According to two Jacksonville sources, there are many closed-door meetings happening over the last two days in the football offices and none of them have anything to do with the Titans. Stay tuned. This might get ugly.
 

It'd be too soon to fire him, but that's never stopped stuff from happening before.

I think people are missing the point as to why "high level meetings" may be taking place regarding Urban. I'm sure Khan wouldn't care if Urban banged out every chick east of the Mississippi if the Jags were 3-1 or 4-0.

The problem is the Jags just got their ass kicked in a winnable TNF game and Urban sent the team home while he stayed in Ohio to get loaded at a bar with his blonde groupie. As an owner, that would show me he doesn't give a fug about the team or franchise. He should've been on the plane back to Jacksonville with the rest of the team. It has nothing to do with morals and all that crap.

Isn’t all that tied in with the character stuff?  That creature has more baggage than I had on my first extended trip back in the 70s when I took everything I owned.  A hellava lot.

Obviously a lot of that goes hand in hand. But winning is king in sports. If you win you can get away with a ton of stuff you can't get away with if you're losing.

Lane Kiffin is a good example. He's as slimy as they come, spotted in bars with college chicks all the time, etc. But he seems to be doing a good job turning Ole Miss around so the rest gets swept under the rug. You have to go full on Rick Pitino to get fired when you're a winner.

Ownership might have a light talking to about his behavior if he'd won any games or had a team that was showing real growth or potential... But you're right. When you aren't winning, everything else matters more.

Lane also got left on the tarmac at LAX, Sarkisian fired after a drunken, exploitive rant (I was there) at an alumni function.

    • By all indications, the surgery was "minor." I know with all surgeries and especially back surgery there can be complications, but I think the whole time Tremble did this with the expectation he would be able to be back for Week 1 It sounds like he will be ready to start back in team drills next week. He's a veteran who knows the system so I'm sure that helps. I still can't imagine he will play a normal workload early on though 
    • Maybe. He was pretty good in college before a bad injury. He had a good preseason last year as a UDFA in Washington and was on their practice squad all year so they obviously saw something worth developing. He signed a futures deal with the Panthers earlier this year, and everything about him has been increasingly positive. Tremayne has gotten a decent amount of time with the ones, and a lot with the twos for someone that doesn't have a chance. He's the only other 6'4" plus WR on the team, plays ST, and is a more natural backup to the X receiver position than David Moore. That was my thinking behind it. But he may well end up as one of the last roster cuts. If so, I do hope they can bring him back to the PS. But I personally think there's a good chance he could be claimed given his ST ability and what hes shown at WR.
    • That was my thought originally, but so many of the beat writers have mentioned keeping 7 WRs in conversations that I went with that, at least for the purposes of this projection. But you're right that historically defensive guys who were standouts at ST have tradionally gotten those last spots
