Joining us now all the way from Nash Vegas. He's on News Channel 5 in Nashville. And of course, he's the midday host on at Nash Sports Radio from 9 to 11 Central Time. Ladies and general friends, we are thrilled to be joined by our boss at WEEI's absolute favorite. Mr. John Burton here on Six Rings and Football Things. How you doing, John? I'm doing great. How are you guys doing? Can you hear me okay?

Yeah, you sound great. You can hear you loud and clear, my friend. All right. Thank you for having me on.

Hey, thank you for joining us. We appreciate this. Given our fans a little proper behind enemy lines perspective and trading some football, busting and a couple of good-natured barbs is really kind of

like what the balance in the world of podcasting of news reporting but you know properly maintained

fandom is all about so give us just right now uh give us your 10,000 foot on exactly what a mess

everything has been from post-vrable through the Callahan error,

because that's kind of looking Gerard Mayo-esque just related to a different lineage.

And what we can expect when we see Mike McCoy coaching the Titans on Sunday,

does anybody know?

No, nobody knows. We're all waiting to see what happens on Sunday.

As far as the Titans go, I mean, it's an absolute mess. I mean, this is four straight years now that either a head coach or a GM or both have been fired by Amy Adams Strunk, the owner.

There's been no structure.

There's been seemingly no plan put in place, which is pretty remarkable when you consider we got a new stadium coming in in 2027.

So, yeah, it feels like a rudderless ship here in Tennessee with the Tennessee Titans,

and it starts at the top with their owner.

And, you know, as far as Mike McCoy goes, he's stepping in as the interim head coach this

week. And I guess priority number one is going to have to be fixing the offense and getting

Cam Ward going. You know, the Titans' offense only averages about 13.8 points per game right now,

which is just, you know, you look at what those old geysers did Thursday night in Cincinnati, and, you know, that's not going to cut it, especially with a young rookie quarterback. So that's priority one, fix this offense, get Cam Ward, some rhythm, get him going a little bit but you know organizationally you know you got

chad brinker as the president of football operations Mike borganzi a boston guy coming in um you

know from the kansas city chiefs as a general manager and you know they're doing everything they can

i guess but right now man you can see it on the player's faces too when you talk in the locker room.
