Apparently...Adam Schefter of the Shield's Network is reporting that New York Giants Defensive Coordinator Steve Spagnuolo ((pictured, thanks Bill Kostroun/AP)) will be taking over as head coach of the St. Louis Rams- replacing both Scott Linehan and Jim Haslett.
So much for that letter the players drafted for the front office, eh...?
From Schefter:
"The Rams have given Steve Spagnuolo a four-year, $11.5 million contract to be their next head coach. Spagnuolo has been the Giants' defensive coordinator for the past two seasons and directed a unit that helped lead New York to a 17-14 upset of New England in Super Bowl XLII.
In both of his seasons with the Giants, Spagnulo coordinated a top-10 defense. He was a defensive assistant in Philadelphia prior to his stint in New York.
The Rams have fielded some of the league's worst defenses since former defensive coordinator Lovie Smith left to become the Bears' head coach in 2004 and they hope Spagnuolo will solve those problems.
St. Louis has the second overall pick for the second straight year in the draft and has several young pieces in place, including second-year DE Chris Long, RB Steven Jackson and second-year WR Donnie Avery."
Those of us here at OSG HQ feel Spagnuolo will be paid very well to continue to lead a sub-standard product.
