Greg Williams on Titans Radar?

With Jeff Fisher out as coach of the Tennessee Titans, Gregg Williams’ name is being tossed around as a possible replacement.

There’s some logic in that because the New Orleans Saints defensive coordinator has deep ties to that franchise. Williams was an assistant there starting in 1990 when it was still the Houston Oilers, until 2000. He left to become the head coach in Buffalo and remains a popular figure in Tennessee.

He's also very close friends with Jeff Fisher.

I don't think he takes the job.

Deep ties? Really? No more than he has to Jacksonville or Buffallo. I think they already have their guy and it is in house.

They will hire Heimerdinger the OC. Williams wouldn't take the job out of respect for Fisher. Fisher is one of his friends.

I don't believe we have to worry about Gregg Williams going anywhere for now. He really has it good with the Saints. The Saints are also getting pretty close to having a great defense, I am sure he wants to see it through. I mean a little more help with the front 7 and it's going to be all good. The secondary is pretty much built.

I'm going to tell everyone right now that Williams goes nowhere until the Saints don't make the playoffs, which is a few years down the road. Anyone in their right mind would stay because he has a chance to go to the Superbowl the next 4 or 5 years, with someone else not for at least 4 or 5 years. You do the math.
