Power Ranking Number 18: Tennessee Titans

Fantasy Football players don’t worry running back Chris Johnson will be with the Tennessee Titans week one of the season. Johnson is the heart and sole of the Titans offense and had a historic season last year only in his second year in the NFL. The team switched to quarterback Vince Young and he led the team back to an 8-8 final record for the season. Young will open the season as the starter and the team expects him to continue to develop to a better all around quarterback.

The Titans drafted defensive end Derrick Morgan in the first round and expect him to provide some pass rush help to the team since they lost defensive end Kyle Vanden Bosch in free agency. The defense added linebacker Will Witherspoon as a free-agent and expect to take the place of Keith Bulluck who is still a free-agent and could possible return to the Titans. Cornerback Cortland Finnegan needs to stay healthy as he 3 games last season, all games the Titans lost.

Head coach Jeff Fisher has the longest tenure as head coach with one team among active head coaches in the NFL and needs to keep winning and there are some whispers around the NFL that he is on the hot seat in Tennessee. If this team plays like they did the last 10 games of the season in which they won 8 games, Fisher won’t have to worry about his job in 2011.

Coaches on the Hot Seat


Here are seven head coaches that are on the hot seat already six weeks into the NFL season.

1. Washington Redskins, Jim Zorn – Zorn has been on the hot seat since Week 1 of this season and most likely will have to make the playoffs to save his job. This week he has already lost his offensive play calling role to Sherman Lewis who was just brought in by the Redskins as a consultant and now is the offensive coordinator.

2. Oakland Raiders, Tom Cable – Cable has the Raiders 2-4, but the team has look horrible on offense and with his off the field issue where Randy Hanson reportedly told police that he punched him and broke his jaw. If he doesn’t show improvement on offense and win at least 5 games this season you could see Al Davis make another coaching move.

3. Buffalo Bills, Dick Jauron – Jauron like Cable has the Bills at 2-4 and his offense has also been bad, they fired their offensive coordinator before the season but that hasn’t improved the situation. The Bills might not fire Jauron because of the economics with the Bills and owner Ralph Wilson.

4. Tennessee Titans, Jeff Fisher – Fisher is the longest tenured head coach in the NFL, but with the Titans coming off a 13-3 season and starting the season 0-6, it doesn’t sit well with owner Bud Adams. Adams is thinking Fisher time might have run it course and it could be time to go in another direction.

5. Cleveland Browns, Eric Mangini – Mangini is in his first year in Cleveland, but things aren’t looking good for him. The team hasn’t performed and many players have complained about Mangini and the way he runs a team. Former Cleveland Browns quarterback Bernie Kosar has joined the team as a consultant, and will help evaluated Mangini performance.

6. Carolina Panthers, John Fox – Fox has guided the Panthers to two straight wins, but will need to keep the wins coming, because it is public knowledge that former Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Bill Cowher has a home in Charlotte, NC and would like to get back in to coaching that the Panthers seem to be a perfect fit for him.

7. Dallas Cowboys, Wade Phillips – Phillips will need to get the Cowboys into the playoffs or owner Jerry Jones will fire him and bring in a big name head coach like Mike Shanahan, Bill Cowher, or Mike Holmgren to guide the Cowboys in the 2010 season.
