    Had a couple of tough catch and runs and had another play where he played db and saved a potential interception. Also got wide open once, but Tammy threw it 5 feet over his head.

    All and all, a pretty nice game.

    This was the first game this season that I was able to watch the Titans on a regular TV screen (been watching them on a tablet app for the other games). Folks I watched the game with were bullish on our chances today, but as a three decades plus long fan of this team I cautioned them that I have become used to being "disappointed" by this team when it counted. Today was a great example of this.

    By the numbers, we did fairly well. Tannehill started slow, but played well in the second half. AJ Brown is going to be a stud IMO (if he stays healthy). Henry was tough, although he had to play in a lower gear today due to the hammy IMO. Defense was ok, but we had no answers for Watson....(who does though).

    I put 70ish% of this on our coaching....I am sorry, but in the second quarter, after Derek Henry was gashing the Cow D for 8+minutes to get first and goal on the 3 yard line, why in the H@#& do you call a pass play? Yeah, the fumble was unfortunate, but why not just keep feeding Henry there??? IMO that completely changed the game, and we never recovered from that.

    At any rate, we have the Saints next week (tough game), and the Cows at home after that, Our prospects of making the postseason took a very serious hit today. After the season we need to take a hard look at our OC IMO....then, also, as discussed by others, we need to move on from Succop. 1-6 on FGs is just not acceptable at any level of play here.

    Agreed on Casey. Outside of a few plays here and there, he has been a nonfactor all season. I think with Simmons, we have to remember that he came back from an ACL injury much earlier than expected. I want to see how he does next year as a pass rusher because from what i've seen so far, he can really push lineman back with authority.

    I distinctly remember the Titans tying the game at 14-14 with 13 mins left... 100% came back from horrible first half - yet again.

    only to fold on D like a bunch of punks once the comeback happened... pathetic

    Should have had 3 maybe 6 points before half even with the TO.
    Sucks**t got blocked then Vrabel wouldn’t even let him (or any other K) try for the 55 yarder.
    He opted for the terrible fake punt.

    I agree... but it was winnable AND a well played game.

    A bounce or 2 the other way and Titans are in the driver's seat.

    Yep, Titans did what they do every season, **** the bed. I can't imagine how many points Brees and Co. will put up on this defense next week.

    Yea.
    They played well enough to win. A bad bounce on an INT and a s**t kicking game cost us.
