Confirmed: Titans and Fisher Parting Ways

127 posts in this topic

Here's what Adam Schefter just tweeted.

[quote][b]Anyone looking for a HC in 2012 can choose from Bill Cowher, Jon Gruden, Jeff Fisher, Brian Billick.[/b][/quote]

If Fisher doesn't get hired and stays out of coaching this season, I will say come 2012 that is an impressive list of Free Agent Head Coaches to choose from.

I'm thinking the main reason Tom Coughlin stayed with the Giants was because Fisher wasn't available and I think the Giants jump on Fisher and fire Coughlin.

I don't understand the Coughlin firing thing. He's got a history there and he's won a Lombardi within the last 5 years.

The Titans have now confirmed the news via their official Twitter feed, as of 30 minutes ago: ([url="http://twitter.com/#%21/tennesseetitans/status/30773353933443072"]LINK[/url])

The Titans have an official Twitter account? That's kind of tacky IMO.

The [url="http://twitter.com/#!/STEELERS"]Pittsburgh Steelers[/url] have an official account, too. So do most of their popular players. Every NFL team probably has an official Twitter feed.

Just saw this on Fox Sports, Fisher is going to receive $8 Million as part of his "settlement" to walk away from the Titans. So does this mean Adams is paying Fisher not to coach next season and we should expect Fisher to be recruited by ESPN/NFL Network for 1 season and return back to coaching?

[quote]NFL sources said Fisher will receive $8 million as part of his settlement to walk away from the Titans after 16 full seasons — the majority of what was due in the final year of his contract. Fisher was to receive $5.6 million in salary for 2011 with a $4 million bonus. The move is expected to be announced as a mutual parting of ways.[/quote]

I think we should all create accounts on the Titans board and create a buzz for Cam.

The rest of you guys and gals can say what you want, but this is a pretty clever idea.

Or, just get someone to post that Cam has a 40 time under 4.4 and BAM, he's a Raider!

Ha! That's Great.

I'm on their Message Boards now... looking to see what they are saying and they have a thread already made about who they want as the new Head Coach.... perfect place to post about Cam. We should throw out the whole 2007 Dolphins season tape and show them the game against us and say he's a Winner!

This isn't too surprising. The moniker "longest tenure coach" isn't necessarily a good thing. Looks like Vince Young > Jeff Fisher in Bud Adams' mind.

I am no longer PuRock the Ravens fan. But PuRock the Titans fan. And my first order of business is demand the voice of the fans be heard. We need to hire Cam Cameron has HC!

I see 1 post about Cam Cameron and I can't figure out which user on here posted it but yeah Cam is Awesome. Titans should hire him.

P.S. Can Mods hide our "Fire Cam" Threads and replace them with "Why Titans should hire Cam as HC" Threads so the Titans fans don't catch on to what we are trying to do... which is to help them get a great Head Coach! Cam will do wonders for "Insert QB Name Here."

Now you got the idea. Great thinking JO. If we all put our heads together, we can make this happen.

ah ok I just wanted to be sure. Yeah I'm kinda just waiting to see the Cam posts and threads pop up, I laughed when I saw the first one.

Edit: PU, do we know for sure that Bud Adams reads the Titans message boards like Steve reads ours?

They have to approve you and then send confirmation later.....let's see how long it takes.
[/quote]

I'm already in and confirmed. It's going to look shady but my first post was:

[quote]I don't think any of these guys are good options.

And underrated guy that we could get is Cam Cameron. He took a lot of heat in Baltimore but their offensive line was brutal. 2nd most in sacks.

Cam's schemes would work here. We have the deep threats that make his schemes thrive.[/quote]

Dammit, Titans fans ARE smarter than I thought. Response to my first post:

[quote]Cam Cameron went 1-15 with the Dolphins who were able to go 11-5 the next season. No thanks[/quote].
