Mayo.
