Yep, just heard it. Wow!!!

 

If he does have a chance to come back for the playoffs, I am sure that is what they will try to do first. Their schedule, outside the Rams next, is set up for a top 2 seeding in the AFC with Tannehill running the show, IMO.

Their win came with an expensive price tag. Could be our window to climb back in if teams don’t have to scheme against him anymore. 
 

Need to take care of business on our end. 

 

After yesterday, I do not have any confidence in beating a team we are not favored to beat, to be honest. 

 

Bills, Bucs, Cardinals, Raiders, Patriots - I doubt we win more than 1 out of those 5. I still think the Bills are the best team in the AFC and will go to the SB.

We have to….we MUST win 3 out of the 5 there to at least finish 10-7. That’s a tall ask considering how we blundered away yesterdays  strong start. 
 

Agreed on the confidence part. Yesterday’s loss really took the wind out of my sails. I HOPE this loss make Frank wake up. No more self inflicted pain

We still have the Bucs, Cardinals, Bills, Raiders, and Pats. Can Frank really out coach these teams...

Henry suffered a potentially season-ending foot injury yesterday. 
 

I never wish injuries on anyone, and I hope on a human level he’s okay. But if he’s out, then the Titans aren’t in good shape. 

I agree. I would rather take on any team when they are at full strength.

Which one of our guys got hurt excluding bumps and bruise’s?

Let us worry about the Jets. Lots of underneath passing to the RBs they do, a recipe for success against us and our D scheme.

Oh man… we lose against the Jets the knives will REALLY be out. At that point tue season will

Be effectively over. 
 

To your point it feels like a trap game. Mike white might have a career completion day against us. He carved up the bengals pretty good.

Need to take care of buisness on our end. 

Colts are done after that lost. With upcoming games against the Bills, Bucs, Cards, Raiders and Pats, the odds don’t favor the colts

Three of those teams will beat us because they are better. Bucs,bills,and Cardinals. Pats may beat us because we will get out coached. Raiders is a toss up

You’re being pessimistic not realistic.  There are a lot of games left to be played.  I can see why that’s the initial reaction but we have a long way to go.

Just having nightmares about Wentz playing hero ball versus bill bellichick

Makes it even more frustrating that we let Tannehill beat us. We got beat by a combo of a decent Ryan Tannehill and a one legged Derrick Henry at home. Pissening.

We got beat by Wentz playing dumb at the end of the game. He temporarily went into hero ball mode rather than taking what the defense gave. 

 

We'll now see what Ryan Tannehill truly is without Henry. Defenses can now play the pass much more effectively against them.

I think you are being optimistic and not realistic.  They have the tie-breaker, so we are 4 games back. 

As far as should win games, I see the Colts with 4 and the Titans with 5.  I don't see a "realistic" avenue to make up 4 games. 

Colts play:

Jets

Jags

@Buffalo

Tampa

@Houston

Patriots

@Cardinals

Raiders

@Jags

 

Titans have:

@Rams

Saints

Texans

@Patriots

Jags

@Steelers

49ers

Dolphins

@Texans

We got beat by their best weapon - Frank Reich.

I see 3 games the Titans could lose without Henry. I see 5 games the Colts could lose.

 

Titans end up at 12-5 and a possible #2 or #3 seed in the AFC, and Colts end up at 8-9 and out of the playoffs in all likelihood.

He is planning on suing the turf monster. :)

I think he's being quite rational and pragmatic.  JMO

    • There’s been a lot of comments made by Ballard lately that they are always planning a few years out, while the coach is pushing for players that can help now. So it’s a balance. He’s made comments that the goal is to protect and provide weapons for AR. The talent at the top of the draft seems like there could be a couple really good offensive lineman falling down to us, with a run on receivers and skill players. I don’t necessarily see that, I think there could be a run on qbs, tackles, and pass rushers with the obvious 3 receivers before we pick. That could potentially push all corners, as well as Bowers down to 15. But say, both corners and Bowers go top 15, who does that push out? Most likely a talented tackle. They can either trade back or take the highest rated player on the board, which would provide swing tackle depth, and a plan for if Smith is injured/isnt re-signed following 2025. Some are speculating it might be best to move Smith to guard in that scenario. 
    • I don't believe this would ever happen as the price would be much too steep. The only way this is even a remote possibility is if the Pats do not like Maye or McCarthy . Then this would also need the QB needy teams to feel the same as NE . The value of Maye , if he's a franchise QB is multiple firsts. IMO , you can't give up that for a WR
    • Happy Draft Day to the folks who are in Indiana! (And east coast) lol. If this actually happens today I don’t know what I would do. Pipe dream or not, I’m READY for this draft to start! 
    • Kirk did have the Vikings at the top of the division in the 2022 season at 13-4. He was injured last year. Oh well have fun with your new QB.    You act like I don't know Vikings football, comical because I like the team and follow them a lot. You and @NFLfansay Kirk doesn't know situational football. In 2022 he was the best situational QB in the league. Vikings were 11-0 in games decided by 3 points or less. It is because Kirk handled most situations right. You don't go 11-0 in games 3 points or less and not be a smart QB. 
    • Maybe I am the one who will end up with egg on his face but I just don’t get why people think the Colts are actually going to draft an olineman with their first pick.  Nelson and Kelly returned to their pro-bowl playing status.  Raimann looks to be a very good young left tackle and the Colts have made it pretty clear they see Smith as one of the most underrated tackles in football.  They aren’t drafting a right guard in the first round, Nelson was exception, and even then Fries held his own at right guard last year.  They aren’t going to draft a guy who isn’t going to start next year either in the first round.  The starting oline is probably the least of their worries going into this draft.
