Speed of the hire, not Mike Vrabel, is the surprise from the Titans

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Mike Vrabel is the new coach of the Tennessee Titans and I hope he’s great.

I hope he brings the franchise success and energy, I hope he and Jon Robinson are a long-time successful pairing. I want that because it’ll be fun to cover and because I know it’s what readers here most want.

“This is an incredible opportunity & one I have been preparing for my entire football life. I am excited to get to work & that work starts now. Everything we do is going to be geared towards winning & being physical." - @CoachVrabel50
