    QB - Mariota. Wow. What can you say? Incredible performance from our young, poised QB. There is no doubt we have a special player here, and watching him grow for the next 10 years is going to be an absolute pleasure.

    RB - YES Mularkey!! U see that Whis? Stick to ONE guy.. Andrews runs like a fridge! Excellent job running the ball today. Still ran McCluster a few too many times for my liking but this was better than Whis ever did with the running game.

    WR - Not a ton of production from this group today but all had their key moments. Douglas really grew into the game and Hunter with a huge TD catch; nice to see that. DGB had his best game, kudos AGAIN to Mularkey for giving him an opportunity!! Mostly easy routes but he did a ton after the catch. Should get his confidence up.

    TE - Very productive performance from Mularkey's group. Walker is just a total animal (what a FA signing) and Fasano and Stevens came up big as well.

    OL - Where Mularkey deserves most credit. After an embarrassing performance last week, this group was SO much better today. NO sacks, not that many QB hits or pressures either, and a relatively good job in the run game. Special props to Bell doing a great job at RT, Looney holding his own at LG(still want to see what Poutasi can do at LG) and the rookie Gallik at C.

    DL - Had some trouble dealing with NWO good group up front but as the game went on, we were able to generate more pressure and stifle Brees a little.

    LB - Not much to say here, Woodyard made some good plays.

    DB - This group started out rough but again, kudoos to a group that dealt with THREE injuries today. Guys like Riggs & Webb came in and held their own. Major props to those guys. Horton and LeBeau put them in as good of a position as possible.

    Want to tip my hat to Jason Michaels also. Very successful first game as an OC. None of us liked that 3rd down draw to McCluster right before the missed FG but I can kinda understand the thinking. Surely NWO was defending the 7-10 yard pass, if McCluster rails off 5 yards, it's an easy FG; heck if he gets ONE more yard, Succop makes that FG (he missed it by 6 inches). So yes, I still don't like the call, but it really could have worked out if it goes for 2-5 more yards, which was very possible.

    Besides that, Michaels called an excellent game and did a lot of things for Marcus that Whisenhunt never did.

    And props to the head guy COACH MULARKEY on getting his first win with this squad!! A few more like that and that interim title will disappear.

    haven't been by in a while because I thought the rest of the season wasn't worth watching and for some reason didn't think Mularkey could pull something off like this given his past at Buffalo/J'ville but man was I wrong!!! Whiz was one of my uncle's buddies from the Steelers but yeah don't care GO MULARKEY!! GO TITANS!! WOOOO

    I actually didn't mind that considering had they literally picked up 1 yard that game may have not even gone into overtime.

    Admittedly though, initially I was like wait did we run the same exact play 3 times lol...maybe we were trying to to catch them off guard by making them think we didn't have the balls to run the same play back to back like that lol...
