Popular Post TF_Titan Posted January 9, 2025 Popular Post Report Share Posted January 9, 2025 I think JRob, Vrabel and Carthon were all fired for reasons other than specific football decisions or the product on the field. I'm not saying they all didn't deserve to be fired based on job performance alone, but in all 3 cases it seems to me there were non-football related issues that ultimately led to their demise. I think in the case of JRob and Vrabel they did or said something that pissed Amy off...maybe in Vrabel's case on purpose. In Ran's case I think it was just obvious to everyone (including himself) that he was in way over his head. The bottom line is the Titans are better off with them gone. In the end they may be better off with Callahan and/or Brinker gone too, we'll have to wait and see. oldschool, IsntLifeFunny, smokeater, and 5 others 6 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Oh my gaw, JAG me with a spoon." Yeah ... I always struggle with it and often elect to write it out. I don't have a great solution but it still bothers me when people essentially say "just a just a guy." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also think the Nihill factor always gets overlooked. Robinson is kind of the unknown. I've always suspected the alcohol on the plane incident didn't help him and the pretty obvious window was closing in large part to his decisions as well....and it was pretty apparent he wanted to run it autonomously. No real proof but I think Nihill couldn't stand him (process/analytics guy vs an old school grinder) and likely helped put the daggers in. Brinker is far more compatible with Nihill background/skill set wise in comparison. Vrabel is the one where I think he dumped her as much as she dumped him. Pretty clear his leaks to media and overflowing praise for how NE was compared to other places was a dig.... Carthon's the easiest one to explain. Simply a bad hire who wasn't going to succeed no matter how much you tried to help him. Justafan, and japan 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rarely are ppl fired bc they didn't hit a particular KPI. They are usually fired bc WHY they didn't hit it.. and those reasons are often complicated, relationship related and layered.
