you can't make a silk purse out of sow's ear. Nobody can.dont matter what talent walks thru the door zero progression with Vrabel staff - this was proven to be true
Just as it was proven not to matter who the OC was
truth.. but dillard was not 'budget' he got paidyeah but vrabel had to fill the holes with low budget guys due to the cap situation. He was strapped by JRob again. (IMO)
still ... no reason they are not at least below average instead of straight awful
Oh I aint claiming vrable staff wasted tons of talent... I am just saying none of them appeared to get better outside of DL & some LBsyou can't make a silk purse out of sow's ear. Nobody can.
LBs definitely improved, I would hire Vrabel as a LB coach or TE coach. Nothing else.
This feels like history repeating itself- like there was an ultimatum over his staff and Vrabel fought it.I bet AAS told him to clean house and Vrabel declined.
Just like when Robinson took over, the coach lasted another year before a change was made. I think in the bigger picture that the luster of the “Patriot Way” holds much less appeal after what has become of the Patriots and those that were either on that staff or come from that coaching tree. As time goes on, it seems Brady was just as important (if not more-so) in creating that mystique, and was equally responsible for all of the good breaks that came to those who were in that system. Look at all of the failures in the wake of it.
I think it’s time for a fresh outlook, but I hope Carthon is the guy to helm the ship.
media just clutching to "coach of year" 9 years ago like they did with Byard's 1 all pro season 3 decades ago
they're clueless
Ok.. let’s be clear. He was coach of the year 2 years ago. Not 9. It’s not ancient history.
Byard was 1st team All Pro 2 years ago also.
byard .... LOL
Titans have gotten worse and worse-er last 2 years

Most media people will
They don't watch the Titans enough to have a clue what's going on with the team
Do some of y’all really believe these reporters don’t know things because they don’t sit and watch the Titans on Sundays?
TE coach?LBs definitely improved, I would hire Vrabel as a LB coach or TE coach. Nothing else.
That’s been one of the weakest and most disappointing positions under the Vrabel tenure.
Even when Johnnu and Firkser put together a combined season that was pretty good, it’s just been lack of production even when a breakout (Chig) was expected.
Frank Rizzo was one of the Jerky Boys.
for you young bucks, the were prank callers at the best.
"Too complicated." "Too long." Excuses.
Instead of doing what was best for the team, taking the time to actually get a deal in place, they took the easy route.
To then replace him with who? David Culley ?
The more I think about this the more I love it. Even when this team made the AFC championship we were dog shit. Not once since Vrabel has been here have I believed we are a top ten team let alone a Superbowl contender
does tomlin use 80-90 players a year cause he encourages players to sit?
Did Vrabel encourage players to sit?
I've been dreading that this total rebuild thing was coming for over a year. Well it's here. Didn't want it. Can't stop it.
Maybe it will be a quick turnaround. Not likely though.
If they do it right it can be quick
Because she isn’t answering questions at a presser?
Most owners don’t. I’m not sure what standard we are holding Amy to.
If Vrabel was to not get hired as a HC (which I'm sure he will) but what would he get hired as? I don't think he qualifies as a DC, nor would he probably take the demotion.
With all that said, there will be breaking news tomorrow as Bill Belichick is out as the NE HC.

shouldve been last year. could've traded the expiring players for extra picks too.... sighI've been dreading that this total rebuild thing was coming for over a year. Well it's here. Didn't want it. Can't stop it.

he would absolutely be DC, that's what he was before. he won't have to take a demotion though cuz teams are gonna start blowing his phone up.If Vrabel was to not get hired as a HC (which I'm sure he will) but what would he get hired as?
