ClevelandFanForLife Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Perfect timing. Thanks to Bud Adams for doing this after we already got a new HC and DC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ballpeen Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Perfect timing considering that all teams have hired a new head coach. I agree. Adams is a little bitch. I'd fire Shurmer if I could hire Fisher.....he's GOOD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erie Dawg Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Fire dicky j and hire fisher for Def. Coordinator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Buffalo Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Lets be honest, I think Fisher can be a good head coach else where, but if our front office starts firing newly hired coaches that would be the biggest pile of bullshit in the history of this organization.

Erie Dawg Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 They were saying on the radio it is very likely that he don't coach this year, not because of position's available, but because of the CBA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longhorn Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Fisher is overrated. Good move by Bud Adams. Fisher is a power monger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich4eagle Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 This thread was funny start to finish. Fisher is a good head coach, but he never won the big one and has had some playoff teams. So, I say although he is a good coach, why do this, when he is now on the long side of a career. And it gets way harder after years than way easier Go young go big and go winner.............oops...............or go NFL assistant and pray...............that we did Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mopaji Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 I don't care what Shurmer's contract says, he's a talking head and nothing more. Make him the OC and get Fisher to coach this team!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DawgTracker Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 If Mangini takes over the titans it will come out one of two ways. The Browns fans who wanted mangini to stay will forever rue the day that he was booted and instead lead the titans to dominance, or the browns fans who wanted mangini gone will point to the titans record and say they were right. I think Mangini will show how it is done if he gets the chance in tennessee and make holmgren look like a fool for letting him go. Prove me wrong Mike!

professor_g Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Aren't the Titans expected to promote from within? I'd love to see Mangini there, but I don't see it happening. Grossi recently wrote that he thought Fisher was one of the most overrated coaches in the NFL. I'm in no position to disagree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLEVELandMILIDH Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Albert Haynesworth, Pacman Jones, Vince Young, LenDale White. Nice job Mr. Adams, Fisher's better off somewhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tshirtfan Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Fischer has won fewer than 8 games a season as often as he's won more than 8 games a season. Six winning seasons in 16 years is not enough for me to consider him the kind of elite coach that the talking heads on ESPN do. His postseason record is atrocious except for one SB appearance. His on the field product has usually been mediocre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLEVELandMILIDH Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 Fisher had 5 losing seasons in 16 years, thats with Neil O'donnell, Steve McNair, Billy Volek, Kerry Collins and Vince Young at stating QB. With the only good QB (McNair) he went 13-3, 13-3, 11-5 and 12-4 in 4 out of the first 5 years as the Tennessee Titans franchise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fisher's win percentage with Vince starting at QB is higher than his career win percentage. I don't see how someone can claim Fisher is an elite coach who has been held back by being forced to start a bad QB (Vince Young). Also, you're ignoring how many 8 win seasons he has. It's not a losing season, but it's not a winning one, either. Not saying Fisher is a bad coach, just that he's very much an average one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since they became the Titans in '99 they've had 2 8-8 seasons, both with VY at the helm. Fisher's won atleast 10 games 50% of that time. Thats 6, atleast 10 win seasons in 12 years, finishing below .500 4 times, 1 with VY and twice with an injured washed up McNair. I'll take that anyday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll take that anyday You're omitting the fact that VY brought the team to 8-8 from 0-6, when he replaced Kerry Collins. And Fisher didn't even want to make that change. Bud Adams, the owner who's apparently been hindering Fisher by shoving terrible players down his throat, had to pull rank and force him to start Vince. VY has hurt himself by acting like a complete tool when he should have kept his composure. But don't act like Fisher won games in spite of Vince Young; Vince saved his job that 8-8 year.
