I hope Vrabel's 2 year policy doesn't really apply in this case. Downing wasn't an outside new hire. He was already on staff and just promoted. tgo 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AussieTitanFan08 Posted January 24, 2022 Report Share Posted January 24, 2022 Vrabel basically just confirmed Downing will be back next season. Thrill, tgo, titanskick8851, and 1 other 1 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tgo Posted January 24, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2022 Sigh, Well alright. If Vrabel believes in him, then all I can do is root for him to succeed and improve. I hope that a lot of the offensive woes can be chalked up to injuries/missed time/etc. titanskick8851, and Justafan 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still wonder how much control Robinson has over the coaching staff these days, officially - since he got the EVP title after the Mularkey situation. I know, traditionally, HC's have the final say on staff contractually - but Robinson does have an inordinate amount of control in our org. titanskick8851, and Thrill 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watching the presser I didn't get the impression Downing was going to lose his job, Vrabel used words to the effect of looking forward to working with him next season.

Yeah, I think the staff changes will be elsewhere. TE coach to make room for Kelly? QB coach bc of Tannehill's regression? WR coach because Vrabel and Moore had hinted that he was in charge of "load management" and all that, which didn't seem to go well. titanskick8851, and Thrill 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep goal should be getting Kelly and Pep Hamilton on staff. Improve the offensive coaching and development. If Downing stumbles out the games, promote Kelly. Echoing @Jamalisms, they need to fire Auckerman as ST Coordinator. The group was bad this weekend, been awful all year, and has been bad for multiple seasons. milksteak, and tgo 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is well worth a 5th round pick. I was going to mention this yesterday but forgot. Considering how often 5-7th rounders pan out, why not take a flyer on a top flight college Kicker in later rounds?
