Titans coach Brian Callahan not fazed by fans calling for firing - ESPN

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The frustration is building for Tennessee Titans fans after another disappointing loss — a 41-20 loss to the Indianapolis Colts — put the team's record at 0-3.

Fans began to chant, «Fire Callahan,» as coach Brian Callahan and his team went into the locker room down 20-6 at halftime. It was impossible for Callahan not to hear the chants accompanied by boos as he approached the tunnel. But Callahan said he's not fazed by it.

«I don't really worry about that to be honest,» Callahan said after the game. «My focus is on trying to make sure our football team is in as good a place as possible and the rest of that stuff is what it is. I don't think about those things, and you really can't. I mean this is hard enough as it is to put those other things and think about that. It doesn't do anybody any good. So, I just go to work and work as hard as I can. I put as much effort as I can into this and that is what it is.»

Callahan, in his second season as the Titans' coach, has a 3-17 record.

Callahan's offense was facing a fourth and one at the Colts' 39-yard line with 46 seconds left in the first half. Indianapolis called a timeout to stop the clock so they could attempt to add to their lead before halftime. Callahan was unsure if he wanted to go for it or kick a field goal so he called a timeout when play resumed.

The indecisiveness led to a delay of game penalty that cost Tennessee five yards, stretching Titans kicker Joey Slye's field goal attempt from 57 yards to 62. Slye missed the kick, and the Colts took over at the Titans' 38-yard line. Indianapolis drove 30 yards in 37 seconds to set up Shane Shrader's 36-yard field goal to complete the six-point swing.
