The Tennessee Titans announced on Monday that they have mutually agreed to part ways with head coach Mike Mularkey, and that could complicate things for Josh McDaniels more than anyone.
As McDaniels is preparing to call plays for the New England Patriots in the AFC Championship game, two AFC South teams will be trying to come up with a plan to convince him to become their next head coach.
Wrote a couple weeks ago: If Josh McDaniels wanted the #Colts job, it was probably his. Wild card with McDaniels was if #Titans fired Mike Mularkey. Well, here we go …

Have been hearing McDaniels name connected to Titans for quite some time. See how this unfolds. He’s a coveted man. https://t.co/6sb22CqBwc

McDaniels, of course, is best known for working with Tom Brady for a number of years. He now has an opportunity to coach either Andrew Luck or Marcus Mariota, and the sky is seemingly the limit for both quarterbacks. Luck’s health could play a factor in McDaniels’ decision, though the latest we have heard makes it seem like that won’t be an issue.
McDaniels was the head coach of the Denver Broncos for two seasons in 2009 and 2010, and things did not go well. That probably had a lot to do with Tim Tebow being his QB, but the 41-year-old may not get another shot if he fails again.
