Be careful what you wish for
You play….to win…..the game.
-Coach Edwards
Yeah, what did mettenberger get TN?
We’ve done the experiment of throwing trash out there. We “tanked” for Mariota.
The result was like 99% of “tanks”.
the rare occasion the tanking seemed to work (can’t confirm they tanked) was Luck (literally) and can easily be attributed coincidence much more so than the idea of tanking working.
Thank you. Been meaning to post the same opinion.
3 years in a row Tanney does not really play in the preseason and 3 ugly opening games in an L. He seems to need preseason. It is just one game but he was terrible yesterday. Not using Derrick Henry in a field goal game is criminal.
Tannehill will not be starting in the 2024 preseason for the Titans.
I was only talking about 1st rounders. However, new GM. I’m not painting him with the same brush.
Easiest target to blame and definitely pulled the most noticeable errors.
In a 1 point game, there are many things that could have changed the outcome to a victory even with THill replicating his game.
for starters, the blown fumble call and the blown DPI call that resulted in a INT.
handing the ball off to Henry in the second half.
a HC going for it on 4th vice kicking the FG.
a secondary that stops a third and long to give their offense a chance.
a catch by 1st round WR.
1 point game can be changed with 1 play.
edit: I recognize there will definitely be stupid people to come attack THill more to me because of this post. I will point out now, that nothing I’ve said, although true, is defense for THill.
needed the edit, some people are incapable of understanding this.
OMG did you really just say that? Didn't think I'd ever see the day you would blame a Titans player for a loss.
Figured you would blame the smell of the air in New Orleans
HurrayTitans you're one of the best posters on here and I respect you, but this game is solely placed on Giraffe neck who wears #17.
Had we had a competent QB, we win this game easily.
It's not just the awful 3 INTS by that QB who wears #17, but it also boils down to the wide open TD to Chig and the possible TD to Spears. He literally missed them both.
There's no defending the Giraffe here Bro.
I watched him play quite a bit when he was in college. I’m not pretending to be an NFL talent evaluator… he threw a lot of bad interceptions and he tended to make bad decisions under pressure. So that’s what I’m basing it on
Glad I made that edit at the end then.
not defending him.
pointing out the numerous individual things that could have changed the outcome of a 1 point game.
The defense deserves zero blame for the loss. 9 teams held their opponent to 16 points or less in yesterday’s games. Those teams went 8-1. Yep, we are the one.
Tannehill sucked and deserves all the criticism that he’s getting. But, Vrabel and Kelly are just as, if not more so, responsible for the loss. It’s like they both got really high at halftime and forgot what they were supposed to be doing. And the refs. Vrabel, Kelly, and whoever blew that whistle deserve to be publicly excoriated for their stupidity.

T17 did not jump for that TD pass to kickstand
T17 dropped that third down conversion to burks
T17 kept getting blown backward into the QB nurffing the passing lanes
T17 benched DH22
T17 decided to kick that late FG instead of going for 4th and 5
T17 failed to call defensive holding and PI at the 5 yard line resulting in a deflected INT
T17 did not have a great game... but he was not alone
Unfair to count points against our defense after that block punt TBH.
