the team looked better than i thought they would. though that probably tells you how low my expectations were. not sure if it’s me being too partial or not, but i thought the 2 roughing the passer calls were crap, especially the one on Ford. i wish the league would just put some damn flags on the QBs skirts and use that to determine a sack if they’re going to be calling $hit like that.

I just read the last story there, its interesting that teams coaches who have more wins than the titans do, are more in danger of losing their jobs than fisher is. Why is he immune from any of this discussion.
Since the season is pretty much over, unless the impossible happens, has anyone though about who the titans may draft with out first and 3rd round picks?

0-5?!? Really!?!? ZERO-AND-FIVE?!?!
I never would have believed this before the season started — NEVER.

There are so many things that just sum it all up in a sad way. Some examples have been given above. My anecdote is this: When the Defense/Special Teams was playing well and forcing turnovers, what did the Offense do? Settled for field goals - never even thought about going for it (no matter what the situation) on fourth-and-short. Then, eventually, the defense reverted back to its 2009 “bend and break” form, and the Colts pulled away.

Every time a team gives us a chance to deliver a haymaker this year, we settle for a jab. Then we put-up our gloves over our faces and hope we can run-out the full 12 rounds without getting knocked-out. It’s not working.

There has to be an adjustment made along the way by our staff – they have to prove they are capable of winning games again without the #1 defense in the NFL, and without having the luxury of being ahead for the last ten minutes of every game. This is what coaching is all about — finding ways to win when you otherwise might not. It seems our strategy is simply to keep doing what isn’t working until it finally starts working. I think we’d be better off right now trying to FIND things that work

For example: against the Colts, LenDale was working; Chris Johnson was not. The early blitzes were working; going back to permanent base defense was not. Washington as a downfield threat may work, but he’s not doing well as a “possession receiver.”

Other examples of trying things to see if they work: Britt has the most upside of anyone in the WR corps, and should probably be starting at 0-5. You know the arguments in favor of Vince at this point. How about some creative, non-vanilla offensive plays from Mike H.? Even our play-action these days looks half-hearted. Perhaps a more aggressive defensive scheme, if only for a little while – say, tweaking the base defense with some additional blitzing?

It just seems now like the staff has this idea that if we ram the iceberg really, really, REALLY hard this time, maybe this time the iceberg will sink instead of the ship. Maybe, just maybe, it might be a better idea this year to find alternate routes to point B than through the iceberg?

We hear a lot from Fisher about who isn’t “the problem:” Cecil, Collins, Gage, etc. Maybe not being “the problem” is no longer good enough justification for not finding-out if there are better options available in the future.
