Nothing is certain in the NFL. That seemed especially true today with the ending of Jeff Fisher's tenure as coach of the Tennessee Titans. He had lead the team since being named interim coach during the 1994 season.
He had one year left on his contract which will pay him $8 million. He had a long and protracted argument during the season with owner Bud Adams over the retention of Vince Young as the team's quarterback. Fisher said that he would not be back if Young stayed with the team. Adams relented and said the team would release Young.
Something happened in the last couple of weeks to change Adam's mind. All parities are saying the decision was mutual. It's probably not the best idea to battle their differences in the media.
On the other hand, how angry can you get when you will be paid $8 million and have other coaching and media options available now?
The move now leaves Coach Belichick as the longest tenured coach with one team.
