    Basically, he says we will regress because it will take too long for the offense (mainly Vince) to adjust to Dinger's new scheme. Compares us to San Diego of last year. They started out 1-4 I think.

    Nothing insightful really.

    Supposedly the offense isn't suppose to change the play calling is. Dinger will learn the current verbage instead of VY. He does have more experience than VY does.

    (Fisher on how similar or different the Heimerdinger offense will be to the offense already in place)

    What Mike and I have talked about is that we’ve got a lot of work ahead of us as far as the playbook and the terminology. But we’re going to try to stay consistent. Vince has spent two years with this terminology, and it would be unfair to him to completely put a new system in. So it’s going to be more on Mike to utilize our terminology, then of course expand it a little but, but keep the terminology simple.

    One of the things I mentioned to Mike when he came in (for his first stint as offensive coordinator in 2000), we wanted to keep this system intact for Steve (McNair). By the time Mike left, we had a system that had fingerprints on it by two coordinators. There was some potential for some misunderstandings, and I don’t want that to happen again. Coach Chow’s system is player-friendly. So I assume that if the players can handle it, Coach Heimerdinger could also handle it.

    I can tell this is going to be one of those stupid threads that goes on forever and ever. I think the Titans fans have learned to completely take a grain of salt with what the "experts" say. We've proved them wrong, year after year.

    Degressing isn't a word.
