If anyone said the Titans are a boring team they can't say that after this terrific win.

A chiefs big choke and a great Titans comeback win is priceless.

I don’t know. Brady isn’t the same this year and with that ESPN article tensions will be high there.

I thought about that after I posted that but still, they’re so consistent up there. I do think if the offense comes to play it we can hang with them and maybe even win but Brady isn’t gonna beat himself

The best defense is a good offense.
Win top including Henry running the ball has a great game so Brady is off the field.
It could remain a decent close game if the Titans have those 2 advantages.

How is the way Roethlisberger and Pittsburgh handled us passing in November (40-17) in what will likely now also be below freezing weather a lot better?

Not that I’m pushing for either matchup right now, but the Pats are about 20th in run defense (closer to KC’s 25th) and 30th in pass defense compared to Pittsburgh’s top 10 rush defense (and top 5 pass defense).

All I’m saying is while neither matchup is going to be favorable for us, Brady is almost guaranteed money this time of year. I just think we can beat Pittsburgh, We didn’t play our best game against Pittsburgh earlier this season. If this team could put together and entire game like they did the 2nd half this evening they can play with anybody.

The Steelers game was a meltdown in the 2nd half after the Titans last score while the Titans outplayed the Chiefs in the 2nd half.
A rematch with the Steelers would be great.

Plus Titans would have some familiarity vs the Steelers because since they did play them in the regular season..

I'm confident the Titans can play a full game and defeat the Steelers.

That 2nd half was a thing of beauty tonight. We have to put a complete game on the field against either team we will face next weekend. Henry, while he had a couple of blunders, whether it be pass protection or the one fumble he had, impressed me tonight. Those mistakes are going to happen from a guy that isn’t used to being the feature back. Time of possession against a team that is better than you, like you said, is key. If we can win that I think we have a decent shot

I agree with this. While we were dominated in the first half, we dominated when it mattered. I’ll say this, I don’t think necessarily Mularkey has to go, I think he’s been decent enough over the last two years. I’d give him a shot to make an OC change though

So according to Paul Kuharsky, Mularkey said during hist post game press conference he still doesn't have any assurances from the ownership after the win tonight.

That or maybe it was more rumors than actual issue?

I kind of doubt this is any sort of a “1993 ultimatum” for the franchise.

I know I will get flamed for this.


I appreciate that the ownership is serious about winning, but man I feel bad for Mularky. That can’t be a good way to work. Once we got back to pounding the ball the offense looked right. Henry ran like we know he could.

If Mularkey didn't want the criticize he shouldn't have hired Terry Robiskie. He is going to have to go in another direction at the OC position after our season ends if he wants to keep his job long term.

The best coaching I've seen from Mularkey these past two years have been the past two weeks where he doesn't need a coat in sub freezing weather because his seat is so hot

Per Hutton if we play the Pats we'll play Saturday night, if we play Pittsburgh it'll be Sunday afternoon.

Watching the Henry post game interview and all I could think about was the sports interview scene in bedazzled

He’s still not Brady. I’d much rather face Pittsburgh

Why? Pitt is better than NE in basically every way this year and should have beat NE if not for a BS call that should have been a TD. Pitt has better play makers on offense and a much better defense. NE has been pretty susceptible to teams like the Titans in the past. Teams that run the ball well and have a mobile QB. Our type of offense (when running well) takes the ball out of Brady's hands.

It's been a pretty weak year for QBs though. That isn't to say that Brady hasn't been great, but compared to previous seasons, it's definitely a notch below. Also, since week 12 this year, Brady has struggled a little bit.
