    I don't put much stock in run blocking, they've given up just as many hits in the backfield as open lanes.. as of last week we had the most plays for negative yards, so that includes their run "blocking"

    they are bad. at everything.

    Colts hadn't allowed a RB to top 100 yards in their last 29 games before Derrick Henry.

    Rewatched game and loved seeing Simmons literally pancake Nelson on one play....don’t see the defensive guy put the OL flat on his back very often

    I’m still very worried about Succup...clanked one extra point off the upright and had a nice little hook on another that did go through

    If I'm not mistaken, most of those came early in the season. Those plays have been fewer and fewer, and the OL has been playing better. They were poor in the first half, but made adjustments and were very good after half time.

    The Colts were blitzing hard the whole game, we made adjustments and ended up winning because of it. Isn't that what's important?

    Im sorry but this win wasnt impressive at all.

    If anything, its still a huge concern moving forward, especially now that our secondary is hurting we are in trouble.

    Defending the middle of the field seems to be an issue the Titans have struggled with as far back as I can remember. There were a ton of holes vs. the Colts and scrub WRs were running wide open.

    Slow starts for the offense seem to be another running issue. Getting more first quarter production is a must in these remaining games—even if it doesn't lead to points but pins back the opposing offense.

    I respect that Colts DL but there's no reason for the entire Titans OL to get pushed back five yards at the snap of every pass called like what happened in the first half Sunday.

    Having said all this, the Titans found a way to make enough plays on both sides of the ball in a place they notoriously suck.

    I take it but it'll take hella more the rest of the way.

    You're not wrong. That said, in years past this team lost games like this. This team scraped together a win. That alone is positive IMO. There are many areas to improve on from last week, yet they still won. They're getting in a roll at the right time.
