    I don't know about five minutes but he would go faster than Haynesworth and that was pretty damn fast. Winning a Super Bowl is an entirely different question. I think Jeff would benefit by having a hands off owner. VY may be a great player and prove me wrong yet, make me a fool for losing faith in him but Adams was wrong for mandating that VY be the guy. He should have left it to the the GM and HC. That doesn't give Fisher a free pass by any means but while I think a HC should be able to adapt I also think a HC should have more say in who to take in a draft than the owner.

    Correct me if I'm wrong but to this point no head coach was won a Super Bowl with two different teams.
    I think that says alot about how much the team fit, ownership and pure luck matters. Doesn't hurt to have a Joe Montana or Tom Brady either.
    If Fisher steps into the right scenario for his style of game with a little luck who knows what he could do. Same goes here - The Titans could get Sean Payton and the odds would still be against the team in regard to SB wins.

    That's really very true. There are too many people trying to over simply this for sure.

    Aside from Vince Young, when has Bud Adams interferred?

    And remind you, Fisher would have picked Matt Leinart, who is worse than Vince Young no matter what your opinion of Young is, so I can't really fault Bud Adams for that.

    It doesn't matter. How many playoff games would we have won with Leinart? I can tell you for sure we have won 0 with Vince.

    There was almost no way to win in the '06 first round. Only 2 great players that we could have used were taken at 3 or lower, Ngata and D-Angelo Williams.

    there would have been a bright side to drafting lienart though. by now we would have a new franchise QB and a new HC :ha:

    Probably the same amount as the Cardinals.

    And how do you figure "it doesn't matter"? My point is that if Vince Young is the only time Bud Adams interferred, then you can't use that to excuse Fisher's poor record, because I guarantee you it wouldn't be better with Matt Leinart.

    2nd round - Maurice Jones-Drew

    Our run game was pathetic at the time.

    ... we drafted Lendale White

    If it wasn't for Bud Adams there (1) would be no Tennessee Titans, and (2) we'd not have won a game since 2008. Bud only intervenes when it's absolutely necessary. He made sure Fisher didn't kill us all off by getting Leinart in the draft, then he saved us by making sure Fisher benched Collins.
