I hope he doesn't end up in New England... Is it? They've gone nowhere for years, though the timing is odd with Levis though he wasn't a 1st round pick.

HomeskillitMoorman Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 You just have to swing at and invest in a top talent at QB. I think he’s a good coach that just dicked around entirely too much with the most important position on the team. 35 minutes ago, Gregg said: Vrabel will be unemployed for about 5 minutes. Probably will be the Pats next HC but if not, he will get one of the other HC openings. Ugh that’s gonna be annoying to have him on the Pats 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'd be interesting to see him in New England. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wouldn’t shock me at all if he stays and said screw this I’ll do it again. There are diagnosis codes for that sort of thing. 6 minutes ago, JerseyBills said: Vrabel is a poor mans Sean Mcdermott, still a really good coach Next coach of the Patriots.

Mr. WEO Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 41 minutes ago, 4merper4mer said: Well the “hot seat” is defined by one person…..the team owner…..so if said team owner can convince other owners that either: 1. He is willing to keep Vrabel or 2. More than one team is interested…..creating a supply/demand issue then they might be able to get a little something. I’d imagine your reply to the above might be some sort of caustic dressing down/implication I just don’t understand. Spare me with that if you would and explain what it costs Tennessee do give it a try. All I can see as a possible cost would be a slight delay to their own search for a coach. obviously the Titans team owner put the guy on the hot seat--he just canned him. It was hardly shocking. equally obvious other owners understood this was likely so none made a trade inquiry or obviously the Titans owner would have taken something over nothing. no need to dress down--just pointing out the obvious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I absolutely hope the Pats hire Vrabel as HC over BOB as they get ready to draft their QB of the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warcodered Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 48 minutes ago, HappyDays said: Sounds like the Titans have a big ownership problem too. That sounds so stupid, like we couldn't be bothered to help our team be better so we just fired him instead. 32 minutes ago, DrDawkinstein said: It's a very long way of not directly saying "I like our GM more than our Coach and one had to go" Which when you combine with that statement of trading him being too complicated is hilarious. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. WEO Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 44 minutes ago, HappyDays said: Yeah he toed the company line. But they showed him in the draft room when the trade went down and he clearly was not happy. You know better than this. I didn't read the body language because I didn't see it. that trade didn't sink his or his team's fortunes. it was the inability to have a quality QB. AJ Brown is wasted on Tannehill/Levis.

Doc Brown Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 1 hour ago, Patrick Duffy said: Not that you guys are wrong regarding your post to this subject, however, I'd point out that A.Pierce made a fairly strong case for himself and I could easily see him getting the chance with full offseason etc to get the job with the quick turn around that team did from a messy situation. Harbaugh has the better resume. McDaniels never proved himself as a head coach at any level for those that are comparing the same situation to him and Biscotti. Pierce could very well be their last resort if they can't catch the big fish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cant stand any of the Adams after that low class Bud Adams flipped off the Bills and Bills fans after a game. Money cant buy class.

BRH Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 (edited) Serious question: is Brian Daboll the only member of the Belichick coaching tree still running an NFL team? Absolutely putrid legacy if true. And Daboll has had other influences and was never a coordinator (or, obviously, player) under Belichick. Edited January 9 by BRH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDawkinstein Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 (edited) 3 minutes ago, Matt_In_NH said: What is the backstory here? Bud Adams is a classless scumbag who liked beating the Bills after our Oilers Comeback game and Music City Forward Pass. Nothing more to it than rivalry and an owner who cant rise above it. And in this particular game the Titans blew us out so he was being a gracious winner and host and rubbing it in.
