Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Vrabel is known to get a tad spicy from time to time. However, it’s sounding like he might be a bit frustrated with how the offense is struggling in the passing game. After yet another contest of the offense struggling, the head coach may have taken a shot at general manager Jon Robinson.
Titans HC Mike Vrabel May Have Called Out GM Jon Robinson
According to Ed Werder, Vrabel had quite an eye-opening response when asked about Derrick Henry’s usage. The Titans head coach states, “We’ve been able to use him and he’s helped us win a lot of games since I’ve been here. I don’t [know] what else we would do – throw it 50 times? I mean, who the (bleep) would we throw it to?”
Asked Mike Vrabel sustainability of Derrick Henry taking 26-plus carries every game. “We’ve been able to use him and he’s helped us win a lot of games since I’ve been here. I don’t what else we would do _ throw it 50 times? I mean, who the (bleep) would we throw it to?’’

During the offseason, Titans general manager Jon Robinson traded AJ Brown to the Philadelphia Eagles. Mike Vrabel was visibly upset with the deal during the NFL Draft. Since then, the wide receiver room has been lackluster, to say the least. Especially considering they hauled in just one catch against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday night.
It’s hard to move the ball down the field when the passing game is non-existent. The Titans have struggled to acquire talent in the wide receiver room and offensive line. Anybody would struggle at quarterback in this offense right now. Hopefully, the team can figure things out in the offseason, as Derrick Henry needs help out there.
