    Whisenhunt fired...Again!

    Glad the Front Office made the absolutely right choice when they hired Tomlin over Whisenhunt although I'm sure Whisenhunt is a genius at "clock management." See how far that has gotten him.

    That just means he'll be available when Haley goes to Miami!
    Actually, my post was NOT about you...but, if the shoe fits, feel free to lace that &!+€# up and wear it.

      The last thing Ben needs is Whisenhunt if Haley would ever leave.

          He sucks. He is like 3-20 with Tennessee. He has never develop a QB. He was lucky enough to inherit Kurt Warner who made him look better than we was.

            The Titans were 1-6 including blowout losses to Tampa, Miami and a loss to the dismal Texans this past week.

              I thought that this was a pretty funny headline given who made the statement:

                Maybe they will give Lebeau the "Genius" the job After all according to some Whisenhunt brought him in to run the defense even though he isn't the Def Coord. Talk about an example of poor leadership and management!!!!

                  Um, wasn't he the offensive coordinator in Pittsburgh in 2004 and 2005? I seem to remember a young QB with the Steelers from that era who turned out to be ok...

                    Then you fail to remember how constrained Ben was and the tension between the two of them. Ben developed under Arians and Haley not Whisenhunt.

                      i thought the players won and lost games, not the coaches.
                      oh, that's right. all depends on the agenda
                      steelers = 3 ring circus with tomlin being the head clown

                          They had some tension, sure. Ben also averaged 8.9 yards per attempt - the best of his career.

                            In Whisenhunt's last season as head coach in Arizona in, he lost 11 out of the last 12 games, following a 4-0 start. In his first year in Tennessee as head coach last season, they were 2-14. This year, he won the opener then lost 6 straight games. So in his last 35 games as a head coach, he had 4 wins and 31 losses. Ouch. That pretty much explains it.
                            Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.

                            Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.

                            We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.

                            We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus.

                              Rivers, after a few down years, also had a resurgence under Whiz in 2013, when the Chargers improved to 5th in total offense from 30th the year before.

                              Whiz might not be a very good head coach, but he is an excellent offensive coordinator.
