    dont disagree. Just think Vrabel would view the Pats as “coming hone”.

    I sorta disagree. A great coach has his players ready so they don't make multiple mistakes and/or can overcome them against inferior opponents. The Titans looked to be just going through the motions yesterday—especially in the first half when it was dry.

    No excuse to get hit by a punt. None.

    If your QB is sailing balls over the heads of open receivers and throwing multiple picks only down by 6 in a pouring rain, you find ways to protect the football by throwing short to the TE or dump off to RBs. End around with a WR. More designed QB runs. You get the idea.

    Obviously, there are no guarantees that anything changes the outcome and the playbook is somewhat limited based on the players on the field but, IMO, the mark of a great coach is how they succeed under bad circumstances.

    It was raining for the Texans too wasn't it?
    Our injuries aren't helping ..the Texans fully healthy are a better team than our backups or 3rd stringers
    But...the staff needs to prepare them regardless...Tannehill was terrible .AJ is looking soft..maybe he misses his idol Julio and needs to be with him??

    How is the punt returner getting hit by a punt Vrabel’s fault?

    We’ve had bad circumstances damn near every game this year and we are 8-3

    I just have to reiterate the example of bad coaching as pointed out by TitanJeff.

    WTF was Rodgers doing on that punt, GTFO of the way! Starting with the ball inside the 5 is better than giving the opponent the ball on the 5. Then Vrabel puts him out there again? Seriously? I don’t give a damn who it is. He didn’t deserve to be right back on the field for punts. Vrabel really does coddle his players, he’s nothing like Bellecheat.

    We came out immediately ran up tempo offense. We ran it multiple times that game. We went for it 4 times on 4th down. IMO the coaching staff did what they could to try and spark life into the offense. Was just poor execution all day.

    Some questionable play calls from Downing but also some bad execution from Ryan and the offense.

    Defense has intensity all day long. Don’t buy the argument, sorry.

    Intensity doesn’t win football games, execution does. They were clearly unprepared.

    I would’ve attempted a couple FGs, would’ve given them a chance to possibly close the multiple possession lead at the end.

    Maybe you should read the comments in this thread. Everyone is complaining that we didn’t have intensity and that’s Vrabel’s fault.

    Unprepared? Lmao we had 5 turnovers. We didn’t lose because a lack of preparation. In fact we dominated statistically We held the Texans to under 200 yards total offense and had over 400 yards of offense ourselves.

    Who else are we going to put out there? All the other options were hurt

    not sure I believe it but that is the official positon


    Like the jets game I believe the Titans are doing 'load management' on the down low & they got 2 Ls for it


    like my opinion man
