Malarkey hired to be next Titans coach- per Schefter

[Zero]

Marrone left out in the cold once again. I imagine he has to be second guessing last year's decision to overplay his hand. Pity...

Pretty bad when Mularkey beats you out.

How does Mularkey get a 3rd chance ?

No clue but I just read the Titans and Eagles are Schwartz hunting for DC.

Not us though. We are securing our 17th year without playoffs with Rob "freaking" Ryan. From top 5 defense to bottom 5 in 2 years.

Because it came down to him or Marrone.

Titans fans are displeased btw, in looking at their boards. Very displeased.

"Well, looks like it's between Marrone and a dead Vince Lombardi."
"So, just how dead is Vince?"

I guess we could hire on Sylvia Brown to relay the play calls.

Except she died in 2013 so you'd have to find someone to relay the play calls from her relaying the play calls.

Well, another three years of futility in Tennessee then. Or less if Mularkey decides to quit again.

Comically, the fans are already looking ahead to future HC's after Mularkey.

In the Superbowl era, there have been only 13 people to head coach for 3 or more teams. Mularkey is number 13. His winning percentage is by far the worst for anyone in this group at 31.5%, 2nd worst is Forrest Gregg at about 47%.

Good job, Tennessee.

I can only imagine this job was treated like the Cleveland job a couple years back when Pettine was literally the #14 choice. No one of quality wanted this job, so it came down to these 2 guys ? Wow.

Young QB with promise but the organization seems to be a mess. They've been REALLY down for a while now.

The owner lives in Houston, doesn't talk to the media and seems to be hands off. Maybe Mularkey will get a little space to do what he wants. Maybe he rebuilds the o-line and Mariotta develops. Best case scenario. But like Chan Gailey in Buffalo, his ultimate success will depend on a strong DC and rebuilding that defense to what it was under Fisher/Schwartz.
