Quote:Mularkey barely had a chance, under Gene Smith, with a crap roster, and was mostly a victim of a new GM wanting his own coach. Lets be fair though... it isn't like he suddenly turned the Titans into a powerhouse. He went 2-7 after taking over last year, and has them at an incredible 6-6 so far this year... Improvement? Sure... but no one should be satisfied w/ .500.


Del Rio, I think we're all starting to see that it was truly a Gene Smith/Shack Harris issue. I think that became abundantly clear after Del Rio left and things only got worse. That said, he's a career .503 coach, who's had a couple of spike seasons (12-4, 11-5, currently 9-2). Certainly not "amazing", but again, career .503


Coughlin was let go and that was a mistake. In fact, Weaver has publicly said as much. He acknowledges that was not a good move. I was still a bit young at the time so my history is a bit fuzzy, but my understanding is that Salary Cap issues played a big part in his being let go. Coughlin's career percentage? .537



Gus Bradley currently has a .237 record.


Literally the WORST in the Modern NFL.


Second Worst EVER.


I've seen Apples compared to Oranges before...


This isn't even THAT close.


Also.. as I've said before. If he's retained next season, I walk away. I will no longer be able to consider myself a fan of the team. I'll casually watch Football, but will have little to no interest in how the Jags do.

You can't say Del Rio was done in by Gene Smith and Shack Harris and then call him a .500 ball coach. His record more indicates what he's dealt with than the work of his coaching. Clearly when he gets a piece of talent he takes it and turn it into a contender. Even when it's below average he's made them hard to beat. What would you think he would've done with this same roster this season?
