End of an Era: Reflections on Jeff Fisher and Titans

I was taken aback when last night I heard that Jeff Fisher and the Titans were parting ways.  After a few weeks ago it seemed that Fisher was going to be the coach for next season, it changed.  I have mixed feelings about this.  I remember when Fisher became the coach of the then Houston Oilers back in 1994.  He has been the coach of the team that became the Titans and a team that me and people from Tennessee could call our own.  He took the team to the Super Bowl and was one yard away from having a chance to win it.  There have been ups and downs.

I like Jeff Fisher as a coach but I'm okay with him leaving.  At some point, there should be a change.  I wouldn't be surprised in a year or so he's back coaching.  And I think he would be successful.  I also think that the Titans will be successful as well.  I think they will find the right coach and the team will rally behind the coach and I think that they will have a chance to make the playoffs next season.
