Popular Post MIKE75 Posted November 7, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 7, 2019 Recently Kyle made a post explaining how it had been a fun 20 years but with a lot of heartache. Superfreak90 pointed out to Kyle imagine being a Browns,Jaguars, or Lions fan. Thinks about that for some time , and let it sink in. The top 5 worst teams since the Titans started up in '99 are..... 1--Cleveland-------97-230-1 with a .297 win percentage 2--Detroit----------122-205-1 with a .373 win percentage 3--Oakland--------130-198-0 with a .396 win percentage 4--Jacksonville---139-190-0 with a .422 win percentage 5--Washington----140-188-1 with a .427 win percentage The Browns have have just 2 winning seasons over the last 21 years having made the postseason only one time in 2002 which was 18 seasons ago. Over the last 12 years Jax have just 1 winning year and have had 8 seasons with 11 or more losses. Since 2003 which was nearly 17 years ago the Raiders have 1 winning year and have had 12 seasons with 11 or more losses. Imagine being fans of those teams........ I want you to really vision year by year pretty much every season. Think about how brutalized and beat up the fanbases for these teams are...... The worst the Titans ever did was 4 straight losing seasons 2012-2015 and 2 of those they were close to being .500 Now instead of 4 losing seasons imagine dealing with 8 straight losing seasons where every season is 11 or more losses or even worse how about 12 straight losing seasons..... Many wouldn't make it past the 5 year mark. The Titans have never been that bad and outside of a couple years have always been competitive. Also i'd like to point out why its always good to stick with the team you support. First the New Orleans Saints. Their first 20 seasons were all losing seasons. Also from the mid 60's when they started through the mid 00's they had just five years of postseason berths thru 40 years. Starting in 2006 with the arrival of Drew Brees they started winning and win their first Super Bowl in 2009. Second the Seattle Seahawks. The 1990's one of the worst team that decade was the Seahawks. From the mid 70's thru the mid 00's they had just five years of postseason berths thru 30 years. Starting in 2003 they started having success and over the past decade and a half they have had 12 postseason appearances along with 13 playoff wins,3 Super Bowl berths winning 1 title. Now for the Tennessee Titans..... First off i became a fan in the Titans inaugural year of 1999 their first year as a revamped organization called the Tennessee Titans. Last year i would look at that logo with the sword and the number 20 and realize its already been 20 years since the Titans began. But in all honesty if you look at the Titans first 20 years they did a lot better than many teams had in their first 20 seasons all things considered. In fact in the Titans first 20 seasons looking at regular season/playoff wins combined the team had 170 wins overall. So lets see how all the top teams fared in wins over the last 20 seasons from '99-'18..... 1---New England 263 wins 2---Pittsburgh 218 wins 3---Indy 216 wins 4---Green Bay 204 wins 5---Philly 200 wins 6---Baltimore 199 wins 7---Seattle 193 wins 8---Denver 188 wins 9---New Orleans 182 wins 10---Dallas 171 wins 10---NY Giants 171 wins 11---Tennessee 170 wins 11---Minnesota 170 wins 11---LA Chargers 170 wins . The Titans have had 3 straight winning seasons and would've easily had a 4th had they started Tannehill earlier. As recent as January 2018 the team had a playoff win at Kansas City. They have had 10 winning seasons,7 playoff berths,3 division titles,3x 13 win seasons,2 NFL ROYs,1 NFL MVP,2x NFL best record,2 AFC Championship appearances,1 AFC Title & 1 Super Bowl appearance....... We've had our fair share of exciting players not to mention several years here or there where we very well could've went all the way had we won those critical divisional playoff games in 2000,2002,2003 and 2008. So overall from the inaugural season of '99 through the middle of this season they are closing in on their 175th win and are still in the top 12 overall for most wins as a team since starting in '99. Overall the team has done a hell of a lot better than many others have. Also more often than not this team has been competitive outside of the odd years here and there. I could understand jumping ship if we were all fans of the Jaguars,Browns,Raiders,Redskins,etc. As for me you will never see me give up on this team ever. Do i get frustrated as hell. yes, Do i get tired of seeing mediocre QB play bringing down yet what could be another solid team, of course. However i will never give up or stop supporting this team...... So the Titans were 1 win away from cracking the top 10 in wins over the past 20 seasons.

abenjami Posted November 7, 2019 Report Share Posted November 7, 2019 1 hour ago, Former_Fan said: Is this Mike Vrabel giving us a pep talk on accepting mediocrity?? Exactly my thoughts. So what if the Titans have been less shitty than the Browns or some other teams? Ultimately it has been 20 years of failure when you look at the trophy shelf. Here's something interesting of note. Check out Mike's list of teams with more wins than the Titans: 1---New England 263 wins 2---Pittsburgh 218 wins 3---Indy 216 wins 4---Green Bay 204 wins 5---Philly 200 wins 6---Baltimore 199 wins 7---Seattle 193 wins 8---Denver 188 wins 9---New Orleans 182 wins 10---Dallas 171 wins 10---NY Giants 171 wins 11---Tennessee 170 wins There are 11 teams with more wins, and 10 of those teams won Super Bowls.

BudsOilers Posted November 7, 2019 Report Share Posted November 7, 2019 This should result in a banning. This arbitrary 20 year record bullshit and the goddamn montage. The team existed for almost 40 years in Houston and most of the good Titans players early on (along with the front office and coaches) were Oilers. Bottom line is that the Titans have been bad or mediocre for far too long. The bar should be the 1999-2003 period where the team was winning 11-13 games in the regular season and making playoff runs.

freakingeek Posted November 7, 2019 Report Share Posted November 7, 2019 (edited) I appreciate the sentiment and positive spin, Mike, but telling myself "at least I'm not a Jags or Browns fan" doesn't help me excuse the mediocrity that I have helped finance for the last 20 years, to the tune of several thousands of dollars per year. I'm no bandwagon fan but I'm starting to think that money would be better spent someplace else.

Titans fans don't know shit about heartache compared to those of us who followed the team in Houston. Just look at the early 90's. DCTitan 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
