Titans promoted QBs coach Dowell Loggains to offensive coordinator.
Dave Ragone has been moved from receivers coach to quarterbacks coach, replacing Loggains in the latter role, while Shawn Jefferson will take over for Ragone with the Titans' wideouts. Loggains closed out the 2012 season as "interim" offensive coordinator, after the dismissal of Chris Palmer. It was a small sample size, but the offense showed little improvement under Loggains.

Titans offensive consultant Tom Moore has "no plans" to remain with the team in 2013, and will seek a coordinating job.

The Titans' coordinator position is technically open, but Moore expects interim OC Dowell Loggains to be retained. "They have their coaching staff set there at Tennessee, and I don’t want anybody’s job," Moore said. Peyton Manning's offensive coordinator from 1998-2008 (and a "consultant" in 2009-10), it's possible Moore is eyeing a reunion in Denver, but that's pure speculation. Moore turned 74 in November.

Updating a previous item, former Bears OC Mike Tice will not be interviewed for the Titans' offensive coordinator vacancy.

Perhaps Bud Adams flipped on some 2012 Bears tape. It sounds like the Titans' OC job is going to Dowell Loggains, although that's not set in stone just yet. Tice will probably resurface elsewhere as a line or tight ends coach.

Jim Wyatt of the Nashville Tennessean "expects" Titans interim offensive coordinator Dowell Loggains to be given the full-time job in 2013.

The choice may not be popular with Titans fans. Chris Palmer was fired as offensive coordinator after the team started 4-7 and ranked No. 24 in offense. Loggains, the quarterbacks coach, took over on an interim basis, and the offense didn't show much improvement. We'll give him the benefit of the doubt, though, as the Tennessee offensive line lost four starters to injury. Jake Locker was playing with a bum left shoulder, and Kenny Britt was never 100 percent. Ex-Bears OC Mike Tice and Titans consultant Tom Moore have also been linked to the job.
Jan 3 - 11:12 PM

Titans will interview ex-Bears offensive coordinator Mike Tice for the same position in Tennessee.

Tice was promoted from line coach to coordinator in Chicago prior to the 2012 season, and the unit finished No. 28 in total offense. Tennessee wanted to interview Tice last season, but they were denied permission and Tice was subsequently promoted. Tennessee fired Chris Palmer as the team's OC at midseason. Tom Moore, a team consultant, is also considered a candidate for the job.
Jan 3 - 9:15 PM

Titans consultant Tom Moore is a "potential candidate" to serve as the offensive coordinator next season.

Moore, known for helping develop Peyton Manning in Indy, is 74. But according to Titans coach Mike Munchak, he "wants to be an offensive coordinator. He feels excited. He feels he’s got a lot of energy. He feels great about it." If Moore does get the promotion, Dowell Loggains will go back to his quarterbacks coach position. Former OC Chris Palmer was fired after the 11th game of the season.
Jan 2 - 9:34 AM

The Nashville Tennessean suggests senior executive VP and COO Mike Reinfeldt was fired because he didn't take the Peyton Manning pursuit seriously enough last offseason.

Owner Bud Adams made it clear last March that he would move heaven and earth to draw Manning back to Tennessee, but Reinfeldt was focused on his tag-team of veteran Matt Hasselbeck and prospect Jake Locker. Adams wasn't sure if Reinfeldt even clued GM Ruston Webster and Mike Munchak into the owners' plans to aggressively target Manning in free agency.
Jan 1 - 1:25 PM

The Titans will retain head coach Mike Munchak for 2013.

It's a mild surprise after cantankerous, soon-to-be 90-year-old owner Bud Adams routinely slammed his team's performance during the season. However, Adams is the same owner who stuck with Jeff Fisher for 17 years, so he clearly values stability. Coming off a 6-10 season where his team was outscored by 141 points, Munchak will have a lot to prove in his third year in Nashville. The Titans also announced that GM Ruston Webster has been retained, although front-office executive (and former GM) Mike Reinfeldt has been let go.

Owner Bud Adams will take time to meet with his advisers in the front office before determining the fate of coach Mike Munchak.

"I still have to talk to my people there," said Adams, "and see where we are going, what's been going on there and why we haven't won more games like we did this one." According to the Nashville Tennessean, "indications are" Adams will end up keeping Munchak for another season after finishing 6-10 in 2012.

According to the Nashville Tennessean, the Titans will not fire head coach Mike Munchak this offseason.

"They're going to keep [Munchak]. Get used to it," says David Climer of the Tennessean. The basis for Climer's argument is that owner Bud Adams, 90, is simply too old to go through a rebuilding process just two years after he handed the keys to the car to Munchak. The Titans are 5-10 heading into Sunday's game against the Jaguars, and they are coming off a 55-7 embarrassing, blowout loss to the Packers in Week 16. Munchak's contract runs through 2014, but his assistants' deals expire after 2013. So, changes are expected to be made from the coordinators and on down.

Chris Palmer was reportedly fired in part due to a "disconnect of sorts" between the coordinator and his players as well as some position coaches.

Palmer is a bit of a relic, having spent the 2010 season in the UFL and last coordinating an offense in 2005 before joining the Titans. Jared Cook and Chris Johnson, in particular, have voiced displeasure over the direction of the offense. Palmer's play-calling came under fire at times and the players and assistant coaches were reluctant to buy into his approach. The Titans' skill-position talent has gone to waste under Palmer. According to NFL Network's Albert Breer, the organization had lost faith in Palmer's ability "to be creative in general, and sharp enough on game day in particular." New coordinator Dowell Loggains, who started his career under Sean Payton, is seen as a "rising star in the profession."

Titans fired offensive coordinator Chris Palmer and replaced him with QBs coach Dowell Loggains.

The 4-7 Titans are coming off a loss to the lowly Jaguars on Sunday where they scored just 19 points against one of the league's worst defenses. Tennessee entered Monday as the league's No. 24 offense, ranking No. 20 in passing and No. 19 in rushing. Loggains is in his fifth season on the Titans' staff and his third as QBs coach. Palmer lasted just over a season-and-a-half in Tennessee. He is known as a QB guru, but Jake Locker showed little development under his watch. Loggains, highly regarded by Titans insiders for his intelligence and rapport with players, drew interest from the Bears prior to the 2012 season. "Munchak loves him," a source told ESPN Chicago last January. "(He's a) great guy, very smart, up-and-coming guy."

Titans owner Bud Adams expressed extreme displeasure with the state of his team following Sunday's embarrassing, 51-20 home loss to the Bears.

"In my 50 years of owning an NFL franchise, I am at a loss to recall a regular-season home game that was such a disappointment for myself and fans of the Titans," said Adams. "We were grossly outcoached and outplayed from start to finish today. At this time, all aspects of the organization will be closely evaluated, including front office, coaches, and players over the next seven games. If performance and competitiveness does not improve, I will look at all alternatives to get back to having the Titans become a playoff and championship football team." The Titans are 3-6 and have allowed 308 points through nine games. Last year, Tennessee allowed 317 points -- all season.

Titans promoted VP of Player Personnel Ruston Webster to GM and Mike Reinfeldt to Chief Operating Officer.

Our guess is that the promotions mean Reinfeldt will be involved less with day-to-day football decisions, and that Webster will now occupy that role. Reinfieldt may get more business power. Aside from Webster having more football say -- but still answering to Reinfeldt -- the front-office shuffling doesn't appear likely to affect much in terms of draft and free agency.

Citing multiple sources, ESPN's Joe Schad reports that Titans coach Mike Munchak is "torn" about his coaching future, and Penn State believes Munchak may listen to their overtures "after all."

Munchak is reportedly struggling with the idea that he might be able to "fix and make right" his alma mater. "He loves his school and his heart is torn," said one source. "He really fits what they want and need to a tee." Per Schad, Munchak's future should be resolved within a week. Our best guess is that he will stay in Tennessee, but only after seriously considering PSU. Patriots OC Bill O'Brien is reportedly among Penn State's fallback targets.
