Vrabel out as HC of the Titans

That's what happens when you put a box in charge.

I'D hire him in a heartbeat myself, but thats just me.

Fall guy.

It was kind of strange. I randomly was listening to a Vrabel press conference, maybe Patrick or Rome played it, I'm not sure. But he just sounded so down in the dumps. Almost like he knew this was coming.

Move over BB……

 

[packerzrule]

He'd be a great hire for any team looking for a HC.

I’m stunned Vrabel was fired, he’s a good coach IMO, the Titans struggles the last 2 years were mainly because of their issues at QB. Vrabel is a good coach and I’m sure he’ll be hired somewhere.

pretty good coach,ne should hire him

The sentiment from the talking heads on sports radio is that the Titans made a massive mistake in firing Vrabel. I can't disagree. I have to wonder why this decision was made. It's not the team suffered for bad coaching decisions. It was more like poor front office work that left them short of talent at key positions (trading away Brown, the issues at QB, etc)

I think it went something like this

"All you fuckheads ruined this team, I'm going back to new England."

Once Mike left they mumbled "OK, you're fired"

The Pack coach worked with him at TN in my dreams Vrabel would be the next Packers D coordinator but he will get a head coaching position

Yep unfairly fired but someone has to be the fall guy.

I would say Atlanta should I hire him but I don't think the fit is there. I think Atlanta would benefit with an offensive-minded head coach that knows how to use all those weapons Arthur refused to use in the best way. Atlanta also needs a QB

 

[mrschaney]

I would have to think that Vrabel is one of the top 5 coaches in the NFL that everyone would want? Maybe top 3?
I don't get this!

See the OP.

Wife told me that because of him coming to Foxboro last week (he is now in the Pat's hall of fame) and saying nice things about about them pissed off his bosses.

I don't know if there is any truth to it.

Seems unlikely. Everyone knew his Patriots history before the Titans hired him. I understand the Titans decision to move on. The QBs look wrong, the RB is moving on, and they've had 2 losing years. Time for a reset. I disagree with firing Vrabel, but I understand it.

From what I heard him and the first year GM were butting heads and Bud Adams daughter Amy decided on cutting ties with Vrabel in a quick manner ,to interview best possible candidates, before they taken elsewhere, instead of waiting and trading him

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

He will probably be the hottest commodity out there. As much or more as Harbaugh or any of the young coordinators. Good luck to him. If he's smart, however, he won't take the Pats job even if BB steps down. That roster is really bad. Yeah, they will have that high pick on a QB but there are a ton of holes to fill and no guarantee the QB pans out.

Yeah, bout the same chance Jim Harbaugh becomes an OC lol
