Every clip comes with conversation at Red's Classic Barber Shop downtown.
Monday a lot of that discussion centered around what the Titans should do with head coach Mike Munchak.
"I think he needs to go, all the way from the top and completely rebuild the whole franchise," said fan Jonathan Griffin. "It was just one of those seasons I hope to forget."
Griffin is among those who hoped to see the coach dismissed.
Chase Moore felt owner Bud Adams did the right thing in firing Executive Vice-President Mike Reinfeldt instead.
"Team and organization as stagnant as the Titans are any change will presumably be an improvement over the status quo," said Moore.
The status quo hasn't been all that profitable for karla and Charlie Greer this year.
They sell cotton candy outside every home game but sales dropped as fewer people were interested in watching a team that wasn't going to the playoffs.
"The crowds are smaller," said Karla Greer. "We're not making the money that we normally do if they win."

Federal judge dismisses charter school suit
May 22, 2013 22:10 GMT
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- A federal judge has dismissed a lawsuit against the Metro Nashville Board of Education brought by a charter school that was ordered to be closed because of poor student performance.
The Metro School Board voted in November to shut down Smithson Craighead Middle School because the charter school ranked among the worst academic performers in the state and was losing enrollment.
Afterward, the school and parents filed a class action lawsuit against the board of education arguing that the board violated their due process and equal protection rights.
On Wednesday, U.S. District Judge Kevin Sharp dismissed the lawsuit, rejecting the parents' claim that they would be forced to send their children to inferior schools and denying that the charter's rights were violated.
