Talks a little about Callahan vs Vrabel and how they ran things Also talks about what he's looking for in a new coach, his relationship with Cam, and his personal growth as a leader You can really tell that his view of leadership, preparation, and accountability is shaped through the Vrabel lens, since that’s who he played under for most of his career. That’s not necessarily a bad thing, but it is interesting to see how it affects how he evaluates other leadership styles. The overall takeaway was that Callahan came across as too nice, almost to a fault.

Mike McDaniel Mike Lefleur Brian Daboll Arthur Smith Adam Stenavich Davis Webb Bobby Slowik Chris Forester Darrell Bevell Matt Nagy? (Dont see this one-- maybe he returns to Philly) Who gets to set the offensive foundation for Cam? Yes, anyone whos young you can pencil them in as leaving within the next two years. Ultimately, this may be someone who is a key figure in Ward's transition to a franchise QB. Whoever we bring needs to bring a good QB coach with them (who may eventually become OC) and needs to be a football junkie in the way that Ward is, to feed his curiosity about the game. My assessment of what pairs well for Cam - A coach that continues to enable his natural tendency to hunt big gains but enforces him not turning the ball over (as we saw in the 2nd half of the season) - Gives him freedom to check plays at LOS - Embeds plays that Ward likes as "schedule plays" in the playcall script. RPOs, modified 4-verts, maybe some cheat motion underbelly screens - Practices hurry-up offense. For his development - Needs focus on consistency of stabilizing his base - Work on downfield accuracy and ball placement - Work on blindside ball security

The Titans will have the #4 pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. So many possibilities.

No idea where this nugget fits so thought it might worth starting a thread for all Titans non HC offseason discussion. This was meant to happen last offseason but Sweat never showed up so I hope this year it happens and we don't have a repeat of Sweat turning up for the offseason program out of shape again.

Finally, Callahan is gone. Obviously we won’t start interviews until after the season. But this can be a thread to state preferences and share prospective Head Coach stats and the like

EVERYBODY HAPPY!! Unusual occurrences such as this are the harbinger of good times! We Will Rule the AFC again!

Just for fun Head Coach - Robert Saleh Assistant to the Head Coach - Steve Scarnecchia Offensive Coordinator - Mike McDaniel Pass Game Coordinator - Bobby Slowik Run Game Coordinator - Frank Smith Quarterbacks - Darrell Bevell Asst Quarterbacks - Rob Calabrese AHC/Offensive Line - Mike Munchak Asst Offensive Line - Chris Kuper AHC/Runningbacks - Eric Studesville Tight Ends - Luke Stocker Wide Receivers - Zach Azzanni Defensive Coordinator - Mike Rutenberg Run Game Coordinator - Travis Smith Defensive Line - Aaron Whitecotton Defensive Ends - Ben Bloom Linebackers - KJ Wright Cornerbacks - Tony Oden Safeties - Marquand Manuel Nickelbacks - Nathaniel Willingham Sr Defensive Assistant - Frank Bush Defensive Assistant - Ricky Manning Special Teams Coordinator - John Fassel Assistant Special Teams - Rayna Stewart Special Teams Assistant - Leon Washington

Hybrid/OTTO linebacker who played on the line 50% of the time. About the same size as Kearse was and as athletic. Mocks have him going #2, but if there at 4#, I think he would have much more upside than the Bailey or Bain.

Worth a discussion. Titans played the second best defense in the NFL. Browns played one of the worst defenses in the NFL. Titans gameplan was to run at and underneath 95 until they were stopped. They were never stopped. Browns couldn't get Judkins untracked consistently in the running game. Got down 2 TDs. Had to put the ball in the air. Titans lack of WRs who can get open quickly forces team into a short passing game. Browns with Jeudy and Bond have two guys who can take the top off of a defense - and both Judkins and Sampson are explosive in the short passing game. Titans call a 'not to lose' game every week. I would love Stefanski in Tennessee as our HC despite the Browns record. Ward is handicapped from the start. Wards mechanical flaw is that he will occasionally drop the elbow and still holds the ball too long. Sanders flaws include the ball pat, consistently bailing out from the back of the pocket and holding the ball far too long. This all being said, Sanders played much better than I anticipated he would while Cam played much as we have come to expect. I think they both have NFL QB1 futures. If I had to redraft today, I would still take Ward. Thoughts?

Before they hire a HC and new staff what i want to see is a few things. . First off put me on the Stefanski train and have him bring Schwartz as his DC. I woke love to see Schwartz work with Simmons, Sweat, Gray, Hooker, and Winston HC - Stefanski DC - Schwartz Retain/Extend Peter Skoronski Jeffrey Simmons Release Ridley Cushenberry FA Romeo Doubs - WR 4 yr 44 mil Cade Otton - TE 4 yr 40 mil David Edwards - OG 3yr 30 mil Jaylen Watson - CB 4 yr 60 mil Coby Bryant - CB 3 yr 27 mil Odafe Oweh - EDGE 4 yr 60 mil Draft Trade back with KC from 4 to 9 which would allow us to pick up an extra 2 this year. KC moves up for Jeremiah Love 1) David Bailey - EDGE 2) K.C. Concepcion - WR 2) Will Lee - CB 3) Connor Lew - C 4) Nicholas Singleton - RB 5) Dontay Corleone - DT 5) Jake Endries - TE I would like to see something like this I still probably botched dudes name

Let's discuss the possiblity or probability that they make the wrong decision and we're all disappointed.

It all sucks shit but be nice to not be rich to buy eggs. Religion is cancer in general anyway but no one is worse than white religious nationalists. Nazi cunts.

A thread to share your sleeper players that you like. Guys that will probably go mid to late rounds or UDFA. I’ll start by presenting to you, WR Ted Hurst.

Just trying to get a discussion going on why Callahan's offense was a bad fit for Cam, or was at least not the best fit, and what he needs going forward from a system standpoint. Cam's processing speed, ability to hit tight windows, intermediate accuracy, calm under pressure, and ability to create when structure breaks down seems like it should have fit Callahan's offense to a T. The talent level around Cam didn't help, but at the end of the day Callahan's offense didn't work. Some proof of that was later in the season where the offense started moving the ball with more success. Where did Callahan's scheme and Cam's tendencies deviate the hardest? Was Callahan's system too static/rigid in what it expected of Cam? Did it seek to minimize and squash Cam's tendencies toward creation in favor of efficiency (e.g. hit the simple play, not always look for the dynamic play)? Obviously Cam has a very high football IQ, but he isn't Joe Burrow. And Cam doesn't have Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins to throw to. Is that what it takes to make that Taylor/Callahan offense tick? Generational players? Not that Cam isn't as he's been compared to Mahomes a lot. But take away Chase and Higgins... would Mahomes have as much success in that Taylor/Callahan offense as Burrow? Would Burrow in that scenario? I'm also curious to understand how McDaniel's offense would be suited to Cam since he's who the majority here think the Titans may hire to be the next HC. Is the jist pretty much that Callahan prefered static structure whereas McDaniel welcomes chaos and creation on the fly? Not that McDaniel's offense is backyard ball... there's structure to his offense too. But he utilizes motion a lot more than Callahan's did. I've seen it described as "weaponizing" motion. Long story short, what does Cam need moving forward schematically? It's a nice thought that Cam could make any offense work, but what kind of offense would best allow him to work?

Great to see both of them earn first team All Pro Selection

From a Facebook Houston Oilers fan page: Big Dean Steinkuhler. If not for those knees, this country boy woulda been a perennial All-Pro Alonzo Highsmith replied “No doubt knees got the both of us.”

What do you all think about Micah Parsons requesting a trade? Personally, I think he'll remain in Dallas, but I'm intrigued by the idea of acquiring him, especially given his age and the presence of a rookie QB. D-Line would be fun to watch!! Any thoughts on what it might take to make that happen?

That’s All!

Starting to sound like this new stadium is actually going to happen with planning and financial discussions picking up pace.

He might as well be a bonus draft pick, so I’m giving him his own thread https://www.nfldraftbuzz.com/Player/Xavier-Restrepo-WR-Miami
