The Tennessee Titans split with coach Mike Mularkey on Monday after he revived a team with the NFL's worst record over two seasons and led them to their first playoff victory in 14 years. Mularkey led the Titans to back-to-back 9-7 records — their first consecutive winning records since 2007-08. In Mularkey's first full season, the Titans led the NFL scoring touchdowns inside the red zone, and they led the AFC while ranking third in rushing offense. Mariota also had its worst season yet with a career-worst 15 interceptions and 13 touchdowns. Mularkey talked about the speculation over his job security after the Titans turned in one of the NFL's biggest playoff comebacks by a road team in beating the Chiefs.
