The Tennessee Titans are 0-3: What Now?

When I say 3:1 for Collins, I really mean TD drives, not TD passes.

We need to pick up a return man this week. Justin Miller is a good option.

Jeff Fisher
On Finnegan being a possible alternative to Mouton on punts…

No. They’re playing corner, and returning, and covering kicks. Those guys got a lot of work in today and they’re going to be better off for it.

On Mouton’s fumble…

He just didn’t track the ball. He’s going to be a good corner for us and a good special teams player. Eventually, he’ll become a good returner. He just needs to settle down a little bit.

On pass protection for Kerry Collins…

I thought Kerry made plays. Kerry was under pressure and he put the ball in places at the end where we needed to make some plays. We just couldn’t come up with two or three catches.

have a shot. I am tired of ineffective play. Yes a play here or there would have made a HUGE difference. The Steelers only have one win this year. They were the Superbowl champs! What happened there?
The special teams situation HAS to change, it is unacceptable the way it is.

Bulluck is right. At 0-3, the Titans’ playoff hopes are at best on life support – only three of 96 teams since 1990 have recovered from losing their first three games to eventually make the playoffs.

"I’m not taking no shots, I’m not saying he lost the game, I’m not saying any of that," White said. "But you asked me if it’s [being] a rookie. Kenny Britt’s a rookie too, right? Is he making plays? Once we draft you and you’re on this team, you make plays."

Be careful not to fall into the trap of talking about how the Titans are still a good team because all of the losses are a play here and a play there from being wins. That is the National Football League. There are very few games in this league that are decided by more than a play here or there.

8 (potentially 10) of the games this week were determined by more than a score. In this league, the best teams beat up on the weaker teams, meaning the best teams generally rise to the top. Still, in just a 16 game season, luck plays a much bigger role than people are willing to admit. That’s not to excuse the Titans play as just “bad luck” mind you, they lost the game. Still, if the Titans are a 10-win talent team, they can easily win just 7 or 8 games over the course of the season based purely on bad luck, i.e. the sum offense and defense not being reflected in the scores. It’s random variation. I think the Titans are very talented team and by your own admission could easily be 1-2 with one less stupid decision.

Finnegan did not exactly inspire confidence when he was fielding punts. The realitites of the cap and roster size force tough decissions. the guy we cut stunk it up during pre-season. Yes mouton is the one most at fault today but not sure finnegan would have done any better. On another front in my opinion VY would have peed down his leg today against that rush. KC did not play great but had a couple of balls dropped that could have changed the flow of the game. Bottom line it is a team loss, from coaches to players.

all three games have left me with that feeling of wanting to slit my wrists…..We need to get this monkey off our back.

i have been in a crappy mood all night, plus the haters hve been blowing up my phone

ignoring the fact that we need a returner is unacceptable. its not like this crept up on us. we have seen all season that its a problem and need to get corrected by signing a FA.

LETS SIGN PAC!

he wasnt getting much help from the recievers.i counted AT LEAST 5 balls that were dropped by the WR in the 4th quarter alone.

bullsh*t

Manning leading the Colts to another big win.

After all these years, Fisher, have you still not figured out that you need a franchise QB to be a contender year-in and year-out in the modern-day NFL?

Pittsburgh even figured it out. Sheesh!

Plain and simple. No way around it.

Kerry is too old, Vince just isn’t an NFL quarterback. We need another Steve McNair.

He made a good decision (as a rookie) letting the ball go out of bounds today and getting us starting field position on our 40. Mouton made a bad decision last week (as a rookie) fielding that return instead of letting it go for a touchback.

All I know is that Fisher needs to remove Mouton from fielding returns, period. Try him out replacing an injured Vinnie, if need be, but put the returns in someone else’s hands, Jeff.

Mounton and McCourty both look like decent cover CBs. That counts for a lot. Now if we only had a return guys who actually WAS a return guy, I’d be happy.

And yo! Collins has been DREADFUL in the second half of EVERY GAME THIS SEASON. What is going on with that?

Having 4 turnovers really bites. Not many team can overcome that with a win, unless the other team turns it over just as many times, and that didn’t happen yesterday. These guys have the talent it comes down to no turnovers equals a win. IT is as simple as that.

that was the wisest commentary i have ever read," BRAVO".

The titans are going to eventually learn that you cannot win games on the cheap some players got to be retained at a reasonable cost. If this season is going to be turned around, they got to sign a veteran return man.
