Kind of amusing fact about that Pats Titans game, the Pats covered the overunder themselves, it was at 49 points.
I'd be surprised if Fisher isn't retained.
Granted, he fucked up big time by not signing a guy to handle the kick/punt returns until the Titans had already seen special teams cost them 2 of their first 3 games, but the problems with this team (shit special teams, no pass rush, no receivers who can catch the ball, bunch of injuries in the secondary) have more to do with personnel than with coaching.
That said, I fully expect some wholesale roster and coaching changes to come down in Tennessee, just not the head coach.
Vince Young's contract is up and probably won't be renewed. Keith Bulluck and Kyle Vanden Bosch will likely be cap casualties. Jevon Kearse's comeback is probably over. Craig Hentrich is likely retiring after being put on IR. etc.
There should be a ton of new faces on the roster next year, though I doubt they can turn things around in one year.
Realistically, the Titans had their Super Bowl chance last year, and they fucked it up by turning the ball over in the playoff game against Baltimore. Thanks to some shitty drafting and free agent signings over the last three or so years, they are pretty much back to rebuilding in 2010.

Best stat of the day: Every week this year the Redskins have faced a winless team.
I went a little overboard with my hatred of the pats whoops. Honestly when I first knew about it I didn't realize that it was all in one quarter.
Also losing to a divisional team does not mean the Jets are done, that shit happens a lot. No matter how good the Colts are and how bad the Jags are they usually play a really good game, just to give an example.
Ahem... Jim Zorn? Anyone? Anyone?
See 2007 game between Skins and Patriots. Bellichick loves running up the score.
To be fair, Jason Campbell's numbers have improved every year since becoming a starter. However, I have no idea what the fuck happened this weekend. Oh wait....
The Redskins are the first team ever to face winless teams six weeks in a row and demonstrate so convincingly how much they suck..

Employer: Philadelphia Eagles
Location: Lincoln Financial Field, Philadelphia, PA
Position Advertised: Wide Receiver (hybrid)
Salary: To be negotiated
Job Description: Need two (2) WR's for a professional football team in Philadelphia, PA. Potential candidates must be able to catch passes, block and occasionally play special teams. What is wrong with our current WR's you ask? Nothing in a traditional football sense. Our two starting WR's are actually quite good. The problem is that they do not fit our scheme, specifically our QB's style of play.
What we are essentially looking for are two able-bodied individuals who can catch our QB's worm-burner throws. Must have lightning quick reflexes and be able to catch a 90 mph throw 1 inch off of the ground. This basically requires our potential candidates to have arms for legs.
Thank you very much for your interest in the Philadelphia Eagles organization, however only those who are chosen for an interview will be contacted.
Good luck,
Joe Banner
President
Philadelphia Eagles
