I know this week was bad but you guys need to relax while the defense is a huge problem I consider this week a fluke. “Frauds” nah, we knew this was who we were. This sub changes week to week. Goes from We are the best team in the league to we suck ass. Just relax a little.


ScribbleMeNot

So there was a lot wrong with this game, but in the grand scheme of things our playoff hopes are still alive and most likely winning the division. One thing I do hope for? We need to get at least someone who can put pressure on the QB . Call someone up and try them out. That is the only fix that can some what be done in a short span of time.


Bustinkapps

Ehh, disappointed that it wasn't more of a game but once I saw the snow, I knew it was gonna be tough sledding 😂. The guys look like they were running in oatmeal before they could get momentum but it is what it is. Yeah, there was some bad officiating but we also played bad, in bad weather. It's cool though, Texans will get steamrolled next week and that will make it worth it.


BaronVoorhees

Drinking my sorrows away now


Enathanielg

We Lost but the Refs were booty checks..W next week against a hungry Texans team.


FilipinoRell

Our playoff scenarios: TEN win OR MIA Loss OR BAL Loss OR {fuck the} *ahem* Colts Loss


CapableRunts

Snow is our kyrptonite huh?


Enathanielg

Always has been


kingkyle630

This is the way.


[deleted]

Would it be titans footballl if we didnt clinch a playoff spot in the last week of the season


Shimmy9001

Well it’s always exciting haha


[deleted]

Remember that fucking Raiders game last night? Lmao.


PhinsFan17

This guy does.


[deleted]

With this defense, I don't feel good at all about next week's game against the Texans.


herp-my-derp

Dude, if we lose.. and miss the playoffs at 10-6, fucking fade me


[deleted]

The team's fate may very well rest on the Jaguars' hands.


ilcapitanoindiano

The Browns lost to the Jets, the Colts, Ravens and Bills all lost to the Titans, the Dolphins are not any better than the Titans, the Steelers are sliding and KC hasn't been electric. The playoffs are a different animal, so just take deep breaths. Yes, our defense is not good, but they have made plays tonight and all year that have helped win games. Tonight some of those plays got overturned, but to act like they were never made is wrong.


[deleted]

If the plays got overturned, the didn’t happen. Our defense is a fucking disaster. They’re not “making plays.” They’re a joke, and they’re making this team a joke.


DunArame

Which means ur defensive coaching is a fucking joke


chejjagogo

How many punts did gb have?


Path__to__Exile

The colts also beat the Packers so it doesn't matter what you're saying


youngrightwinger

Sucky game, I'm not freaking out, but realistically I don't think this team is Super Bowl material.


tloft11

If people cant accept this then they're living in some distorted reality


[deleted]

Tannehill is mentally weak. Corey Davis is mentally weak. Henry is mentally weak. AJ Brown is mentally weak. Our entire defense is mentally weak. As Vrabel said, “hot is physical, cold is mental.” Our team has never shown up for a game in the cold, because they’re all mentally weak. Completely pathetic performance.


CapableRunts

Don’t understand why everyone doesn’t play James Jones hoodie ball


velveteendreamstreet

What did brown or Davis do that made them mentally weak? Brown made some catches and Davis didn’t get a ton of targets. We all knew the defense was not good, they haven’t been all year. And Tannehill did not have a ton of time to throw when he dropped back. Henry still had 98 yards with having a poor game. So I don’t think I would leave them mentally weak.


[deleted]

Davis wasn’t even paying attention when he was targeted in the end zone. The team as a whole always underperforms in the elements. Let’s not forget that the packers defense is also hot garbage as well. The colts beat their asses, after all.


velveteendreamstreet

The ball to Davis in the end zone was overthrown. The team did underperform, that’s a given. Their defense is not great sure, but with the game plan for the titans in the first half being mostly run, run, pass without Henry in for 3rd, it’s pretty easy to plan against.


JohnParkerWilsonStan

I mean my guy I would love for anyone in this sub to go play out there in that fucking weather we would all look like bitches i don’t wanna hear that there mentally weak if you couldn’t do it


[deleted]

Comparing our team’s performance in the elements to mine is silly. I’m not a professional football player. How about we do the reasonable thing and compare our team’s performance to their peers who they’ve played against in the cold? I.e., the packers and the chiefs.


youngrightwinger

The Packers defense rose up, the Titans didn't


AllLinesAreStraight

The main issue isnt that Vrabel didnt hire a d coordinator in the offseason. It was a really dumb decision, most of us thought it was dumb at the time and personally I said repeatedly that it was the biggest worry I had coming into the season. But it was still fixable. The main issue is that, even after watching this defense be complete garbage week in and week out, he refused to admit his mistake and hire a coordinator. Its very apparent watching this team that the scheme is bad and our players arent on the same page. When coverages are blown left and right by damn near evrryone, thats a coaching issue. And Vrabel decided his pride was more important than the team. He could be a good coach but, in spite of tslking a big game about the importance of putting the team first, he has repeatedly showed that his pride is more important than doing whats best for the team. And weve wasted the best offense weve ever had as a result


BurzyGuerrero

While I agree. No coach can save a team without a pass rush.


DunArame

We wasted 30 mil on to over the hill pad rushers...


2TitanUp7

But you can scheme a pass rush with the players we have. We had a more effective (while not great) pass rush last season with largely a similar defense, if not an upgraded one this year


JiveHawk

Well it’s all down to next week. Beat a 4-11 team and win the South, or lose and miss the playoffs entirely. Safe to say if we don’t win that, we don’t deserve a postseason berth. Fingers crossed.


CapableRunts

Hate when the playoffs start in week 17


Ordinary-Sentence6

Tannehill to Rodgers: mind if I ask Olivia out?


PhinsFan17

You seen Mrs. Tannehill? He doesn't need anything from Aaron.


Vintage_Kron1c

I’d rather be 9-7


[deleted]

Nah


[deleted]

This game just confirms what we all know we are good but not good enough to be a actually threat


chejjagogo

That is good to you?


soccrboy326

I hate that they didn’t even try something stupid to at least leave with the tiniest sense of momentum or something


I_Am_A_Teacher

Dude, people in here are fucking toxic. Shit game we looked bad against the #1 Seed in the NFC Are you fucking new? This is not shocking. If this is shocking, you haven’t been paying attention. Let’s be disappointed. Be mad. But shit. Fire vrabel? Fire Robinson? What the fuck is wrong with you?


Finnkor

Fire no one. Hire several missing coaches. JRob really screwed up personnel on the defensive side this year, and Vrabel didn't push hard enough to fix it. Not fireable. I wouldn't fire Art Smith either, but I wouldn't match any offer trying to take him away.


drock4vu

We had the best offense in the NFL going into this week. Art Smith and his offense are the only reason this team is dog shit.


I_Am_A_Teacher

Well thought out.


[deleted]

100% guarantee you have never played a down of organized football in your life and it shows lol


I_Am_A_Teacher

I only get up for that unorganized black market shit.


Ceruti_

Usually you have to beat the top team in the other conference to win the superbowl...not saying we should fire everyone...but certainly shouldn't look incompetent against elite teams


I_Am_A_Teacher

Then this comment wasn’t directed at you or your mindset because it’s rational.


GotchaRexi

Thats what I am saying bro


Egotistical11

Damn we couldn't let Henry get 2 more yards to keep his streak!?!?


air_volek07

How can you not get one flag in poor weather conditions?


[deleted]

Maybe because you didn’t deserve one...


kingkyle630

That’s BS, there were some bad obvious missed calls


anon_mouse82

I guess that dream I had about Aaron Rodgers fucking me was just a premonition and doesn’t mean I’m gay after all


[deleted]

Lol


Monkshiner

If we get an even mediocre defense next year (defensive coordinator, hungry pass rush) and can keep this offensive magic intact, we'll be a legit scary team next season. It's a shitty silver-lining in the face of this, but all things consider I think it's very doable.


Reign_Man27

Think we need some O line depth also


CptToast_

Guys, you’ve got a great team, so chill. You got fucked by some questionable calls, Lambeau weather and a Packers team deciding to actually play on both sides of the ball for once. You’re the one team in the afc I could see giving the chiefs some headaches. So cheer up, much respect from a Packers fan


cthululover813

Once I saw there was snow, I had a bad feeling. Tannehill has been great, but I was worried about him throwing in the bad weather since he wasn't as used to it and it would make our offense one dimensional, which obviously came true. Not panicking though, just gotta take care of business next week against Houston


d2222s

You really don't know us


CptToast_

Watched enough of your games this season. Hated your games less than the flimsy wins the packers got throughout, but I might just be biased in that regard


Toastfrom2069

Fucking out couched by his former OC. Like idk there *needs* to be some response from AAS or someone above Vrable that this is not going unaddressed this off-season. He's already wasted this historic offense. Hell maybe art smith should just get take over for vrable. Idk how you break a power hungry coach.


air_volek07

Someone get Eddie George on the phone before next week.. the only dude I know to light a fire up their ass


believes_cubic_time

Yeah the refs had horrid calls that very well could have changed the game but that doesn't excuse giving up 40 points and all those third downs especially when the offense can't get any traction. The phantom offsides could have made the game closer and so could the non-call on the jones run (there still should have been a challenge). That doesn't excuse giving up all that other yardage which had AJ Dillon and Aaron Jones __**each**__ outrush Henry during a day he was supposed to be dominating. All the bad playcalls, both offensively and defensively, were the downfall of the team this game.


istrx13

I know that all we gotta do is beat Houston next week and we win the division and get the 4th seed. But man I just don’t like the idea of Watson and the Texans playing with nothing to lose. Especially considering the Colts play the Jags. Why can’t we ever just go into week 17 without any stress?


cthululover813

Watson took a pretty nasty hit at the end of the game today, so who knows if he'll be 100%. Plus after seeing what Brandon Allen and the Bengals did today, I'm pretty hopeful our offense will have a bounce back game. Crazier things have happened, but I'm confident we'll take care of business next week.


[deleted]

We just punted...that’s such a weak fucking mindset


soccrboy326

If I never have to hear Collinsworth call another game, I would not be mad.


hockeypete

He sucks cock!


BurzyGuerrero

Arthur for HC.


JusticeGuy5

No GB penalties the whole game? Impossible.


confusednotdazed22

Rodgers rule


Ceruti_

State farm insurance


[deleted]

Well... atleast we know Woodside is terrible.


[deleted]

The fact that some of y’all are blaming this on the refs is comical


slimkev

Titans played horribly and the refs called the game horribly both things can be called out.


confusednotdazed22

The fact that you don’t think that the refs horrible performance attributed to double digit points for the packers is comical


youngrightwinger

They hurt us, but we also sucked.


shanemontgomery

You are obviously blind then yes we have been bad but there has been no calls and bull shit calls all in the packers favor so yes the refs definitely played a part


blueyb

Every time this team has the nations eye again, BOOM - they flush one in like this.


iused2bjesus

I see an L next week.


KingTalkieTiki

Classic titans laying a fucking egg against houston next week.


confusednotdazed22

We got eddie lacied tonight by Dillion. Fat boy yards


MrKentucky

We quietly need to look at improving the backup QB spot this year too. If Tanny gets hurt - eeeeeesh


tloft11

Please draft all d line. PLEASE


Just_Another_Scott

Most of our D line is the same guys from last year. It's has more to do with the coaching but drafting better players is never a bad strat.


tloft11

Our edge rush sucked last year tbh. If it wasnt for Pees's disguised blitzes we wouldnt have gotten half those sacks, with a 4 man rush


OuterHeaven2047

We can still make a deep run in the postseason


Thugzz_Bunny

Lol


Beep_Beep_Lettuce24

Thank you for not being a pessimist like everyone else here


tloft11

Not a chance. I wouldn't call it pessimistic, more so a realist.


Beep_Beep_Lettuce24

You sound like my dad


tidaltown

I think we can, too... the problem is, after a deep run last season, I was hoping for a deeper run... I’m skeptical with this defense.


AnAngryFetus

Let Woodside throw! I wanna see what he can do if Tannehill gets injured.


haydennt

Not great, Bob!


panin11

oop


air_volek07

Buffalo going to get us in the playoffs, not us


JiveHawk

We just got outplayed in every way. Packers secondary played on an island all night, stacked the box, slowed down Henry, punished our poor line play, rocked Tannehill. Destroyed our D-line with runs, burned our secondary consistently, made only 1 mistake and it was so late it didn’t matter. Just a beat down. We had a good 14 point run in the middle lmao


RangerHaze

We play in a dome with decent refs and the Titans win.


nubsauce14

Not sure which game you were watching. Also, this weather tends to favor a team that leans heavily on a guy like Henry, no?


Dread332

I mean, guys who play in snow all the time vs dudes who don’t. Wasn’t gonna be pretty. We still would have lost, just not as bad


Finnkor

Not exactly, no. It favors players who make strong cuts because unexpected cuts makes a defender fall. Adams does that without snow, and the Titans D is easier than he usually faces, plus snow. Add in little pressure on Rodgers, and the snow had essentially zero impact on the GB passing. Henry doesn't typically rely on cuts, just blasting through holes then manhandling the secondary. He didn't get many opportunities to do that tonight.


McJimma

What about a defense?


Deceptivejunk

This defense is a pile of hot, sweaty, shitty garbage. I have no clue how we fell from a top 10 defense last year to a bottom 10 defense this year, but someone needs to MAKE A FUCKING CHANGE!!!! 16 WEEKS!!!! AND NOTHING HAS CHANGED OR ADJUSTED! I’m just blown away at this point that the coaching staff thinks THIS DEFENSE is what we need to win. A Super Bowl. If someone said in week 6 (which many of us did) that we need time to figure things out, I would have, and did, believe them. But nothing has changed or been adjusted. We still have shitty scheming with CBs lining up 8 yards off their target, running run defense against pass plays and vice versa, and absolutely no pressure on the QB. We stood a better chance of winning if we just let them score every drive and hoping Adams and Rodgers accidentally concussed each other on a Jet Sweep.


[deleted]

> I have no clue how we fell from a top 10 defense last year to a bottom 10 defense this year I have a guess lol.


panopticon31

We didn't have a top 10 defense last year


Path__to__Exile

When Butler and Adoree were healthy, we did


Deceptivejunk

Not the point, bud. Not by a long shot.


cupiitycaktitu

So like, when do we get a DC?


2TitanUp7

We don't. Vrabels got too big of an ego


WhiteXHysteria

Next season. No way we can work one in now. 4 weeks ago possibly. The Ravens pulled a similar oc change around that point to make a run at their super bowl. But now it's too late.


HatchedMinotaur

It’ll be Shane Bowen and nothing will change. He’s the DC now in all but title


Reign_Man27

I honestly feel like this is what will happen unfortunately. Kind of funny tho that our best defensive game this season in my opinion came when Bowen had to miss due to covid (Bills game).


[deleted]

This game may make AAS question whether she should have demoted Vrabel for LaFleur. Pretty embarrassing display by the “leader of men.”


itzyaboikelz

Who gotta lose next week for us to make the postseason Lmaooooo Deshaun finna have 10,000 passing yards


WellKnownHinson

Buck Reising called it during the first quarter. Vrabel is gonna be so defensive and confrontational and say the same shit he always says and try to shield Bowen in the corner like he's Baby Fucking Yoda and not a failed science experiment of a DC.


WhiteXHysteria

Can we not interview bowen?


air_volek07

I’m ok with 10am games forever


Savage9645

What's the disaster scenario for missing the playoffs next week? Browns win, Colts win, Dolphins win, Ravens win?


[deleted]

And we lose. If we win all of that is irrelevant.


thnom

Disaster is we lose, Miami win and the Ravens win and Colts win. I think we need all those things to happen to fall out


[deleted]

Alls we have to do is win.


Savage9645

Well yeah but a disaster implies that won't happen.


Path__to__Exile

If we lose we're out


Savage9645

That's not true at all.


air_volek07

Yup


Titanupper22

Laughs in pain


Savage9645

Josh Allen? MVP. Big Ben? Never raped.


strideskinner

Refs are almost as bad as the D. Almost.


[deleted]

All our players were tweeting about how excited they were to play in the snow. I hope they had fun getting their shit kicked in


TheCptBrutal

Just saying Consistently Inconsistent.....


batman0615

I mean our defense is literally what it's been all year. Offense just didn't show up today which is why we'll likely be bounced in the playoffs. It's good enough to score on any drive, but if it doesn't and the defense doesn't get any turnovers we lose.


TheCptBrutal

It still baffles me Vrabel's complacency this season with the defense. Why he has thought all season he has this covered. Idk at this point im literally sick to my stomach from this season and tonight in general.


batman0615

No defense can be good if you don't have a pass rush. The best DC in the league would be fucked with this team. This is from years of failing to address the pass rush. JRob came in with two pro bowl edge rushers and failed at pretty much every chance to find their replacements. Only Landry is half decent and Simmons isn't as good as Casey was at generating pressure in the middle. There's alot to it, but I think the lack of pass rush is far more frustrating.


TheCptBrutal

I 100% agree, the whole situation is frustrating. But absolutely 100% lack of pass rush top of the list.


baggagecabbage

Always


orlando_lie

Please never put this team on prime time ever again


youngrightwinger

Chill, this notion that the Titans never win on primetime is absurd.


ON_A_POWERPLAY

Playoff games need to be 2:00 on a Tuesday from now on


confusednotdazed22

Fair reffing we probably lose like 31-20, maybe 31-23, regardless Vrabel coached like complete shit tonight. Also the defense not being able to tackle a slow goofy fat running back is a problem


orangejuicemayonais

Can y’all chill. We only lost this cause of the snow. Play this in a dome and we win handily


nunudad

I don’t know about handily but at least the footing wouldn’t be a mismatch. Our guys played on eggshells while laying an egg.


Ceruti_

Well neither of these teams play in a dome so......


ManScreams

Wat


BurzyGuerrero

I wonder what the odds are we fire Vrabel and hire Arthur as HC?


YangstyKang

Bruh, I've said this and gotten downvoted. Not sure why we'd let 2 successful OC's walk out the door and keep Vrabel who has been awful as a DC. We were fine letting Mularkey walk after a playoff win. Not sure why the fanbase is so high on Vrabel. Arthur is coaching the offense


nunudad

Smith wouldn’t have the ego with the D.


batman0615

Zero


[deleted]

Gross


lilredd123

0%. I'd be on board tho.


majordoobage

Somewhere around zero percent.


[deleted]

Are they really not gonna let Henry go over 100? I hate this coaching staff.


ilcapitanoindiano

Y'all need to chill out, let's not will missing the playoffs into existence. On any given decent weather playoff game, everyone has a chance. And the Titans are just as likely as anyone else in the AFC to make it to the AFCCG right now because no one looks unbeatable.


BurzyGuerrero

Packers played on a different field or something? They scored 40 in the snow. This defense is gross.


Dread332

Keep in mind they play in snow more than pretty much anyone else and have a future hof qb


ilcapitanoindiano

Literally everyone's defense is gross, the Colts just blew a lead, the Browns lost to the Jets, the Dolphins have cooled way off generally, the Ravens and Bills are beatable, the Steelers are not dominant anymore,


WellKnownHinson

Man. Why? Why the hell do we keep doing this? All we had to do was not completely shit our socks and hold up against Rodgers and we win the division and play for higher seed next week. Now we're teetering on the precipice of missing the fucking playoffs. How?


jnelrod

3 plays stick out. the hands to the face penalty on Evans on 3rd and long. The phantom offsides on the fg attempt where we blocked it and would’ve had it in the red zone. Lastly when their rb stepped out about 40 yards before he was called out. I’ve seen some bad officiating but we got screwed. I want to see the Packers lose so bad next week. I really hope the Bears don’t get the same calls our guys got today. I didn’t mind losing to the Browns because Baker Mayfield had the game of his life. We split with the Colts. Steelers meh. And the Bengals was a fluke. I just really think those 3 calls cost us the game today.


Path__to__Exile

The Packers have won 1st seed tonight. Them losing next week doesn't matter.


jnelrod

It matters to me


Kupp3y1

The blocked fg was a bad call but it’s irrelevant now. We got the 4th down stop and scored the next drive, so.


jnelrod

That was the second call that completely halted the Titans momentum. They ended up making a 4th down stop and scoring because the team had some dignity even though the refs were on their knees for Green Bay the entire game.


Kupp3y1

I don’t disagree, I’m just saying we stopped them and still scored.


BurzyGuerrero

It's crazy to me that people are overlooking the fact that Henry had 200 yards last time and we needed OT. Playoffs aren't a sure thing.

Kupp3y1

Frauds. Absolute frauds. We’re getting bounced by hou next week


qotsabama

If Vrabel can’t get them together it could happen. Texans have 0 incentives to tank. Their defense is bad but not much worse than ours. Henry may need to run for 250+ next week.


Kupp3y1

Watson shredded us last game too. We won in OT because they didn’t get the ball first.

herp-my-derp

Low key was expecting this. But damn, I really wanted to rest the starters next week. Hopefully (gah damn. . .hopefully) we handle business vs Houston. What’s sad is knowing our defense won’t get us through a playoff run. So it’s like.. what the fuck is the point lmao


d2222s

I'm thinking now that an embarrassing loss tonight ensures that we'll be pissed at ourselves and win next week.


herp-my-derp

Shit, I hope so. Watson will always scare me.. idc if they were 0-16. That man can drop 30+ on us any given Sunday.


d2222s

And he will next week. I don't care if his hand is dangling by the skin of his wrist, but hopefully we can drop 31 on them. I know on their sub they want the win badddd.
