LOS ANGELES -- Jeff Fisher has been fired Monday by the Los Angeles Rams.
The team's coach since 2012, Fisher compiled a 31-45-1 record with the Rams and oversaw the move from St. Louis to Los Angeles this past offseason.
The lack of success on the field, capped by a 42-14 home rout at the hands of Atlanta on Sunday, spelled the end for Fisher.
Los Angeles is 4-9 this season and has scored a league-low 194 points.
"Making a decision such as this, especially during the season, is one of the most difficult in sports," Rams owner Stan Kroenke said.
"I have great respect for Jeff as a coach, person, father and friend. He has worked tirelessly despite some challenging circumstances. He played an integral role in helping this team make history in returning the NFL to Los Angeles, and we always will be grateful for his commitment and dedication to our organization.

Cardinals: Michael Floyd arrested on DUI, other charges
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Floyd was arrested early Monday on charges of driving under the influence and failure to obey a police officer.
Police say Floyd was found unconscious behind the wheel of his running vehicle at a Scottsdale intersection shortly before 3 a.m. MST.
Police say Floyd also was charged with obstructing a roadway.
Coach Bruce Arians said he was gathering as much information as he can before determining how to respond to the incident. Arians said he had spoken to Floyd and probably would have more information on Wednesday, when the Cardinals resume practice.
