    I'm expecting to find we've hit that rare late rnd jackpot in Mettenberger. I think he's the real deal and he's going to bring out the best in Hunter.

    BRW & Williamson are going to be good.

    Levitre is going to get worse. I want to see Stingley at RG and Warmack at LG. It should help Warmack and Oher improve,

    I expect to see Jones get at lot more reps on the defensive front and /griffin dropped for the younger guys. We suck, lets see who's worth keeping.

    At best I expect us to beat the Jags and the Jets.

    If McCluster was to serve the role of Woodhead last season, it's no where close to happening right now. But that's the kind of thing you'd like to see develop the second half so you have something you can count on going into '15.

    I'm not concerned about Sankey. I think he's shown enough to think he'll be effective once the Titans are a more balanced offense, get better OL play and can stay close in games.

    I'm more concerned right now about how hard the team plays for Whiz then the schemes and adjustments. I need to see more intensity out there. Wycheck said it looked like the players were more focused on not blowing assignments than playing hard. He thinks they're playing timid and I can't disagree. If that's the case, then Whiz has to find some answers because, even in the Jags win and the close loss to Washington, the Titans rarely look in rhythm.

    Offense really been out of sync since first game. We played well first half of Cleveland but not good rest of time. Hopefully Mett can be the QB whiz wants and we can run whiz offense. The OL has to be better or we will be out of sync for sure. But players have to do better .

    Five keys from Wyatt:
    http://www.tennessean.com/story/sports/nfl/titans/2014/10/31/wyatt-titans-second-half/18096049/

    From the article:
    Fans are bored with these Titans. The same can be said with those who cover the team. The Titans have lost four times this season by at least two touchdowns, and twice by at least three touchdowns. Many of the games have been over by halftime. Somebody needs to bring excitement to the team by making some plays.

    I agree with Wyatt but I'll also say this team is boring in their Jags win and narrow loss to Washington. When was the last time fans had anything to be excited about?

    Extremely boring. I fell asleep on the Redskins game.

    Jags game I honestly don't even remember.

    Cowboys, Colts, and Texans game I stopped watching.

    I miss that feeling you get when it's Monday and you wake up thinking damn I can't wait till Sunday to watch my team play!

    This year, that feeling ended after about 3 weeks.

    Echo the statements of being bored. If I didn't have as much time invested in as I did, I wouldn't consider myself a fan. I already consider my fandom wavering.

    I don't have fun watching the games, none of the players are likable, I don't get the sense we are close to putting it together, the crowd/presentation is nonexistent, and I consider taking time out of my day to watch this team a waste of time.

    I expect the above from pretty much the rest of the season. I've lost complete faith in the franchise and I don't think we have anyone on payroll capable of fixing that.

    My expectations are the same as the last 8 years - hoping that through the Draft, FA's, we will have a better season next year. That "better season" just never arrives. Honestly don't know why I stick with the Titans, but if Lions fans could do it for a decade and continue I'm not the only crazy one.

    Y'all see Ayers out there balling tho??

    We gave him up for nothing.

    That's why we will continue to suck and teams like the Pats will continue to win.
