    a good first start of the cleanup. Definitely the new Hires need to come from outside of organization but the OC position needs to be a young and hungry person (no more retreads or patchovers) with a mindset of pass setup the run- Titan fans are beyond tired with predictable pedestrian offense that leads to more balls Kicked than caught-this has been going on for over 20 years and really needs to stop.

    Focus on offensive and being dynamic vs 3 and out High School playbook which Titan Fans have had to watch for decades now.

    I seem to remember there being some chatter that Vrabel was thinking of firing, or at least demoting, LaFluer prior to him being announced as the head coach of the Packers. From what I remember, it seemed like there was tension between the two.

    It thought J.Rob forced Vrabel to bring LaFleur on as the OC since he wanted to hire both of them during the HC interviews. At least, that's how I recall things going.

    Not sure about that, I don’t remember hearing about a possible demotion. But I do remember not being very impressed by LeFluer. I think Art did a much better job at OC.

    I mean, we were actually explosive for the first I can remember. We ended up #2 offense in 2020. It was defense that was garbage that year.

    Seems like Vrabel likes to hire staff that are yes people..."below him" as it makes him feel smarter I guess

    The source was Taylor Lewan. He got the news LIVE while doing a podcast and said all of this.

    He was joking with Downing about playing TE for him next year. Downing said, oh you're going to play for X highschool? Lmao. Just shows that he knows he's terrible and won't get another job as OC in the NFL.
