Ricky Posted February 22, 2018 Report Share Posted February 22, 2018 Funny thing was when things were going right it was always me and John are doing this or me and John agree on this, but when things were not good blame it in the players. Or blame it on injuries. The guy had a 8-8 or 9-7! Ceiling because he was happy with that. JRob and AAS want a championship. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
titanruss Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 mularkey hasnt said anything because he had nothing to say that would vindicate him or sound good. his whole argument is he made the playoffs and that should be good enough. it was his career coaching highlight.. he'd never been that far. he was satisfied with that.

I believe like most have stated, he didn't even want to hire him in the first place. He was hired after Mularkey. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But because yall dislike him, yall find reasons to nitpick and ridicule him. My question is, if Mariota doesn't show growth this year and we fail to make the playoffs, is Vrabel gone? I doubt it.... theres goals and theres the big picture. if youve got goals when you are young and they look something like.. marry a hottie, make 150k a year, live in morocco...you achieve those and you think you made it yeah? but in reality... youre trying to buy your way out of a Moroccan prison by being a guinea pig for the pharmaceutical market making your 150k in moroccan dirham - not USD - and your hottie wife you bought on the internet is fucking the entire north side of africa and has never visited you. did you achieve your goals? mularkey was a shit coach and refused to change. it was obvious from day one that all the team needed was a guy to not completely fuck up mariota while JRob built the team. Mularkey nearly... and jury is still out on this.. fucked up the QB irreparably. hard to argue almost any coach doesnt get the same results at minimum.

This is pretty much it. And I think J-Rob probably knew this fairly early. I'm not sure ANYONE in these forums believed Mularkey was capable of winning Super Bowls and dominating the coaching ranks for years. Mularkey's idea and philosophy was great with a young Titans team was a great foundation. His style would work with a young squad as it takes less risks, teaches accountability and lowers mistakes. Three things young players tend to fail at early in the NFL. After having a coach (Whiz) with concepts and ideas better suited for NFL veterans, having a back to basics coach was a good idea for the young Titans. That's all I knew. And thought for the short-term he had a good plan. What he did after that plan's success was the question. We look at the NFL too much based on reaching "Z" before going through "A, B, C, D ... etc." Everyone wants everything right now. It doesn't work that way. Sometimes you need a coach to right the ship, then you have a coach who brings you to the next level. You don't ignore a coach to right the ship just because you don't see him around for 10 years. Just like you don't ignore a stop-gap QB to right the ship just because he's not a super star. The main issue with the Mularkey process was the hiring process itself ... that's it.

big2033 Posted February 26, 2018 Report Share Posted February 26, 2018 In terms of his silence ... I think he's still trying to figure out how he went wrong and what he could've done differently without changing his overall philosophy. It's going to take a while for him to figure that out.

Well, he explained after the Jags job what he learned and how it changed him. I think he believed he finally figured it out ... so yeah I think he's doing some soul searching on whether or not there's something wrong with his coaching methods. Whether his style would've worked if he stayed the course, or if he needs to expand on it. Whether the NFL has passed him, or whether there's a place for what he does well. He probably won't know until he sees the Titans in action again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricky Posted February 26, 2018 Report Share Posted February 26, 2018 After watching second halt of playoff win over chiefs he should have seen whAt was working.but getting away from it in patriots game, he needed to be fired. He got vote of confidence from AAS and then basically threw it in their face. He was not going to be let go if changes were made. But his fit after chiefs game and his season end presser sealed the deal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
titansfb Posted February 26, 2018 Report Share Posted February 26, 2018 If the titans or Mariota underperform next year, he’ll be talking to media all day errrday. For now, it’s smart to stfu. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
