This offseason is going to be a good test of just how stubborn Vrabel is.

No one watching the Titans defense this year can think having a Vrabel/Bowen led defense is a good idea next season, yes there are some major defensive personnel issues but its incredible how apart from Simmons and Butler basically the entire defense has regressed this year.

 

I really fear for the short term of this franchise if Vrabel refuses to hand over control of this defense to a qualified DC who should be allowed to bring in his own staff, i'm not sure there is a single coach on this defensive staff that deserves to be retained next year.

 

Its absolutely sickening this defense is so bad we are wasting an offense that is good enough to compete with any team in the NFL.

It’ll be only a matter of time when this team goes back to 7-9 8-8 range. Jags will get better, Colts are very well coached. Houston might be the wildcard.

Not doing so should land Vrabel on the hot seat next year. When you hire a def minded HC you expect to have a good defense and staff. I think the coaching stuff sucks personally. Vrabel is great with managing the game but falls short in many other areas. The talent on this offense is being wasted.

And last week Vrabel was a genius.

 

This is such a week to week league.

An actual defensive coordinator better be the first thing they look at after the season ends. I knew this is how it would play out do to the idiotic decision to forgo one. 

 

I think Pees coming back is a definite possibility if Vrabel doesn't pull a Whisenhunt.

Vrabel is a good leader and motivator of men but he isn't a good DC he needs to go back to a CEO type HC role and bring in someone to run the defense.

I think Vrabel is looked upon as a solid coach, among the upper echelon in football. 

 

You haven't liked him since day one.

He is great with in game management but is lack luster everywhere else. The staff is a joke.

How is the staff not a joke? How is he not overly conservative? How is he not overbearing?

The defensive and ST staffs are awful.  The offensive staff is ok.  I think Smith is averageish.  Carter is a good OL coach.  I have nothing bad to say about the WR or RB coaches.

This is typical talk after a loss.  Where were you last week with these opinions?

Bullshit. I've held this opinion all year and have killed Vrabel over not replacing Pees for months. This is not a new development nor is it based on the outcome of today's game.
