AP Pro32 comments about Rams

NEW YORK (AP) Comments on the St. Louis Rams by the AP Pro32 panel (ranking in parentheses):

Chris Berman (ESPN, 20) - Clutch late road win leaves door open.

Clifton Brown (Sporting News, 19) - Jeff Fisher is showing why he was so coveted during offseason.

Cris Collinsworth (NBC Sports, 17)

Rich Gannon (CBS Sports/SiriusXM NFL Radio, 23) - This is a team that will carry late season momentum into next year and be a factor in the division.

Bob Glauber (Newsday, 17) - Jeff Fisher probably won't win Coach of the Year honors, but he has done a sensational job getting this Rams team competitive this quickly. He has already tripled last year's win total.

Rick Gosselin (Dallas Morning News, 17) - The Rams are 4-0-1 in division play in the NFC West this season, which bodes well for the future.

Clark Judge (CBSSports.com, 17) - Have no fear, St. Louis; you'll get your return on the RG3 deal soon enough.

Ira Kaufman (Tampa Tribune, 17) - Young team hanging around the fringes of the NFC playoff picture.

Pat Kirwan (SiriusXM NFL Radio/CBSSports.com, 18) - Jeff Fisher should be in the discussion for coach of the year. His young team is 3-1-1 in the last four games and they have only given up 42 points in the last three weeks.

John Lynch (Fox Sports, 17) - Jeff Fisher has done a masterful job with this team!

Alex Marvez (Foxsports.com, 17) - Thanks to a surging defense, the Rams remain alive in the playoff race.

Dan Pompei (Chicago Tribune, 17) - It's not saying much, but this is the best Rams team that St. Louis has seen in quite some time.
