    After watching the Titans play against the Texans twice this year, it was pretty obvious they weren't the juggernaut their record suggested. Those games should have been one sided blowouts in favor of Tennessee. Tennessee needs an upgrade at the QB position because if you go into playoffs and you consistently have the worst starting QB on the field you're not going to consistently win games. Tannehill will get you by when you're playing Wentz, Tyrod, Mills, Trevor, but eventually you're going to get burned by his play when you go up against elite QB's and you ask him to keep pace.

    Sorry Dman, but Henry was ineffective, tentative, and lacked burst. Exactly what one would expect from a RB coming back from a serious foot injury and the amount of time he missed.

    I give Henry credit, he again gutted it out, but the coaching staff should have put the game on Foreman's shoulders when it became clear that Henry just wasn't truly ready to go.

    For Foreman to only have 4 carries and be in for only 11/53 plays is mind boggling short sited of Vrabel and Co. They got a shiny toy back and got tunnel vision.

    They will take the plate out eventually.

    He never got a chance to build up his speed. Bengals game planned to stop the run and force our QB to beat them.

    Same sh*t different day.

    The play calling last night was really bad as well. He has to go if we are gonna take the next step. No excuse for that quick passing call at the 10 after we were running all over them, and also the two calls on 3rd and 1 at the end were atrocious.

    He looked fine. Bengals sold out to stop the run. He started to get hot in the middle of the game but never really had a chance to get to the 2nd level.

    After a nights sleep I'm not mad any more. I just turned all of my Game App subs off and ready to move into the offseason. I will watch the Chiefs and Bills game tonight but after that I'm done. If there is a change at OC they will have to fire Downing quick because of where that hiring is right now. So we'll know pretty quick if they retain him or not. as far as Tanne, won't know anything until the next league year starts in March.

    Tannehill isn’t going anywhere. 58 million in dead cap money. No team is gonna trade for that contract. Tannehill is the QB for next season and probably next 2.

    Vrabel will obviously be extended, but his seat went from frosty cold to a little tingle of warmth after another embarrassing home playoff loss.

    People need to remember, Vrabel was brought in with the expectation that he would take a good Titans team and make them a great one (i.e. go further and do better in the playoffs than Murlakey could ever have done). In the regular season, Vrabel has been great (41-24), but his post season record is now 2-3, with his home record being 0-2.

    This is guy who proudly proclaimed that he would not be coaching a team that runs into 8 man boxes consistently because that is stupid. That line did not hold up well as that has been his offensive philosophy during entire tenure. To me, Vrabel is starting to show some signs of being Jeff Fisher 2.0.

    If Tannehill has a repeat performance next season, I think there is a strong possibility Robinson will find a replacement. I think the cap hit, while crappy, is much more manageable (i think it would be about 20 Mil)
