    <em>Posted by ESPN.com's Paul Kuharsky</em> <p> Jeff Fisher, the league's longest-tenured head coach, can count staff stability among his biggest benefits. Whether you believe in Fisher or not, he appears to be a good boss. If you do good work under him, you get to enjoy stability on par with his.</p> <p><img src="http://a.espncdn.com/i/teamlogos/nfl/lrg/ten.gif" alt="" width="110" height="110" align="right" />Titans fans, I'm looking for your answer on this question:</p> <p>Who's the team's best assistant coach?</p> <p>Linebackers coach Dave McGinnis has head-coaching experience and the sort of passion that's hard not to notice while serving as a veteran sounding board for Fisher. But it looks like defensive backs coach <a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?playerId=7144" target="_new">Chuck Cecil</a> will become the new defensive coordinator.</p> <p>I'm pretty sure this debate will boil down to the team's two line coaches.</p> <p>Offensive line coach <a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?playerId=6883" target="_new">Mike Munchak</a> is in the Hall of Fame for his career as a guard, and he's repeatedly gotten players ready for their roles. His current group, among the league's best, includes two very good tackles -- All-Pro <a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?playerId=8455" target="_new">Michael Roos</a> and <a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?playerId=8527" target="_new">David Stewart</a> -- who he told the team he liked in the 2005 draft and he has helped develop them into premier talents.</p> <p>Defensive line coach Jim Washburn has sometimes been the victim of his own success. Because he has developed cheap free agents such as <a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?playerId=2582" target="_new">Kyle Vanden Bosch</a> and <a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?playerId=5480" target="_new">Tony Brown</a> and lower draft picks such as <a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?playerId=3741" target="_new">Carlos Hall</a> and <a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?playerId=2328" target="_new">Robaire Smith</a>, the Titans haven't always provided him with top-shelf talent.</p> <p>I'm curious what you think and hope you'll be heard with a comment here or in a note to <a href="http://proxy.espn.go.com/chat/mailbagESPN?event_id=21417" target="_blank">my mailbag</a>. Stay tuned for a follow-up post later in the week that sorts through what you say.</p>

    Cecil without a doubt..

    Its no coincidence 3 players from our secondary will be making an appearance at the pro-bowl.

    News is that Griffin has just made it as an alternate.
