    Let's hire Marvin Lewis and Anthony Lynn. At least that way when they leave to become a head coach, we at least get draft picks for them.

    At this point, any decision would not be considered a “rush”.

    I honestly don’t know all the possible candidates out there, nor do I have the time or care to do the research to evaluate them all. But I just read an article that listed close to 10 for DC. My point was the well is far from dry. There are a lot of options and we are certainly going to sign a DC that is at least on paper is capable. The “why haven’t we signed one yet” line is largely driven by fan impatience, and not a realistic fear that all the good candidates will be taken...because they won’t be.

    I will say on OC, I like Anthony Lynn a lot. Would love to bring him on board. I don’t want to hire from within and I would love to bring someone in who is more creative than what we have seen.

    I definitely don't like the idea of hiring within either, young, creative and someone rising up would be good. Be nice to have them for more than one year at a time as well. On O and D

    I don’t think the Titans will bring in a DC because anyone who is of any quality will know this defense is Vrabel’s. It’s a career killer. That’s why it’ll be an internal hire, IMO.

    Been down this road already. If we haven't hired anyone by now, most likely it will be a repeat from last year. It will be 2 coaches from within the organization calling the plays, but they won't have the official title of OC/DC. Like Vrabel said himself, he didn't think it was a big deal to give titles.

    It is interesting that they have reached out to Austin and Elliott. So one on each side of the ball. Not sure why they would do that except that both are African American and with league scrutiny so high on minority hires they may have felt compelled to do so.

    I don’t disagree, but what’s the point in not announcing that now if that is the intention.
