I think he might be better than he gets credit for... 

Payton's two biggest issues to me were some of the clock management in big games and losing games at home to teams that he had no business losing to.  I made a post about it one time but it seemed to happen on a yearly basis.  Remember, they lost to the 3-13 Titans in 2015.  They've lost home games to a bad Tampa team, a bad Cleveland team, even this year to a bad Giants team.  Yeah, I know if you coach long enough you'll have those games but it's happened more often than it should for Payton IMO.

Cris Collinsworth must think the Titans absolutely suck.  He's done eight Oilers/Titans game in his career (amazing that's all it's been).  Since he came to NBC in 2009 the Titans are 0-5 in games he's called, and they've lost the last six going back to 1995.  They've been outscored 178-74 in those games, never having scored more than 17 points in any of them.  The last time he called a victory for the franchise?  December 19, 1993, 26-17 at Pittsburgh.  Oilers fans will remember it as the day that Webster Slaughter got hurt as well as the day they clinched the AFC Central.  The other game was also a win, 17-14 at Cleveland in 1992.

HIllarious that JaRapist Winston fucked his knee. Hopefully him limping around fucks up his back some more and ends his career.

 

Whoever his backup is will be just as good or better. He's only ever shown out in games where they keep him from throwing more than 20 times and he gets clean deep bombs.

My concern is what you said about a backup actually being more efficient, especially if Payton has time to get him ready.

In normal years I would agree, but we actually are getting pressure with the front 4 this year. It should be fine.

Dude was a Bengal and could barely hold back his disdain for the Oilers.  Us having Jerry Glanville for a spell probably didn't help matters.

This was the first time Cris Collinsworth witnessed a Titans victory as an announcer in 10,185 days.  It was so long ago that on the same day that happened Bill Belichick was losing a game as a coach to the New England Patriots.

So had we never won on the NBC version of SNF?

2007 when Madden was there.  It was the game that the Titans won to get into the playoffs when the Colts rested Manning for most of the game.

They've hardly played on Sunday night over the years - especially since Collinsworth took over for Madden.  Usually got the Thursday Jags game or an occasional MNF game.

Resilient Titans

 

The Titans just keep on keeping on. On Sunday night, the Titans showed up ready to play following the loss of Henry. Two of the team's starting offensive linemen didn't play. No one predicted the Titans to win this game, but they won for the fifth time in a row to improve to 7-2 on the season. According to ESPN Stats and Info, the Titans are the 4th team in the last 15 seasons to win four straight games, all vs playoff teams from the previous season. The previous three (2009 Saints, 2010 Packers, and 2011 Patriots) all made the Super Bowl. "We're a resilient group," Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill said. "We believe in each other, and we're going to fight and we're going to try and find a way to win. Hat's off to the defense, and we found a way to win. I'm proud of the way our guys came out and battled."
