Fisher Appears Safe Despite 0-6 Start

Oct 8, 2014 7:36 AM

The Titans have gone from first to worst, but coach Jeff Fisher appears to be secure for the remainder of the season. "Even if I am unhappy, you don't make changes in the middle of the season. You don't know what you might end up with," owner Bud Adams told the Tennessean of the team's coaching staff. "We'll just have to see what happens the rest of the way. I'll have to make my decision after the season is up. Who knows, we might come back and win 10 games. Then it wouldn't look so bad compared to how we started out. We have to look at the overall picture. "But right now we're not doing very well, and that worries me." Tennessee is 0-6 after going 13-3 last season.
