Bongo59 Posted November 11 Report Share Posted November 11 There will be few fans at game for the rest of the season. So crowd noise will be low for the oppositiion so that should help them lose out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knowing them they care more about winning some meaningless games than actually showing improvement. It's a fine line between hoping they have more failure or improving their prospects for the future. But we all had this debate last year. Securing the 1st overall pick let us get our QBOTF. But this year it's just as important that we get the #1 pick because of how horrible the team as a whole is. It can't be understated how important it is we get the #1 pick. It could cut in half the amount of time it takes this team to get back to being good.

The players that will still be here next year are professionals and understand that each season is its own entity. Momentum is a thing in a single season, but has no carry over to the next. The context of the last 8 games should be to improve fundamentals of the myriad of young players with less emphasis on game planning for a win.

IsntLifeFunny Posted November 11 Report Share Posted November 11 Yeah...Simmons, we are going to need to calm it down a bit. We might have won that Chargers game if he was playing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ctm Posted November 11 Report Share Posted November 11 (edited) The titans have 19 unrestricted free agents on the current roster and that's not counting potential cut candidates. All these guys are playing for their next contract. The #1 draft pick is meaningless to them.

They are getting healthier have a couple of winnable games and history suggests it is rare for teams to win fewer than 3 games in a season. Over the last 10yrs there has only been 7 teams out of 320 that have managed to win fewer than 3 games. Cast your mind back to the end of last year and the wild set of results required for the Titans to get the #1 pick even horrific teams unexpectedly win at times.

OILERMAN Posted November 11 Report Share Posted November 11 The Titans traded their best edge rusher, who was actually playing lights out, they traded their two best cover CBs. Their edge guys are laughingly bad and their CB room is a practice squad bunch. Their offense can barely convert 3rd downs and they can't score points. It's the NFL, sure they could win a game. It's more likely they don't. Remember, they scored a defensive TD and ST TD last week. They were outscored 20-3(Titans kicked a FG in garbage time) after that to a team with no OTs Starkiller, and rns90 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only the 2016 and 2017 Browns and the 2020 Jags in the last decade have won 1 or fewer games in a season. Yes this CB room absolutely sucks no argument there. I'm not sure how but over the last few games the pass rush has looked unexpectedly decent and that has been without Simmons and Key. How much of that was purely Dre'Mont Jones we are about to find out. Do I think this is one of the worst teams in the league absolutely I just won't be surprised if they manage to jag a win or two on the way home. Just hope if they do it doesn't cost them the #1 pick which is like a get out of jail free card for Borgonzi if they are lucky enough to get it.

OILERMAN Posted November 11 Report Share Posted November 11 We'll see. I 100% think this team is in the rare company of being that bad, one win. Look how lucky they were to get 1 win. I think the Browns and Saints are easily better. The Jags are way better. Mythos27 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This year, totally different story. Ward showing he's the guy trumps everything. freakingeek, titanruss, japan, and 1 other 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
