Overall, yes. However, our 5th overall pick has been injured much of the year. One of our starting safeties for a good bit of it, too. Our main RB appears injured...not sure! But yeah, overall, we've been pretty fortunate. Damn shame about losing Jones though. He was playing well.

This really isn't a fair statement.  They won their division 3 years in a row after firing Marty.

Has there been a team that pissed away opportunities more than the Chargers in the last 12 years or so?  I feel like they could have easily won the Super Bowl in both 2006 and 2009 if not for the boneheaded play by the DB on the Brady INT and then losing at home to Mark Sanchez and the Jets.  Still one of the worst playoff losses in recent memory.

These are the guys who would complain that we only won the Super Bowl by one point. I think the offense could use some work but if we just face facts that this is supposed to be a "boring" offense that gets the job done everyone would be a lot better off.

That drafted a wide receiver with the 5th overall pick, traded up in the 3rd round to draft another, and also drafted a tight end also in the 3rd round?

 

Something doesn't compute there...

We have been lucky.  Our #1 receiver missed time preseason, then missed half the season with injuries.  Our QB missed a game.  Murray has been hampered and Walker to with hammies.  Matthews out.  Decker dinged up.  Missing our #1 wr is a huge injury even though he hasn't shown anything.  Just picture him with 650-800 yards and 6TD at this point.  We expected a season of highlight catches like his catch against Oakland.

I think we all agree that they've been underwhelming in the wins.

 

However, if they win the division or get a wild card do you know what would happen if they fired Mularkey?  The national media would rip the Titans.  How do you fire a coach after taking a team from 3-13 to 9-7 and then to the playoffs? Blah blah blah. And if they don't fire him and instead extend him the narrative will be that the Titans were lucky and that ownership is okay with mediocrity.  Damned if you do damned if you don't.

See McAdoo. 11-5 playoffs previous year next year bye bye.

Jesus talk about a letdown. It's almost like he even knows he stinks, his body language is awful.

Prior to the Pitt game I was watching the WRs warming up. They were all dancing and having a great time and then there was Davis. He looked shy and reserved. Just screamed lack of confidence to me.

He's just a different personality, and also a rookie.

Better players dont change our offensive philosophy

Mariota isn't the target because there are more obvious ones, enabled by the fact the entire offense sucks and there's only a few things than encompass an entire offense. Or it could just be everyone individually struggling despite being put in good situations. Something something simplest explanation being right.

Probably not during that time period, although they haven't really been as good since LT retired and Norv was fired.  I guess it depends how we qualify that question.  Are we talking about total opportunities pissed away without winning s single Super Bowl, or total opportunities?  Because if it's the latter, you could argue a team like the Packers.

 

Now if you take it back a few more years, you could easily argue no team pissed away more opportunities than the Titans.

Hears to more such threads as this...

 

9-4 A Mirage

10-4 A Mirage

11-4 A Mirage

12-4 A Mirage

Most likely to lose in the Wild card

Lucky to be in Divisional

Expect Titans season to end on the road

Super Bowl blowout expected

 

Most improbable Super Bowl champs since the 2001 Patriots
