That’s the difference between Vrabel & his Titans vs Frank & his Colts.  The Titans beat other AFC playoff teams on Vrabel’s watch.  We haven’t had the same success under Frank.  It’s time for us to start beating the better AFC teams if we ever plan on making real playoff runs.

OMG, the Titans are the luckiest team I have ever seen. You talk about football Gods being with you, the Bills get a penalty on a 101 yard return and then this, too comical. This team is so lucky that it is truly nonsense. 

 

You make your luck. Vrabel learned from Belichick you play the whole 60 minutes. Look how Belichick and the Patriots played the Cowboys, they make you play 60 minutes. Make the plays to win it at the end when you can. We blow a FG, lose vs the Ravens. They make a 4th down stop, beat the Bills.

That right there on Monday night football the past two weeks  is the difference between the Titans and the Colts and why Tennessee will win the division. Titans can beat a good team while the Colts blow a game against a good team.  Huge win for the Titans. Sucks for Indy.  Saw this coming.  SMH.

Terrible decision, as good a runner as Allen is, sending him up the middle against hundreds of pounds of humanity was stupid. I know a field goal attempt may not have been successful but from that close, it would've taken a horrible snap or fumbled hold to not convert and then they could've won the coin toss and got the ball 1st in overtime.

Indy can’t catch a break in any shape or fashion. We get injured and fall apart. Tennessee loses their starters and backups and STILL stop Buffalo. 

That is when you know you have good coaching. Eberflus to me is not a very good coach. Titans defense played physical and we play like mush.

Yeah with the help from the REFS anyone can win.

Good teams create their own luck.  Since they’ve paired Tannehill (not that great of a QB imo) with Henry, they’ve had a knack for making key plays.  Be it turnovers to give their Offense a short field or defensive scores or Henry breaking off long TD runs.  Regardless, they usually cash in those opportunities.  Right now they’ve been getting all the good fortune the last couple seasons while we’ve been finding ways to lose close games to the better teams in our conference.  I don’t know what it’s gonna take but I’d love to have that good fortune swing back our way.

It was not a co-incidence that we won more close games when we had AV for a kicker and/or Luck as a QB that could make plays with his legs and arm. Those guys were the last true "finishers" we had, IMO.

The similarity between this MNF game and last week's is that 1 team didn't win the game, the other team lost it - last week it was us, and this week it was Buffalo. For all of Lamar Jackson's heroics, if we make just 1 of the 3 or 4 kicks we missed, we win that game regardless and if Buffalo showed a little imagination on the 4th down play call, they at least get the yard and if they take the field goal, they're probably still playing right now in overtime.

Colts had plenty of chances to beat Ravens but couldn’t get it done. Doyle got the benefit of a bad call on a cheap shot he gave late in the game but Colts couldn’t capitalize to win the game…kick was missed.  If you get the refs to give you a break…still got to cash in. Gotta give Titans credit for doing what we didn’t do last week.

If giving up 353 yards passing 75% completion and 3 td is defending the pass not sure what you definition of good is but it sure isnt mine or most

Oh good lord. They stopped the pass when it counted. You knew exactly what I meant. Quit trying to argue.

WE will beat them and so will KC so both teams will be 4-4 through 8 games IMO. Tonight was a pile of you know what though. These holding calls on kick offs are so inconsistent, you can call holding on almost every play, the REFS just do it when they want too. You don't take away a 101 yard run over a hold that had nothing to do with the play. I seen the hold but it was brief and Buffalo would've scored anyway, that player was gone regardless.

I think the colts are missing some swag on this team. You look at Aaron Rodgers and what he said to the bears. We need players with a little bit of ego.  We have a lot of players with a passive personality.

We need a WR like Michael Irvin, he was great and had swag. I know they don't make many like him. Odell is wasting away in Cleveland.

      I'm very interested in Carlie's as well.  I'm just not sold on our starting LB core.

      I also forgot to say I think Buffalo will also have a down year.

      Yeah North.....maybe I got confused about the Pittsburgh Pirates playing in the central.  But I think before realignment there were only 3 divisions, I think.. Like the Colts and Dolphins played in the East, the Raiders and Broncos played in the West and the Steelers and Brownies played in the Central.  But yeah my mistake the Steelers currently in the North division.

      I just wanted to give Pitt some love for his recent comments about Indy and family values. I also loved what he said about focusing on the long term financially and considering the situation youre in. He appreciates his place in the organization and that speaks volumes about him as a man. The Texans can have guys like Diggs, Im happy with Pitt. Just a top notch dude.    This is a place a lot of people love to hate on, for some reason. But he is living proof that all this rhetoric about how "nobody wants to live in Indiana" is just bonafied baloney. So many former players stick around here after retirement. There is a reason for that.    He is the exact kind of person you would think wouldnt like it here. Rich california kid whose father played in the NFL. Lives on a little farm in Indiana with his wife, who is also from California. And they both love it here.    Those huge cities are very over rated and it isnt for everyone. We just have to find people like Pitt who do and allow them to become pillars of the franchise.

      "I think he flashed last year and can add some value to the LB room."  And I also responded directly to the LB room question. I will simplify, he has a looooow ceiling.   So what's the Problem, why argue?
