japan Report post Posted January 21 34 minutes ago, Former_Fan said: Been down this road before. Convenient in house hires. The dude has never called an NFL play lol. Fully expecting to tank for a top QB prospect next year. I feel like the team is moving further from legitimacy in the AFC South, and the rest of the league. Absolutely not excited by this news, but hey it isn't Robiskie. I assume someone later in this thread filled this guy in on Lafleur? 1 1 freakingeek, and tgo reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I feel better about Arthur being the guy now. Still... the Titans FO needs to work on their MO. Weird ass fuckers. 1 Stranger reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

japan Report post Posted January 21 32 minutes ago, Jonboy said: Last year. Vrabel, Wilks, and LaFleur. I get what you’re saying though. Seems like JRob is decisive and knows what he wants. He knew he wanted Vrabel from the beginning. He brought in Lafleur to see if he would take the OC position. And had to fulfill the Rooney Rule with the hot minority coach at the time. The delay on this could be that he was going to take a long shot on someone he really wanted on the Saints or Chiefs, then went with Smith who they were really high on. Nothing about this seems like it was handled poorly. Other than not keeping the fans in the loop. 1 prometheus reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Titans279 Report post Posted January 21 Yeah, it's kind of annoying we had to wait a few weeks with no real news, but it's not that big of a deal. The worst part is waiting until September before we can even begin to evaluate the decision. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
