I mis-typed earlier; LINK reports Rocker is the top candidate for DL coach. He has not been hired (yet). My apologies...

well, munchak may not make it to 2013, so he could be looking for a job anyway... and it's not as if the titan's from four has set the world on fire. I wouldn't be surprised if Rocker isn't looking for a place to land in a few weeks, regardless of MM's status in TN.

Not for the same position in college.

i'm not sure rocker's style is suited for the NFL... he's more of a motivator type -- getting young guys to live up their potential and play every down.

I'm not necessarily his biggest fan... I thought we underperformed in 09, but he did a great job with Fairley in 2010... we'll see.

the in-your-face stuff just doesn't work on most professionals, I would imagine... and I don't think he's the most technically sound DL coach out there.

Maybe TR realizes that and could come back?... IDK... if I were him, i'd keep options open and let the next 5 weeks play out.
