The Official Tennessee Titans thread IV

I'm officially out on AAS. If you're going to fire your GM you let GM pick his coach. Now you have pigeon holed yourself with candidates. Now you cannot cast a wide net. You can only get the guys that are comfortable signing on to a guy they may not have even selected.

Stupid move by AAS. I can no longer defend her leadership of the franchise.

I was out on her when she fired Vrabel and then came up with a OC in name only nepo baby first time head coach

You're not going to get back what he's worth to this team...... No reason to trade Simmons. But I agree on trading back.

You were the worst team in football with him....

You will be in his age 30 season before you have a chance to realistically win a playoff game...

The Panthers turned down 2 1sts and a 2nd for Brian Burns, who isnt the player Simmons is. If you get that kinda offer....

I don't see getting that for Simmons, but I'd take it.
 
Vrabel deserved to be fired. I'm ok with Callahan as that hire. Wasn't considered a bad hire.

But decisions like these give me no confidence in her.

One can think Vrabel deserved to be fired, but a firing means a hiring.... Based on the current available options, there was no one that came close to Vrabel's caliber.... Like it was pretty certain known that Ben Johnson wasn't leaving Detroit.... So when you know there won't be good pool of guys to pick from, you have to weigh riding another year with a coach you don't like as an owner, but the locker room loves or roll the dice....

Adams fired the second best coach the Titans have had this century and went all in on a OC in title only from Cincy with a GM who has no business holding a GM job anywhere in the league....

She made the wrong decision. To me that was evident the first 3 games of the season when the Titans committed so many mental and special teams mistakes.... Vrabel might have been old school but discipline wasn't a big issue with him.

Again the optics are terrible.

If Amy hires this guy, who is at least partially responsible for the failures of the former GM, read his list of responsibilities and what he attributed to himself in his bio.............. In other words, Amy was so worried and discouraged about the direction the franchise was headed, she hires the guy that was number 2, if not 1-B responsible for that direction???????? Make it make sense!


And after reading that release again why would any decent GM want to come in if he doesn't have any control of the single most important thing that determines his job security........ Again, please make this make sense!
I'll make it make sense for you. The owner is the primary problem. The stench starts there and permeates downward through the organization.

I liked Vrabel fine. And SOME players liked him. He was extremely polarizing. Some players lived him, others hated him. I will say this, I know from good authority, some people in the building, that he hurt us as well, some players, free agents, would not entertain the thought of playing for him.

He played favorites and was unprofessional.
 
How did it work out for them with an O-line comprised of 4 OT's? How about a wannbe QB with obvious weaknesses in reading coverages and decision making to go with being an egomaniac in the SEC? Or going with separate joker and separate blocking TE's that telegraph the plays? Or guessing who the #2 WR is with a whopping 39 or 32 catches?

That offense has been offensive going back to Vrabel, which was only reasonable because of King Henry after Brown left.
