A source close to Jeff Fisher insisted delay in choosing bw MIA and STL is not a leverage play and neither side has yet to make an offer.

I find it hard to believe nobody made an offer if I'm reading this right.
PSGForum VeteranThat would fly in the face of reports that Ross has offered 8 million and title VP.
schmoliootSupporterI am calling BS on this.
If this is what Fisher is peddling I'm starting to buy the spec that he was merely holding out until something he liked better (ahem, Colts) came open.
The report is basically "Don't blame me, nobody's offered me a job"
MonstBlitzForum VeteranAt this point I'm saying **** Jeff Fisher and his mustache.

Source said Jeff Fisher is making sure he has ideal situation. "This is not about money, not about negotiating. This is about winning."
schmoliootSupporterMore Schefter: Source said Fisher is making sure he has ideal situation. "This is not about money, not about negotiating. This is abotu winning."
He doesn't want either of these jobs fellas.
PandarillaForum VeteranWho the hell is gonna come out and say "yes, he's totally leveraging the sheit out of both of them"?

He wants the Colts job and that's what he's waiting for. I'd bet my retirement account on it.

Sure seems that way doesn't it?
BumrushSupporterWho wouldn't want the Colts job?
Do you think if Phil Jackson could do it all over again, he would try to prove his worth by coaching the Clippers over the Lakers??
No coach in their right mind would walk from an Indy offer given what's ahead of them.. Especially with Matt Moore as the latest QB of the future.

Larry LittleSupporterI don't think it's smart to read anything into this situation. I'd like to stick to the facts.
Understanding that... if Indy jumps in at the last minute and hires Fisher, that might just take every ounce of wind out of my sails. I'm getting tired of watching this franchise repeatedly fail.

I don't find it hard to believe at all. Money is not the issue here. Either guy will pay Fisher at or near the top of the scale. The issue here has to be either that Fisher truly hasn't decided yet or that he's talking still with both sides about other particulars (how many coaches and trainers he can have, the GM situation, etc), not money. Fisher is in a position to name his price, so that's not the issue. Once Fisher agrees to go with either side, the money part will be simple...

That is my only fear...although Schefter is saying that's not going to happen. That Fisher will decide on either Mia or StL....

I'm no English major, but that means both sides have made offers. :lol:

AquafinNew Memberwould it be hypocritical of me to say that the longer this goes on the less chance that fisher choses Miami as his destination ? and i am starting to cool on Fisher. and you know i have stuck to my guns on my favorite coach choices. maybe Ross need to fire Ireland and stop listening to Peterson . I am almost ready for Ross to sell the team to a football guru.

Almost?

Fisher sources statement Not about $, not about negotiating, this is about Winning. Yes winning is what it's all about. So choose a team!
Hmm, if it is about winning, and solely about winning, Miami should be the choice.
Sounds like Schefter, Glazer etc are falling in line with the Mike Silver report. Marvin Demoff's reputation for being tight lipped is certainly well deserved, it's pretty impressive how some very accomplished nfl news folks are coming up completely empty.
I'm kinda over this personally, don't mind if we get Fisher, Zimmer, or even Chudzinski if we interview after losing out on Fisher. Biggest news for me was Mularkey being taken off the market. That made me :yahoo:

Tannehill could have had more time had Clabo just fell down and forced Mario to step over him.
It's also possible that Fisher has asked for some organisational changes and it's actually him waiting for a response from Ross and co., not the other way around.
