scine09 Posted January 31, 2024 Report Share Posted January 31, 2024 (edited) 3 hours ago, Face said: I remember we used to tell ourselves that when we’d go nearly a month hearing not a single word on Vrabel’s hunt to make ourselves feel warm & safe……..and then the Friday 5pm Downing/Bowen announcement would hit. All kidding aside Mike Vrabel was easily the least fun offseason coach ever. Obviously it doesn’t matter at all but let’s be honest, it’s kindve fun when your team is looking for a new OC and/or DC. Vrabes took a blowtorch, check that, a thermonuclear missle, to even the slightest bit of fan enjoyment. Vrabel’s problem is he didn’t seem to care about the fans at all in his time with the Titans. What he doesn’t realize is without the fans he’s not a multi millionaire and he would have to get an actual ordinary job.

I don’t have an opinion on the guy to be clear. I don’t labor under the delusion I know shit about these guys outside of their previous jobs like a lot of fans do. prometheus, oldschool, Mythos27, and 1 other 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I don’t think the OC position is as impactful as it would be if Callahan weren’t HC - but overall something like that would be a strong staff with connections to Callahan. Holz is still a relatively weak candidate for OC, but he’d just be there to run Callahan’s offense.

That has happened at times from Munchak through Vrabel with Vin Marino at the contracts helm, so it wouldn't surprise me (esp if the coach is say, currently an unemployed HoF Oilers guard who is media-averse) Yep was just about to say this. From what I remember at the time, they like to announce these types of things all together. Similar to how they don't really leak everyone they signed as UDFA basically until rookie camp starts. I mean, they let us hang on the edge of seats for almost two full days, before FINALLY making the official announcement for BC. tgo, and Justafan 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe its the hopeful part of me, but that makes me think that maybe they are able to lock down Wilson as DC. Rams are moving on to interview Stanley now. Haven't heard anything about the Giants with Wilson recently, but maybe that is because we got our guy already. Also haven't heard about Studesville OC interview either if they did it or not.

Yeah - Miami could have blocked it since it is a non play-calling position Think the Rams will move on Staley soon. titanskick8851 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They aren't blocking it if he wants to take an OC job somewhere. I can't recall Shanny JR or McVay blocking guys from moving around. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BudsOilers Posted February 1, 2024 Report Share Posted February 1, 2024 Also very possible Shanahan blocked those guys because they didn't want to be interviewed/go there but didn't want to be the ones saying no. oldschool 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was about to respond with this. There was a beat reporter for the Skins years ago who said in nearly all cases teams don't block guys who genuinely want to take a job elsewhere. It's usually done at the request of the coach. Of course the counter to that is if everyone knows this why the subterfuge. Another case of we'll never know.
