The Official Tennessee Titans thread IV

[Aesius]

It's so much fun to read stuff on Twitter/reddit and see people lumping in the Titans with the other elite teams in the NFL. I'm still not used to it. Battered Titans Syndrome has me believing we're on a flukey run and are still a 3-13 team at heart.

If special teams weren’t a disaster, we probably win that game.

It's still so weird to see us having an elite offense and a struggling defense and special teams. It's always been the exact opposite...

Agree. With a defensive head coach.
Agree.

Agree. With a defensive head coach.
Agree.

And also no defensive coordinator.

 

[orangepridenation]

I don’t know why we don’t just promote Jim Haslett to DC. He has plenty of experience and was even a head coach at one point. I’m sure a lot of it is probably Vrabel’s ego, but with our struggles on that side of the ball...idk, you figure a change has gotta be made at some point.

I agree as well. I been hearing that Vrabel calls most of the defense which is kind of disappointing. I think he’s a great head coach maybe time to give his coordinator the reigns a little

I’m headed to the game this weekend

We can't afford a letdown game here. We need to take the next three before we go to Baltimore.

IMO we need at least 2 of the next three with the colts being the most important. If we’re sitting at 7-2 with a commanding lead on the division we’ll be sin the driver’s seat.

 

[gnm53108]

Sure wouldn’t complain with 8-1 tho

Fair enough. The Bears game is probably the most "acceptable" to lose.

None are acceptable. But it’s the NFL. Could lose to the Bengals, never know.

 

[Rockytoptalker]

Up to this point in the season we’ve won all of our close games (Minus last week) while the Bengals have lost or tied in all of their one possession games, other than against the Jags. I think that trend will continue with this one. Burrow will probably embarrass our secondary for most of the game, but as long as they come up with a turnover or two and our offense does their thing we should get out with the W.

Hoping somewhere down the stretch our D tightens up. Gonna need em for a deep playoff run.

Will be really surprised if we don’t win by 10+. Bengals seem like their usual dumpster fire.

I think we win but I get the feeling this will be a tight game then we’ll pull away in the 4th.

Headed to Cincinnati

 

[tvolsfan]

I'll have to leave at 3:30, so hopefully we have a good lead by this point.

My prediction as well. It's not a given that we will win.

Definitely not. No wins are really a given until our defense shows any sort of consistency.
