Summary

The Tennessee Titans hired Robert Saleh weeks ago, but we finally got official word on his full coaching staff. There are some fantastic moves all over like hiring Brian Daboll, Aaron Whitecotton and retaining Bones Fassel and Luke Stocker. However, there were two eyebrow raisers that have nepotism written all over them as Saleh hired his own cousin and general manager Mike Borgonzi's younger brother. These moves are pretty common around the NFL, but there is no doubt there will be scrutiny if it doesn't work. Of course, winning solves all issues and the Titans must win to not cause a stir. Overall, this is still an excellent staff with a lot of experience and is a big departure from the Brian Callahan experience.
