 Why did you decide to make the Tennessee Titans a stop on your Shorten tour? Well, there's two reasons the overriding reason is that at the end of last year I remember seeing Mike Vrable in the locker room in Kansas City and Mike Vrable was not crushed. He was not a Despondent nor was he hey man. We had a great year. He was just like all right. We're on to the next thing and You know, I just got this impression and I talked to Vrable while I was here I got the impression, you know that he really subscribes to the Parcells theory of You never start one year where you left off the previous year and that's exactly the way he feels but I Think there's so many interesting things about this team I mean when any football fan thinks of the Tennessee Titans They think of Derek Henry having these monstrous games in the playoffs Does any American football fan know? That Ryan Tannehill had the highest quarterback rating in the last six years last year for this team right here No, nobody nobody even has a clue but Arthur Smith Vrable Tannehill they they all figured out a way to do some really interesting Stuff on offense to do some really varied stuff on offense. I just I Don't I don't have a great feel for this division Should Houston win it again is Indy ready to take the jump can these guys hold everybody off? It's a fascinating team and it's a fascinating division Does the league does the national media know what to make of the 2020 Tennessee Titans? No I don't think America really knows to what made knows what to make of this team because Not necessarily the New England game because that to me was not a surprise at all the Baltimore game was a surprise and I think when you watch that game They know the one play that is front of mind about that play is you know The long Kaleef Raymond play that nobody saw coming I think that is one of the really really interesting things about this team and that is that You know Arthur Smith. I was talking to John Robinson Just shooting the breeze a little bit with him and and he said you know He tries to zig while everybody else is zagging and I think that's one of the great things about play callers in the NFL It isn't necessarily if you have the best players it is When you call plays the fact that it's a lot better to call a play when the defense doesn't see it coming And I think that's a lot of what this team is. So I think it's just a fascinating team
