The Official Tennessee Titans thread IV

[TrueOrange]

So do we see something positive today, or is it another regression after an impressive comeback?

Who knows. They’re very up and down.

They either look good, or they get their teeth kicked in by Houston while wearing Oilers uniforms in such a way that upper management ends up never pulling out the throwbacks again for 10-15 years.

 

[TrueOrange]

Huh. I didn’t know this but apparently the Titans didn’t originally inquire the home game against Houston being their 2nd usage of their Oilers throwback uniforms, but rather the away game against the Dolphins (as Miami often wears white at home).

Tennessee Titans Unveil Houston Oilers Throwback Uniforms

The Tennessee Titans have officially unveiled their Houston Oilers throwback uniforms, which they’ll wear for two home games this season.

The Titans will announce which games the uniforms will be worn at 8 a.m. ET on July 27. They’ve inquired about wearing them for a road game against the Miami Dolphins, as well, but that appears unlikely at this time.

Tennessee Titans To Wear Oilers Throwback Uniforms Against Houston Texans

Much to the chagrin of fans in Houston, the Tennessee Titans will wear their Oilers throwback uniforms during Sunday's game against the Texans.

The uniforms made their debut in a 28-23 win over the Atlanta Falcons on Oct. 29 and nearly returned for last week’s 38-27 win at the Miami Dolphins, though the NFL ultimately denied that request.

It sounds like - with the Miami game being scheduled on Monday night game before the season started - the Dolphins (who had choice as the home team) wanted to wear their home aqua colored jerseys instead of their white ones, and the NFL’s rules on uniforms and colors contrasting enough made it so that the Oilers Blue jerseys couldn’t be used in the same game (with how close the colors are).

 

[Burhead]

Would be onboard with this.

 

[GBO18]

Bobby Trees didn’t want to block.

 

[WestTennesseeVol]

Love the effort by Levis

 

[WestTennesseeVol]

Would be onboard with this.

Meh, it’s mostly cool because it’s out of the ordinary. If it became permanent it would lose its “coolness”

 

[GBO18]

Didn’t look like it hit the ground

 

[tvolsfan]

It’s nice to have a QB who can do more than screen passes.

 

[GBO18]

WTF FOLK

 

[GBO18]

Texans going to try the Steelers strategy. No throws over 5yds.

 

[PlanetVolunteer]

Dang jet sweep killed this drive

 

[KB5252]

Not having any of our top 3 interior D lineman really shows. Getting killed up the middle.

 

[KB5252]

Need to hold them to field goal here

 

[firestorm]

The Titans won’t make the playoffs, however I’m still happy to see them gelling as a team in the Levis era that has been mostly reliable.

 

[WestTennesseeVol]

I hate how much I’m loving Levis

 

[GBO18]

This Oline is so damn bad. Miracle we have won 5 games.

 

[GBO18]

Arm strength was nice on that INT.

 

[GBO18]

Ohhhhh that was a bad INT. Free TD too.

 

[GBO18]

So predictable with the runs on 1st downs.

 

[PlanetVolunteer]

If we run another hb toss with Derrick henry, someone needs to water board Tim Kelly

What utter insanity

 

[GreveHaller]

I'm done with Henry. He is worthless

 

[GBO18]

I'm done with Henry. He is worthless

Bless your heart.

 

[PlanetVolunteer]

I'm done with Henry. He is worthless

Tim Kelly is worthless

He is totally clueless. Afraid to be aggressive because Levis may turn it over? Um HELLO, the only way we can move the ball is if we let him sling it. The screens, HB toss plays, jet sweeps KILL us. So many hopeless, predictable behind the LOS plays that kill drives.

 

[GBO18]

Missing so many tackles up the middle.

 

[GreveHaller]

Bless your heart.

everytime he touches the ball he stops then tries to start his run again. Gives the defense time to key on him.

11 carries for 2 yds = worthless
