    Yup no excuse at all. The Texans were 1-8 for a reason. Tyrod is a serviceable backup QB, only 1 receiving threat in Cooks and we let ourselves go down 19-0 at home.

    You'd think an 8-2 team playing at home even with the offense playing bad, the defense playing very bad in the first half and numerous injuries, you would still find a way to win this game no matter what.

    This team got super cocky and it backfired.

    I hate 'any given Sunday.' It's an excuse. 'Any given Sunday' applied to each and every one of the Texans opponents this season. And what was the Texans record coming into today? Was it 50/50? I mean, if 'any given team' can win against 'any' opponent on 'any' Sunday, then statistically speaking EVERY team should finish EVERY season at 8 wins and 8 losses. No, I reject that. A team loses for any number of variables. Poor on-field performance. Poor coaching. Poor drafting. Poor ownership. All of the above. The Texans came into today with a losing record because over the course of this season, their on-field performances had been worse than the majority of teams they played. Their coaching had been worse than the majority of teams they played. Today the Titans lost because their on-field performance was worse than a team whose record was worse than theirs. The Titans coaching was worse than theirs. We had injuries. Who cares. Our coaching staff should adjust their gameplan and strategies based on WHO WE ARE PUTTING ON THE FIELD, NOT who we don't have available. RB Foreman for example is running up and down the field, so we get to a 3rd and short, and our COACHING pulls him from the game. Because as we've seen and complained about all season, when you get to 3rd down your 3rd down RB HAS to be in the game no matter the context. Screw the hot hand. Screw the momentum. The sacred playbook MUST be preserved.

    whew, sorry, rant over...

    I'd tune in and tune back out numerous times during the second half. (Working on a start up biz)

    I'd get excited as we'd be moving the ball, then Tannehill would throw an INT, Fitz would have the ball taken away, Tannehill would throw incomplete on 4th, Tannehill throws a pick. It was crazy- I'd say "that's ball game" and tune out, only to get sucked in again thinkning we had a chance and get trucked with disappointment on each drive. It was crazy how classic Titans that was.

    Will be interesting to see who will be the odd man out. I think Hilliard gets to stay as he is a good receiver out the backfield and also brings the ability to play KR.

    I think it will be Foreman, which will be ****ed up, because he looks really good to me.

    We could get Tannehill’s production at QB for much cheaper and spend that money elsewhere.

    Our offense was one of the top units in the league before Henry’s injury. Idk what y’all are talking about lol

    We lost the game in the first half before losing aj and Johnson. Poor effort by the entire team. Having said that, we are absolutely screwed if those 2 miss time. We have one reliable target now and that's Westbrook-ikhine. Dez is improving, but 2 picks to targets of him. The endzone one looked like PI, but the 2nd? He didn't even run a route that looked like anything.

    Tannehill wasn't good, we needed to run more. It was actually working.
