PrintTennessee Titans at New England Patriots, Oct 18, 2009 4:15 PM EDT
The 0-5 Tennessee Titans (Houston Oilers) take on our 3-2 New England Patriots (Boston Patriots). As you can surmise from the logos, we're back in throwbacks. Hopefully the outcome is different than the last time we wore throwbacks (ahem - Denver). I swear we were blinded by those gruesome socks, but that's in the past. Time to move on.

Friday's injury report has some notable entries, namely Matt Light. Notably absent, however, is Wes Welker which means his health has improved. I thought for sure that hit to the back would've kept him out, but there's no stopping the little engine that can.
Don't ever discount an 0-5 team, especially one that as recently as 2008 was tearing up the field. Never underestimate their desire to replace that "0" with a 1. However, today will be an uphill battle. Tom Brady appears to be progressing and our Patriots play in front of a home town crowd. The Titans have their work cut out for them.
Drop by Music City Miracles to check out all the Titans goings on.

Any coincidence that the week AT is a healthy scratch
and doesn’t participate in practice for non-injury issues, is the week Seau comes back?

Wasn't he out of practice this week for a non-injury issue?
May be family issues or a disciplinary matter. I’m sure we’ll hear Hoodie duck questions about it after the game.

Snow game might settle them down
and force them to play dink-and-dunk, which is what I’ve personally thought they should do until Brady gets his rhythm back. None of this “I’m hitting 50% of my passes, let’s bomb Moss” stuff.

against a good run defense, that’s a 2 yard loss. You only get to dance if you get tons of time.

Sorry to keep bringing this into the game thread...
…but here’s some from Butler’s old UConn teammate, Desi Cullen, on the loss of their comrade Jasper Howard early this morning:
That just goes to show you the bond you create and that Jazz created and the impact he made. Not only on me but every individual in this program – the players that left like D-But (Darius Butler) and the players that just came in. …Hearing the news that he’s a father breaks my heart. The idea that he will grow up without his father tears me apart, just to think what it would be like for that young child. But as Jazz looks down on us I can promise him and his family that son or daughter will have 105 uncles for the rest of its life.source.

and..... we RECOVER!!!!!!!!!!
this is not going to well for the titans.
They're not only a 0-5 team, they THINK they're an 0-5 team
and that’s just going to make them an 0-6.
They really lost a lot when Haynesworth left
They don’t really have a lot of difference on defense besides that.
But their DB injury problems are really evident today.
Kerry Collins is awful
the whole Titans team is awful. It is funny how they went from the best team in the AFC to the worst, literally. They are so bad. Keep it up. The Jets are finding their groove and T.O. and Edwards are hurt.

I have to admit it, I thought BB was nuts
I liked the Butler pick, but thought Brace was overrated and Vollmer would be available in the next round. Now I still don’t like the Brace pick, especially with how well Wright and Pryor have played, but the rest? Pure genius.

That's why the Titans ought to put Young in
The Titans won’t come back, and our guys could use the practice.
Besides, their season is basically over — they’re not going to win 10 in a row, and no one is going to make the playoffs without 10 wins in the AFC. So they might as well see if Young can still be their QB of the future or if they need to think about drafting a QB in the 2010 draft.
Oh, I know *they* should
I just don’t want them to do it against the Pats, if only because it’ll help them. Haha.

But that's why WE should want them to do it
Make our guys get some experience against the type of QB they always struggle against in a situation where we’re going to win anyway.

They had no problems in the snow before
it probably settles Brady down and makes him concentrate on the basics more. Feet, knees, shoulders, etc.

Could be.
Makes as much sense as anything. But there’s an easier explanation today: anemic pass rush coupled to a defensive backfield that looks more like a play-date.

Hard to get much of a pass rush when it's that slippery
And they can’t help their secondary — their top 83 defensive backs are all on the injured list.
They'd probably have a better chance of stopping Brady
if they put a duck hunter in centre-field with a shotgun and told him to blaze away at the football.

Fischer is too stubborn
Should have turned to Young 3 weeks ago
Now its too late – Titans out of contention for playoffs
With their defensive issues and injuries
They wouldn’t have had a shot. They would’ve been able to scope out Young, though, figure out whether he’s worth keeping.

That last part is tough to believe

Key player.
I think it has a lot to do with the losses of Haynesworth and McNair — McNair especially. You have to have veteran leadership to hold the ship together when things start to slip. THings started to slip in Nashville, but there was no one to take control.

He’s still doing that silly dance-step hop-shuffle. It’s exactly what gets him pasted against competent defenses. It only works if the o-line is getting consistent push off the line, across the line. Any seepage or blockage (sounds like conversations overhead at a nursing home), and it’s “Maroney, loss of 1.”

You have to think that, based on their performace v/. the Jets and the fact that they’re a divisional rival that split with us last year, those have to be considered two must-wins against an unpredictable opponent.
So, we have to win those two. We have to beat the Jets. Indy is a conference rival and playoff contender, and the Saints are probably the best team in the league right now.

…this isn’t a “reemergence of Maroney.” He’s still doing all the wrong things. The Titans are getting pushed all over the field and hiding what Laurence does poorly. Now, he might be getting around to figuring it out (as he did in ‘07 for a brief stretch), but I’m not nearly ready to say he’s turning a corner.

getting braylon was a bad idea
makes them try to throw the ball more which is a mistake especially for a rookie and a team built on running
yep. but it only helps us so I'll take it.

Why are they throwing the ball at all?
The Bills gave up 200 yards on the ground in the first half. They should pounding the ball every play.
"Breaks the tackle"
That wasn’t a tackle. That was the kind of crap that gets you yanked from a high school game. McGowan.
As Mr. Sloan always says, there is no "I" in team, but there is an "I" in pie. And there's an "I" in meat pie. Anagram of meat is team... I don't know what he's talking about. --Shaun of the Dead

While I'm happy with this win...
…Belichick can’t think it’s representative of how they’ll do against a good team.

Nah.
This is out of control — just one of those games that, er… snowballs.

But there's no way to fake Brady's accuracy.
He looks like he’s back.

have we caused the more Forced fumbles in the league?
i seriously feels like we get like a force fumble or more every game
I mean in general.
He’s been in on a bunch of them.

That was just sloppy
That’s at least two of the fumbles caused by the Titans’ backs not protecting the ball the way they’re supposed to.
WTF was that?
You’re up 59 points. Just shut the hell up and stop taunting!
That was uncalled for from Lockett. He'll be spoken to

whoever is 38 should get smacked in the face.
YOU DON’t TAUNT! ASSHOLE!
That's a safety
Not worth arguing, but that’s a terrible call.
Ron Brace?
Since there’s nothing really going on, does anyone know what’s up with Ron Brace? Why haven’t we seen more of him?
guess pryor and wright are better for now.
would like to see brace though.
Is he inactive?
He’s been surpassed on the depth chart by both Pryor and Wright.
Vince Young got tackled in the end zone
So the refs said he was down on the two, making it 4th and a billion. The Titans punted, Welker muffed it and covered it up.
Well...
that was dull. But I’ll definitely take it and go.

What bullshit
We should’ve broke 60…forward progress was stopped in the endzone, not at the 2 yard line. Sorry, just would’ve loved to read a box score with over 60 points.
GG guys
Hope they save some of the fireworks for England

Well, it was a good something...
….but I wouldn’t call that much of a “game.”
Good time watching the Pats look like the Pats again.
Long passes from Brady, some impressive shutdown defense…
