Titans may drop Dave McGinnis too

Titans interested in Frank Bush for LB Coach

Titans Coach Mike Munchak has identified former Texans defensive coordinator Frank Bush as a leading candidate for a position on his defensive staff, as linebackers coach.

He's expected to interview soon.

Bush was teammates with Munchak with the Houston Oilers, and has coached with the Oilers, Broncos, Cardinals and Texans.

The addition of Bush would raise questions about the status of Dave McGinnis, assistant head coach/linebacker with the Titans since the 2004 season.

Wyatt allows for the possibility that they keep him, but if so, where? The DC job is expected to go to Jerry Gray, so it won't be that. And from what I've seen so far, I don't think Munchak would keep him as an assistant head coach only.

Starting to look like Munchak is dumping anybody else who would have been considered as a head coaching possibility.

With all due respect to Warren Belin, McGinnis would have been my first choice for an LB coach (too late for that now, though).

    • Going from the 32nd to 27th ranked QB is a huge achievement indeed.
    • I do expect the offense to fall back to earth next year if everything stays the same.  It is kinda like how the Panthers and even now the Chiefs won in the past.  Winning many close, coin flip games.  It never lasts from season to season usually. 
    • Biased is one way of putting it. The NFL is an entertainment product in the strictest legal sense. Although I might yell it out on game days, I do not believe the games are outright “rigged” meaning there is one team that is going to win no matter what happens. It’s impossible. There’s too much variance in the game that can prevent a truly rigged game from happening unless there was cooperation from many parties involved. What I am thoroughly convinced happens is that the NFL and referees “manage” the games towards certain outcomes. And that is done primarily through referee crew choice however I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s more going on behind the curtain.  The NFL uses the officials statistical tendencies to call penalties is to keep games close to drive user engagement. For example, If a crew tends to call more false start penalties, and there’s a game between a heavy pass offense where the NFL would like to manufacture a close game where it might have potential to be a blowout, then they’ll assign a crew that will slow that offense down and keep the game close.  There is an insane amount of marketing and now sports betting money that is married to the NFL economic ecosystem. To think this whole system is fair when the referee union has no outward accountability structure for poor performance is just naive. It’s closer to the WWE than outward appearances suggest, but it’s not a fully scripted outcome either. So for those who say “stop watching” if you don’t want to watch a “rigged” game, it’s an entertainment product. You can still be entertained by it, even if it’s not as fair as a truly merit based sporting event.
