    Haha yeah - cherry picked and embellished. It's the offseason though. Once VY is released this room will really be dead.

    Since I refuse to wade through 16 pages of GoTitans.com forum member ignorance forgive me if I repeat what another sane poster may have already said.

    What's wrong with this staff? Do you expect each coach hired to somehow be the best at his position? Or for us to be able to hire a former head coach to each position coach spot? Or is this a case of "i've never heard of him so he must suck!"?

    Our best hire so far has been our DC.

    He coached several very good defenses in Buffalo. IIRC one year they were the top D. He was our former DB coach during a time that we had the #1 pass defense.

    Chris Palmer is not going to be a long term guy. He's a good QB developer. That's what he is going to be here for. To help develop our drafted QB learn the ropes of the NFL. And by the way he isn't a horrible coach. He had good offenses when he was the Jags OC. The problem with his career in coaching has been his attachment to expansion teams (The new version of the Browns, the Jags, and the Texans) which isn't going to be good for your w/l record seeing as you are starting from scratch.

    Bruce Matthews is a suspect hire IMO. He got by a lot on talent more so than technique. He is one of if not THE most unproven of our hires along with Ragone as a WR coach. But at this point we have at least 3 coaches that specialized on the OL so we have no reason to not do much better there this season.


    Tracy Rocker as the DL coach is going to be a great addition to our staff.

    We were not going to get high profile coaches to come to TN seeing as we do not have a QB at this point.

    No matter what our coaches do next year (good or bad) if we don't have a QB then we aren't going to be winning many games anyway. We are in a rebuilding stage so if you have expectations of playoffs next year then you are delusional and not in touch with reality.

    Stop with all this Chicken Little BS.

    P.S. If anyone thinks that VY is gone because of the incident with Fisher is a moron. VY is going to be cut because of his lack of work ethic, lack of professionalism, and his immaturity. Not to mention his sense of entitlement and his "can't tell me nuthin" attitude. He deserves every bit of criticism he receives since he hasn't dedicated himself to them game and still tries to get by on athleticism alone.

    If you're referring to my post then what specific point are you saying is "not true".

    If you are referring to the VY statement then you need to get your head out of your rearend and realize that is very much the truth.

    i didnt read all, but:


    you mentioned Chilly, fine...what other higher profile coaches were available? you named 1

    and if i recall, alot of the guys they wanted to speak to, they couldnt get permission to do so


    im just glad they didnt wait....alot of ppl said they should just wait, well why?.....so they have less time to build a team?....im glad they got the crap done and are concentrating on moving on....the guys they signed may not be the sexiest names, but i have faith that Munch atleast picked the "best" guys out of the leftovers coaching pool


    and for people to say, im not watchin the Titans blah blah....good, your not a true fan anyway, go hop on some other bandwagon


    i figure if im still a fan i will always be a fan, i been through it all with the Oilers/titans....this doesnt even compare to the Cody Carlson fiasco....not yet atleast, until we see who out QB gonna be lol...hell even Chris Chandler and billy jo tolliver


    u cant predict whats gonna happen, if they do crappy, so be it, start from scratch again


    the thing you should be worried about is this years draft, i dont care what anyone says, i think Fisher drafts were always horrible, our early picks are usually wastes, except for a few exceptions.....the only thing Fisher did good was find late round gold......and this draft could make or break next year easy

    I'll be impressed with this staff if they retain Vince Young due to the CBA and the lack of options on the market. Sometimes its better to just change course rather than throw away your season over a previous coach's decision who isn't even there anymore.

    Munch and Vince have reportedly been on good terms. VY is better than all the QB options available at this
    time.

    No Flynn. No Orton. No Palmer. Kolb is speculated to stay and would cost a 1st or 2nd round draft pick and the draft is nearing.

    We've got the pieces in place to be an elite team. If we keep VY for another year we don't tear apart our offensive unit and we can focus on our defensive issues.

    As far as the hires haven't been the most prolific, but I believe Munch's group will be a good unit. Sometimes a good collective unit is better than any 1 good coach.

    amen, i rather draft a qb with 1 or 2 than trade it away for Kolb or Palmer.....we can just sign frickin marc bulger or someone and draft the future QB....i admit this class isnt anything to get excited about, but neither is kolb or palmer


    as for VY i kinda agree, he has made the titans look silly at times and if we kept him, and the antics kept up, it would just make the organization look bad, especially since they already "annouced" he will be cut or traded.....but i do agree on 1 thing, he is better than almost every option out there

    I don't think it would look bad on the organization. He was supposed to be trade bait but with all thats going on, the QB market is extremely small. It would be more like...we put him on ebay. We didn't get what we want so we're buying a replacement and keeping this one for another year.

    I never heard of Vince having respect issues with any of the coaches so I don't see why it would be so hard for everybody to work together.

    This off-season has been pretty entertaining.

    Vegas isn't impressed with this coaching staff at all. I've heard some futures giving us a 4 win season.
