The Titans looked like a growing young squad that was flat out better than the Colts for parts of last season and with a top 5 pick and another in the top 20, they could be poised to take another big step forward.

The Titans look like they're headed in a positive direction. The Colts, OTOH, employ Ryan Grigson. The only advantage the Colts have on anybody on that division anywhere in that organization is Andrew Luck.

And when you'r worse everywhere else, I think it's difficult to claim dominion over the division. I don't think they'll get that traction back.

True - the Titans look good and should be at least 'on par' with what Indy can bring to the table, which is why Indy would be smart to cut bait with Pagano and plan accordingly. This is why I think it would make a lot of sense for McDaniels to end up in Indy.

Surprised David Shaw isn't getting a look to move up to the NFL. Stanford had a down year this year but he is still a solid coach.

People act as if Luck didn't have any weapons or whatnot on offense either. Shit, they've spent an ass ton of resources for WR's, TE's and such. The ol sucked but alot of OL's suck.

Alot of these teams are at a spot where they need more known, experienced guys.

If it were me in SF, Shaw would be at the top of my list.

IIRC, the Tits have alot of cap space too. Could really build something nice there with an addition of a few WR's and some DBs.

I think they'd be a team that would be heavy in on EB if he hits FA as well.

Titans have about $70M with 45 players for 2017, Colts have about $50M with 50 players.

Likewise.

The lens of History (and the stank of Scott Pioli) puts a very different view of Haley's tenure here than there was in real-time.

In hindsight, Haley was a damn miracle worker. And while the weapons in Pittsburgh make a big difference, he's always been a good offensive mind.

I'm not sure if he's truly HC material; he may be too vested in playing with the offense and not enough in being an administrator but I think he's earned another look. After plowing through some rough patches with Ben, I think he's earned their trust and established that he can relate to players again.

I think he'd be among the better guys hired if given another shot and honestly, the Chargers seem like a nice spot for him.

This

Haley should and will get another shot somewhere

He was stuck with a top 3 terrible GM and there wasnt a damn thing he could do about it

SF ownership was the ones that picked Baalke over Harbaugh though and Shaw is a Harbaugh disciple. Might be some bad blood there.

Yeah, I think Shaw would tell them to **** off as well.

The 9ers job just looks awful right now.

To Me: Haley was best with Weiss as the OC and Crennell as the DC. I could be wrong, but after that it was a cluster.

I'm curious who's gonna take that Rams job. Thats one I thought would be a big sought after one, but with Goff looking like ass, i'm not sure.

I don't think Shaw is interested in making the move to the NFL.

Also, I wish a 10-3 season was a down year for my team, :(

I think the Rams would be a good fit for Shaw. Stanford is not a blue blood and support for the football program ebbs and flows among the fans and administration.

What do you think the trade price tag is for Sean Payton? I think Denver has to be considering it, but based on history... may be too much of an asking price.

Heard this morning that teams can interview playoff teams this weekend only. These guys will be busy.

Jets coach Todd Bowles said he never feared for his job. He said owner Woody Johnson "never gave me the impression in our conversations my job was in jeopardy. Obviously, he has the right to change his mind, but Woody backed me the whole time and I'm proud that he did."
