Tennessee Titans head coach Brian Callahan was asked today if he would consider giving up playcalling. It is not the first time he has been asked that question since he took over as the head coach, but his answer was different today. Every other time he has been asked, he has shut it down pretty quickly. Today, he said that pretty much everything is on the table after the 0-3 start.
Part of the reason Callahan was hired was that he was supposed to be an asset as a playcaller. That hasn’t come to fruition
through the first 20 games here. There is still time for that to change, but time is running out.
If he does decide to give up playcalling, I would assume that responsibility would go to offensive coordinator Nick Holz, who was hand picked by Callahan to be the OC. I’m not sure that would really change anything.
The biggest thing to consider is whether or not giving up playcalling would help Callahan be better at the in-game decisions that have been so bad this year. If Callahan thinks that he has too much on his plate during the games while calling the plays, he should go ahead and give it up.
