Mike75 Posted November 3, 2015 Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 Since 1970 merger, only one coach has had a worse record in his first 23 games with an NFL team than Ken Whisenhunt and that was John McKay with an expansion Tampa Bay Bucs team in 1976. Whisenhunt was 3-20 as head coach in TN and 4-31 in last 35 games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tripp Posted November 3, 2015 Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 tough to defend that record but to be fair to him he has almost no talent on this titans team. It doest matter how good the coach is if you dont have good players to implement his coaching. Give Whiz the Packers and hed make the playoffs and win a div title every single season, as would any nfl caliber coach. Give any coach the Titans and the team still sucks until the get some better players That isnt to say all coaches are equal and only the players matter. I dont think NE wins anywhere near as much as they have the past 10-15 years without Belicheck as coach. But talent matters and a coach can only do so much when given so little.

Big Bear Posted November 3, 2015 Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 why??? they were not supposed to be any good. rookie QB why blame the coach? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharp Square Posted November 3, 2015 Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 He was definitely in a tough spot but seems ownership wasn't happy that at least some kind of progress wasn't being seen esp on offense. There isn't a ton of talent to work with but didn't seem to be a lot of upswing half way through season either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike75 Posted November 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 why??? they were not supposed to be any good. rookie QB why blame the coach? Ask Kinger and Diabler what they think of Whisenhunt. He lost 11 if his last 12 games in Arizona. Goes to TN who were a 3 point and 2 point loss from being 9-7 in 2013 and promptly starts saying they will build off of 2013 get better and make the postseason. Instead they go 2-14 then he goes 1-6 this year. As far as TN goes they have the 5th best defense in the league. However they have some good players on offense and Mariota was playing well. This year the Titans have lost games by one point against Buffalo,two points against Indy,three points against Atlanta and should be 4-3 leading the AFC South but Whisenhunt in the 4th quarter goes ultra conservative losing games in the process.

Big Bear Posted November 3, 2015 Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 They should hire Jim Tressel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike75 Posted November 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2015 Basically, they fired Whisenhunt to protect Marcus Mariota from his own head coach. Remember the RG3 injury? Whisenhunt doesnt do enough to protect his QB's. That and the losses Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
