Wow! Shocking considering the fact that he has turned that franchise around.
Did the owners only now realize that the Titans have a ceiling? I thought they new but didn't care as long as they won enough and regularly got to the playoffs?
Maybe they were fooled by getting the No. 1 seed last year?
Vrabel will be next. Hopefully we sweep them this year. Take full control of the AFC South starting next year and reign dominant for the next decade+.

Not sure about this. Vrabel has been one of the better coaches in the league despite the lack of talent that they've had....
Didnt they have like the most injured team last year?

It's never good for a long time coach when the GM gets fired. Even if Vrabel gets another year what does he have to achieve to stick around with a GM that didn't hire him?
If the Jaguars get their personnel department and/or defense straight we'll be running the division, where does that leave a guy like Vrabel?

Sometimes being good enough just isn't enough. We've seen a lot of coaches like Vrabel over the years have moderate success but never make the actual run that teams need and owners covet. Andy Reid's stint with the Eagles jumps out. Mike Zimmer's stint with the Vikings also jumps out. Mike Smith with the Falcons, etc.

Exactly. Most teams are not afraid of making moves like this. Philadelphia made a decision to cut ties with Pederson and we all laughed when Sirianni was talking about systems and stuttering like Porky the Pig during his first press conference. He's now the crowned prince of the NFC and looking like the 2nd coming of Sean McVay.
Good. I hope Vrabel is next, and I hope the Tacks hire their own version of Gus Bradley and Gene Smith. Would love to see that franchise circle the drain for a few years. Can't happen soon enough.

Usually when a owner fires the GM she fires the whole front office that he had hired, but thats not the case in this scenario.
Reports are coming out that Vrabel had a fall out with the GM for trading almost all the star players and getting little to nothing in return. This seems like a Texans Bill O'Brien situation where the Tacks give Vrabel full control of all the decisions and its going to blow into their ugly faces. It's never a good thing when coaches try to get involved in other stuff outside of their jobs.

I like the fact that their owner isnt settling for only "good enough" like our dumb owner.
This is a bold move and I respect it.
He shoulda been fired the moment he traded away AJ Brown.

Or the moment they gave up Corey Davis for an aged Julio Jones. Lol
Falcons screwed them and I love it.

So all you need to do is replace half the team and straighten out the front office and you're good to go!

Gotcha! Let me know how that works out for you

Oh my, yes.
One thousand times, yes.
Note that they did this move before any 'get right' game somewhere on the upcoming schedule might confuse the ownership to thinking that things were going to be fine.

Definitely. AJ Brown came into Nashville and kicked the Titans [BLEEP] with 8 receptions 119 yards and 2 TDs

I hope we sweep those bastards, too. In embarrassing fashion.
But do you see that happening?
Speaking of firing GMs, I recall many people turning up their noses as Rick Spielman as our next GM.
I look at it like this:
If he can build a team that could muster home field advantage in the NFC championhip game with Case freaking Keenum, I'll take my chances in the same position with Trevor Lawrence.

I smiled when they traded him. I'm smiling now.
What a horrible trade. Wow.
