He deserves zero blame for that one. In that game the Titans were clearly the better team on both sides of the ball and mistakes just killed them. If they played a 7 game series the Titans would probably have taken it in 5. It just happened to be that the Ravens capitalized on every Titans mistake and every fluke thing and bounce went the Ravens way. The non call on the delay of game also killed them. That was brutal and pretty obvious. CreepingDeath, and pat 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omar Posted June 26, 2017 Report Share Posted June 26, 2017 I always thought the Buddy Ryan defense in '93 was the best ever. They just destroyed teams, and there was so much talent before the salary cap and free agency happened. OILERMAN, and smokeater 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It never should have gotten to that point. If Crumpler and White could hold onto the ball and they don't let a receiver make a catch on a prayer throw with 4 DB's right there the score would have been about 24-7. Tennessee totally dominated that football game. Omar 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, but it's difficult for me to put any of those defenses on a best ever list because of their perpetual playoff chokes. That is what separated JF's Super Bowl team from that era. The defense didn't choke in the playoffs. Could you imagine how the chokesters during the Warren Moon era would have handled the Indy playoff game, or the Jax game (I'm not including the Buffalo game because that was a ST miracle)? I kept waiting for disaster, but it never came. No way the Warren Moon era teams win those games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

An all time dominant defense just shouldn't let a 40 year old, broken down Montana & 34 year old Marcus Allen move the ball all over them. I put that loss squarely on Buddy. Our front 4 was just destroying them but Buddy insisted om blitzing the shit out of Montana because he wanted to knock him out of the game. He beat him up early but Montana didn't make TE big mistake then started finding the soft spots of the blitzes for huge gains. This is similar to the thread where the '01 Super Bowl was discussed , how Mike Martz refused to run Marshall Faulk while Belichick was blatantly playing the pass. Big egos costing big games. Hubris.

The Titans and Jeff Fisher get some love early in the list at 22: The Oilers are mentioned as a highlight for the Eagles at number 7: -- For all of the hate Fish gets for the end of his career, he did build a great defense early on. He paired it with an offense that worked, though I would have preferred more sparks and risks taken. And fuck the Ravens. What an ALL-STAR POST!!! Well done, my Jeepers-Creeper!!!
