Titans fans give Mike Borgonzi’s offseason a B-plus grade, with 91% landing at B or higher
A community poll of Tennessee Titans supporters shows broad approval for the team’s offseason work, as fans say they were largely satisfied with the direction of the roster after last season.
Tennessee Titans fans have largely endorsed the team’s offseason process, according to a new fan grading exercise published by Yahoo Sports. The focus of the evaluation was Mike Borgonzi, with the question centered on whether fans believed his roster-building work improved the team since the season ended.
In the poll results, 91% of respondents said Borgonzi deserved at least a B for his offseason work. That means only a small portion of fans landed below the middle-to-upper range, suggesting a strong majority viewed the offseason as either solid or better rather than disappointing.
The grading matters less as a scoreboard of specific transactions and more as a read on expectations. An NFL offseason is often judged in two ways, whether the moves address the team’s primary needs, and whether they position the roster for the next step in the standings. A result like this implies that many fans felt the Titans addressed enough concerns to justify optimism heading into training camp and the regular season routine that follows.
Borgonzi, as the personnel figure at the center of the grading, was the name fans were asked to evaluate. While fan polls cannot validate whether every move will translate into wins, they can reflect whether the changes made sense in context, whether the overall team construction feels coherent, and whether the direction matches what supporters hoped to see after last year.
It is also a reminder that NFL fandom often separates “grade” from “final outcome.” Fans may reward process, effort, and roster logic even before results are known. Conversely, some fans may reserve judgment until the season shows whether the offseason created a functional roster, particularly on the kinds of details that typically determine late-game performance and consistency.
For Titans fans and the organization, the next test will be straightforward. The offseason grade can set the tone, but only on-field performance will define how that confidence holds. The key development to watch now is whether the roster changes, whatever their individual merits, translate into improved competitiveness as the team moves from offseason work to actual games.
