News 4 Sports Director and Rams play-by-play voice Steve Savard said it best on Sports Sunday last night. [hil]Jeff Fisher is about as competitive of a guy as you’re going to find and he doesn’t care if this was just a meaningless preseason game. That one stung.[/hil]
So for all the fans out there who are saying this means nothing and what happens in exhibition play is irrelevant...I disagree with that. Results don’t mean a whole lot in preseason NFL games (I think we all learned this last year when the Rams went a perfect 4-0). But the execution that leads to those results do matter.

More on both of those things in a moment but if nothing else, Fisher certainly had not intention of letting the result of a single preseason game affect his approach to the preseason as a whole and he’s not going to let it bother his team, either.
[hil]“I don’t think there were many tears on the airplane coming home yesterday,” Fisher said, a grin creeping across his face.[/hil] “What you want to see is you want to see them play hard and they did. We’ve got to play better. Believe me, we’re not ready for Detroit yet, and we will get better.”
