"Titans OL coach Munchak appears to be the favorite to become the teams next head coach. He has already turned down three offers this year to take position with other teams which included the Carolina Panthers head coaching job, per Adam Schefter."

Now this would have been an interesting hire.....the Panthers had a deal on the table and were turned down....imagine if this hire had happened.....we would have a completely different outlook then....

What this really says to me is......Rivera was not the first choice and may not have been the second or third....

the guys they were interested in they went out and interviewed and then they hired the guy they liked.

move on.

Correction.

The guys that were interested in the Panthers, they went out and interviewed and they hired A guy they liked.

If this report is correct, Rivera was never THE guy, he was A guy. The question is how many guys were there ahead of Rivera?

unless you would rather just live a paranoid existance and believe that there is some massive consipracy going on.

Now that's just silly.

I'm only suggesting Rivera was not the top name on the list and that the Panthers may have settled. It's a fair suggestion considering the report that has been blasted all over ESPN as a fact. If a deal was on the table and refused, then that sounds like an important little tid bit of information.

I would hate for Richardson to be hiring whatever he can find available, rather than actually assembling a quality coaching staff that meshes together. I'm already concerned that Rivera doesn't have enough control or even input into the coaching staff selection process.

Yes men bother me. I pray that Rivera is not Richardson's yes man.

Do you people have short term memory loss or something?

Rivera was the first person they interviewed, and all the other candidates said they didn't even feel like they had a shot because Rivera was a shoe in for the job. If that doesn't scream "THATS THE GUY WE WANT!" I don't know what does.

You really think we wanted some OC over a highly touted DC?

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.

      "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
