Report: Ray Horton to interview for Titans head coaching job

Josina Anderson of the NFL Network is reporting that Ray Horton will interview for the Titans head coaching job on Saturday.

I'm told that #Titans defensive coordinator Ray Horton is scheduled to interview for the team's head coaching vacancy Saturday.

This is an interesting turn of events. For now I am going to take this as a good sign. The Titans are interviewing more than just the 3 guys, Mike Mularkey, Doug Marrone and Teryl Austin, that were initially reported. They wouldn't have to do that if they were already settled on hiring Mularkey.

This also gives them some time to see who gets eliminated from the playoffs this weekend. That will open up their candidate pool as the coaches from those teams can be interviewed next week. My gut tells me that if we make it through the weekend without an announcement that Mularkey has been hired he won't be the head coach next year.
