There have been 21 head coaches in the history of the St. Louis Rams American football franchise. The St. Louis Rams are a professional football team based in St. Louis, Missouri.

[cite web|author=|title=St. Louis Rams|year=|publisher=NFL|accessdate=2008-10-03|url=http://www.nfl.com/teams/st.louisrams/profile?team=STL] Damon Wetzel became the first head coach of the Cleveland Rams in 1936, serving for only one season before he was replaced with Hugo Bezdek. The current coach is Jim Haslett, who replaced Scott Linehan before him.

The Rams began playing in 1936 in Cleveland, Ohio. The NFL considers the franchise as a second incarnation of the previous Cleveland Rams team that was a charter member of the second American Football League. Although the NFL granted membership to the same owner, the NFL considers it a separate entity since only four of the players (William "Bud" Cooper, Harry "The Horse" Mattos, Stan Pincura, and Mike Sebastian) and none of the team's management joined the new NFL team.
