Titans Head Coach Search 2026 (Working on deal with Saleh)

[AvgJoe]

Easton is just so unlikable to me. You really think Saleh would turn down this job and a real offer to maybe get an interview in Buffalo?

I feel like the GM in Buffalo was a bigger issue than McDermott. I wonder if he gets the axe too.

 

Beane right? it will be funny if they elevate Brady to HC. One of the biggest myth's the past few years is that firing Dorsey for Brady led to a more efficient Bills offense.

I promise you right now his agent has already contacted the Bills to see if there is legit interest in Saleh. If so, he'd be crazy not to listen

I guess Kincaid and cook were good. Trying to think of others

I think they are just going to promote Joe Brady in the end

Yeah. He drafted Allen, but after that it seems he hasn’t had a ton of good picks. A handful of guys that are solid. But a lot of misses.

maybe. TBH I would imagine they would go the OFF route after 9 years with a DEF guy at the helm. Whether you agree or not, teams and orgs in general tend to go the opposite route of the one they were on

 

old CIO "we should outsource everything we can"

new CIO "we are going to shift and insource whatever we can"

 

Same is true in sports a lot of the time.

Who would've ever thought that the Bills, Steelers, and Ravens HC jobs would be open in the same off-season.

In the tense Saturday hours before Harbaugh reached his five-year agreement for $100 millionplus lucrative bonuses, his agent, Bryan Harlan, was still communicating with the Titans, who were still interested in hiring his client.

Harbaugh’s done deal with the Giants was not done. And the Titans weren’t the only NFL team ready to pounce if the unimaginable happened and the whole thing fell apart.

 

Executives around the league wondered if the delay in finalizing a contract meant there was a problem brewing between the Giants and Harbaugh. Harlan wouldn’t have been doing his job and protecting his client if he didn’t keep talking to the Titans, just as the Giants wouldn’t have been protecting themselves if they didn’t keep alternative candidates warm in the bullpen.

This is going to be a major bullet dodged

Didn't see that one coming.

 

 

It was as likely as the Ravens and Steelers jobs... they had to show that they were not at an impasse. I thought it was very likely-- the question is what type of coach do they want? They are in their championship window like Baltimore

Is this town Salt Lake City or New Orleans???

smack dab in the middle

I always thought McDermott being fired with a loss was more likely than LaFleur not being extended. 

 

I bet Daboll ends up the HC there in Buffalo.

That's my initial assumption as well and that was speculated by Breer earlier this morning prior to the actual firing
