Tennessee Titans @ Atlanta Falcons 2nd Half Open Thread

Another pretty bad effort by the offense thus far. Fisher just said at halftime that he didn't talk to his guys about keeping their composure. He said if the Falcons keep playing after the whistle the Titans will too. That is why I love Jeff Fisher.

Hi Guys....

I thought the game was at 4:30 AM my time… but I can read that it wasn’t much of a half.

Go Titans!

Morning

You didn’t miss much good. Still better than last week tho.

I

can not believe we are tied with the freakin falcons!

Someone once said "Vince Young bleeds two toned blue!" But I disagree, because The Great One Doesnt Bleed!!

Hey

I still say we’re better than the Dolphins.

vince is 9 of 18

gotta love that 50% compeltion percentage.

50% his fault, 50% the receivers fault

If I hit a hole-in-one on this grand slam the dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate.

matt ryan looks pretty good to me

and michael turner is one Titans fans were wanting to grab. The falcons will be better this year guys. but, our passing offense is infuriating none the less.

i really hope that dinger is just saving all the plays for the regular season

looks like i gotta miss the 2nd half....

this was pretty much the 1st time I participated in a live thread.

it was fun and hopefully I can be here for the regular season.

Thanks!

Yet we’re still at the bottom of every NFL ranking by every expert out there. I guess we’ll have to roll over a couple teams early in the season if we want respect.

Yes!

I think he just locked up the starting job for the Falcons. I haven’t felt this hopeful since the 1998 Super Bowl!

I'm going to be a pessimist

Collins will make a start this season.

And it won’t be because vince is hurt.

what

happened to all of these great plays that happened in camp

by Michaeltastic on Aug 22, 2008 8:22 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs

Had a thought

We can’t throw against press coverage corners because we don’t practice against press coverage. Our defense runs Cover 2 so that’s all our QBs see in practice.

Paul Williams is done

Did you seem him just stand there and let the guy jump in front of him? That is what you get from someone who didn’t play much in college.

8 dropped balls by the titans tonight...

And Vince will take ALL the heat for it.

I can’t see the game and I know Vince didn’t throw everything perfect, but he was 9 of 18 and from what it sounded like, at least 4 of those were drops or could have caughts.

by Hook em Titans on Aug 22, 2008 8:54 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs

i'd say

vince made 2 to 4 bad throws…..

a couple of those had pressure…a couple didn’t….

at the same time eddie george is doing a side-by-side comparison on one of vince’s poor out routes to the TE versus Matt Ryans perfect out route to the TE……ryan over throws his WR’s 3 times in a row for what would have been TD’s…..but that was hardly ever brought up b/c they wanted to go back to breaking down VY’s inconsistencies……

by zackmann on Aug 22, 2008 8:59 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs

i swear, our team is so reliant on 11 solid guys

name an area of the team…..and it seems that just one key guy (sometimes a very key guy, sometimes a regular guy) missing just messes things all up…

with haynesworth, our DLine looks like an allstar team that is unstoppable
without haynseworth, we can’t hit the qb if we rush 7 and they only leave 5 in to block

with harper and hope, our secondary hardly ever makes a mistake
with either hill or lowry, our secondary can’t stop anyone

with stewart and roos, our oline provides exceptional blocking
without steward, vince had pressure all game

with a starting WR’s, we can’t catch anything
with our backup WR’s, we can’t catch anything

hehehe, our WR’s just suck anyway you slice it
