Does that mean Tennessee Titans are now “Texas’ team”???

Bum made lots of statements he could not back up.

Remember: “This year we knocked on the door; next year we’ll kick it in.”

(Preceding another annual whacking by Cincinnati, Pittsburgh etc.)

True -- but I don't think he was ever out-coached on the field. The Oilers simply didn't have as much talent as a lot of other teams when he was coaching them. Other than Dan Pastorini, I can't even remember who else played QB on those "Luv Ya Blue" teams.

Bum Phillips was the most entertaining NFL head coach of his generation. LOL.

P.S. -- Houston did get robbed of a game-tying TD in that 1980 AFC championship game against Pittsburgh on the infamous blown call of the Mike Renfro TD catch.

Wrong. He wasn’t there the next year. He was fired right after he made that promise.
