KingTitan Posted January 17 Author Share Posted January 17 MacDonald. Glenn. Both DCs. Which fits better would be the question. No matter what, people are going to equal Coordinator success as Head coach success no matter how much evidence shows that isn't the case.

Daniel Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 Glenn might be fine in a vacuum, but his connections are all NO or Detroit as a coach. Maybe he knows some offensive minds from NO that will come in and be good, but who from Detroit, on the offensive side of the ball, is going to follow him? My guess is zero. They’ll all follow Johnson to Washington. So where’s he getting his offensive staff from? If Johnson weren’t the hot hire, he might be a great choice, we could maybe poach the QBs coach in Detroit to come be OC or something like that. Not now.

Also was on the Browns when Shanahan, McDaniels and O'Connell were there on the offensive side. Also don't we want to avoid just hiring his buddies and people he knows?

615finest Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 (edited) It’s Slowik.. if it’s between those 2 it’s gotta be Slowik right lol. Callahan must not have impressed in his interview but again it is early and neither Slowik or Glenn have interviewed Edit: The Titans' interest in Aaron Glenn is a byproduct of them wanting a culture-builder."

That's usually how guys hire though. They don't usually hire a random coach they've never worked with in any capacity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or course that's how normally it goes. But also not always. Just saying if he doesn't have a lot of immediate connections, it could lead to what we wanted Vrabel to do and that is hire outside of his comfort zone and buddy system.

-Hope- Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 the reason i like macdonald despite being a defensive head coach is that he'd actually give us a schematic advantage on that side of the ball. as the tennessee titans we have literally never had that in a head coach, ever. i'm sure aaron glenn could get guys to run through a wall for him but so could mike vrabel, and so could jeff fisher back in his heyday. just feels like this organization will never learn that it takes more than that.

KingTitan Posted January 17 Author Share Posted January 17 Really not one guy I'm totally fine with. Each one gives me some reservation. Just hope it's the right guy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think these young whiz kids lead by their ability to gameplan and show their players they can provide energy through getting the best out of them. Slowik won't be a ra ra guy, but I like the way he carries himself, the way he talks, and how he has an air of confidence and level headedness. If we want something different and to evolve in the building I think we need to go outside our comfort zone. We are in a tough spot because the players still were heavy bought into Vrabel. So you have to find a guy who has the goods. I still read these as early insights and I bet there is a ways to go. We gotta wait till we see some of these guys come in house. I think the only guy I really would hate as a hire would be Quinn. It wouldn't be exciting to me to go defense. But let's be real, I'll figure out a way to get on board with Glenn, or MacDonald. Lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
