We saw some positive things:

-Our Defense is still good if not great.

-I think our offense was a little rusty, but once Washington and Cook gets back we’ll be even better

-Thank God Finnegan is not our permanent punt returner. Better field position would’ve meant more points.

-Bironas wont have another game like that.

I think we proved we can beat the Steelers (as long as we don’t beat ourselves… again). Watching our team last night I felt better about tough games we have coming up against the Colts and the Patriots. We have some problems, but they are fixable. And once they’re fixed we’ll be even better than last year.

ewwwwwwwwwww! lmao

Two missed FGs is inexcusable; it is time to stop making excuses for them. They cost the game. Period. A simple check of the scoreboard confirms this.

Finnegan returning punts was a disaster. No field position all night; he was even afraid to Fair Catch because he’s OBVIOUSLY not practiced at it. How many times did the Titans start inside their own 10? It was at least 5. This is not the plan.

And that’s your game. With FGs in hand, the 2nd half unfolds differently, to say the least.

Scaife’s fumble was OBVIOUSLY his payback to the team for the Franchise Tag. That was horrible. * “Ow! My knee! Here! Take the ball!”* Argh.

Sloppy play on both sides was the only thing that kept the Titans in this game at all, but as God is my witness, if they give Manning as much time as they gave Rothlesburger, he’s gonna hang AT LEAST 50 on this much-vaunted (much over-rated) defense.

We did not come and finish our unfinished business, and the cheap shot to Scaife’s knee should also be considered for the eerie parallels.

There is only one reason you aim your helmet at someone’s kneecap. And it is not to knock the ball loose.

…and now I am even more pissed than I was. Because he is absolutely right. Here we are, eight months and five pre-season games later, and the Titans drop a totally winnable game because of stupid special teams execution errors! It really was the Baltimore game all over again, and what makes it worse is the way they’re saying, “See! The D-Line is GREAT! No Problem!”

Say what?

What I saw was a D-Line that was OKAY up until it mattered, and then they couldn’t do shit. Meanwhile, the much-vaunted Bironas comes to camp out of shape, misses some time, and proceeds to screw kicks all over the place.

It’s freakin’ inexcusable! Where the Hell is the accountability on this team? These little mistakes are the very reason these guys come up a damned yard short every year. This year’s looking to be no different and probably a lot less impressive than last year was.

Long time reader, 1st time posting…But game looked good…We should have no problems going to playoffs….only bad thing about game was the announcers…They need to get off Pitts nuts

Are you ready to rock?

So Manning is a great QB no doubt. But I dont think hes as tough as Ben. I hate them both and manning even more (I despised him as a vol too). He gets hit like Hayes hit him and he might be done for the game who knows. I think our secondary can hang man to man with there recivers just need to get more pressure on him and not give him time to read the play. And mix up the formations before the play.

But back to collinsworth. He was all Pitt. I think whole game he made one positive comment on the Titans and that was CJ speed and that was it. He was all over Troy P thats why im really glad he got taken out cause then he could start spending more time talking about the game. Michaels did a good job. And when they showed them in the booth collinsworth allways had this huge s@&t eating grin on his face.
