    Randy Bullock needs replaced. He isn't garbage, but he should not be the primary FG Kicker for a team trying to make a deep playoff run.

    DL looks dominant. May not miss Landry at all with the Weaver is playing. We were in Daniels face all game.

    LBs played poorly against the run. Hopefully not a harbinger of things to come. I know SaQuon can be elite when healthy, but he had several holes that you could drive a truck through.


    Tanne looked really good with a new group of WRs and TEs. That last pass to Phillips to set up the game winning FG attempt was legit amazing. He had another pass to Phillips earlier in the game that he threaded the needle on. My faith in him has been restored for now.

    Henry had some good runs, but didn't seem like he was getting the YAC he normally gets. That's concerning given he's around the age RB's start falling off. He's credited with 50 YAC so maybe I'm wrong. But that's why this is an overreaction thread.

    2022 draft class look like studs. Could end up being 2019-esque. Petit was our 2nd highest rated OL per pff. Burks, Philips, and McCreary were each listed on PFF's week 1 top performing rookies.

    Downing needs to be fired, but I don't know that anyone we'd relieve him with mid-season would be much better, if at all.

    This seems pretty reasonable and not an overreaction at all.

    Henry ended with 82 yards which is pretty good. Would have liked to see him get a couple more RZ carries since the RZ O stalled a couple times. He also had a couple good runs called back which I believe would have had him over 100. Think they were mostly untouched which I’d almost prefer to YAC yards.

    The young guys played well, hope that continues.
    Also agree on weaver, but I think whoever is behind big Jeff and Autry will do well.
    The THill throw to Phillips at the end was one of his best throws as a titan.
    Bulluck was already a shaky K. 2/3, missing games the GW, means another K has to be searched for.

    Last:
    Stonehouse. F’n Stonehouse. THAT is a steal.

    Just posted the video for “dumb decisions” on the Downing thread. That play is it and even outside Nashville, everyone knows it was a terrible play call.

    If they don't do something soon, Downing (and Vrabel for keeping him) will be to blame for the destruction of something that could've been great.

    Idk about out coached but stupid play calls played a role but the biggest reason we lost was we stopped with what was working on offense and took our foot off the gas. When you take your foot off of the opponents throat you start to play to lose at that point.
