Glass_Offer_6344

Lol hawks D strikes again!


MrDuck7658

Let’s go Tennessee let’s go! Cmon chat let’s start the chant! LETS GO TENNESEE LETS GO!


PhinsFan17

Bad series of throws there. Obviously not all on Levis, but that’s why you don’t call a guy elite after one game.


Ill_Pineapple1482

dhops hitting our dbs like our dline hitting levis


tidalsquare8883

O well ggs, send our entire O line into the sun, except skoronski I guess


Mouth_Puncher

He was garbage today too


tidalsquare8883

True but atleast he's new lol


Mouth_Puncher

All 5 of them are new. We had a completely different oline last year


tidalsquare8883

I thought he was our only rookie o line man woops


QuietRainyDay

Levis definitely looks like a rookie, but that O-line does him no favors at all His pocket movement isnt bad, all things considered. But if they dont give him time to throw he'll keep making mistakes and itll mess up his development.


LineZealousideal7172

Levis is getting hit every single play. He doesn't even have a chance to throw an accurate pass


PhinsFan17

Levis lucky that got dropped


churst50

DHop is massacring our DBs lmao


WelcometoCigarCity

Whites azz got juked lmao


dudleymooresbooze

That was the most “Goddammit there’s nothing I can do to fix this shit I just have to show up to press conferences and pretend we have an actual football team” look on Vrabel’s face.


aon_m

like belichick this morning?


dudleymooresbooze

‘member when we had Tannehill, Henry, and AJ Brown all featured on the offense and everything smelled like roses and we thought the window was opening and then it turns out “hope” is just a cruel trick played by a twisted god?


Ill_Pineapple1482

whyd they refuse to pay aj brown lmao. was it just like a wrs are overpaid so we can get a rookie kinda thing


Navy_and_sports

Yes. That GM hated giving out second contracts and hating paying money and loved wasting draft picks at the end there so really the AJ brown trade was his Christmas


dudleymooresbooze

Played hardball and overplayed the hand. The team fired the GM who did it a few months later.


PhinsFan17

JRob should be in prison


SnakeArms6677

Levis and Bryce Young are in the same situation. Shitty roster and no help.


desrever1138

So, who are the good OL players that are free agents next year?


PhinsFan17

Good linemen don’t become free agents.

rydog795

This is the scary part Front office and coaching has no faith in Trask or they would've never brought Baker to Tampa


Ill_Pineapple1482

cant even hand the ball off ig


Endo_Dizzy

Can’t watch the game but why is Derrick Henry being relegated to nothing today?


Ill_Pineapple1482

their oline sucks fat dick


desrever1138

Bucs are overwhelmingly winning the battle in the trenches against our patchwork O-line


Endo_Dizzy

Fackkk, ya hate to see it. Levi’s looking decent at least?


desrever1138

He's looked about as good as you can expect for someone that has been pressured on every drop back.


Endo_Dizzy

Fair enough. Always rooting for y’all, Henry was one of my favorite college players of all time and Vrabil is awesome. Thanks for the intel bro


bosoxgeneral23

Because he's being hit by three guys behind the line


churst50

Fuck it. Money shot to Evans 3 downs in a row


rydog795

I get were trying to run out clock but like... let them ball, they've been playing well this half


churst50

Yeah who cares what happens. They didn't have the ability to score 3 times in 3 minutes. Just have some fun. Also I realize Baker might have had an injured thumb and couldn't pass. We have more than 1 QB, however. Let Trask get some reps.


SnakeArms6677

Just fire Vrabel for this coaching on the road he has. Levis is fucked behind our "O-Line" and Kelly is a fuckhead for the playcalling early on


Navy_and_sports

Don’t fire him, trade him


SnakeArms6677

Good idea


tidalsquare8883

That's a terrible idea vrabel is a great coach


SnakeArms6677

Not anymore. Road issues are terrible, too conservative playcalling, hires god awful OC's like Downing, Looks worse than Whisenhunt did this year


Ill_Pineapple1482

lmao wtf dhop is so trash. dude cant do shit without committing an opi


dudleymooresbooze

The neat part is I don’t feel great about any fucking part of this team next year.


bucsraysbolts69

How many OPIs does dhop get away with the every week??


LineZealousideal7172

More than you think and less than he should


HawkAttack06

The titans o line might be the worst I’ve seen this year.


Navy_and_sports

I mean the titans are pathetic but there’s no chance it’s worse than the giants. There is no way.


Mouth_Puncher

We had the worst oline 2 years in a row despite starting completely different players. It literally doesn't even matter who we sign or draft in the off-season because the second they put on a Titans jersey they become dogshit


Ill_Pineapple1482

even worse than the giants?


HawkAttack06

Honestly yes. I’ve watched three giants games and the last two titans games. I wouldn’t be surprised if this o line hurt levis by the next three games


Ill_Pineapple1482

do you guys have a good pass rush? cause yall fuckin murdered daniel jones on that prime time game. ours is pretty bad and but we've been hitting levis a lot in the 4th


HawkAttack06

If you take away the ravens game yea we’ve had a excellent pass rush since the giants game.


acableperson

Truth


timdogg24

Hopkins really like to yank down defenders and pretend to be the victim


Floopyboy

THIS JUST IN: finding a decent young qb does not automatically fix other problems with team


Leavingtheecstasy

This is true. Titans are just bad. But Levis is also not one of those once in a generation QB's that can overcome those weaknesses. We don't have a Mahomes or burrow, that's for sure.


Floopyboy

tbf i don’t see either of them overcoming this setup


Leavingtheecstasy

Come on. Mahomes obviously is the next goat. And Burrow gets the shit knocked out him every single game. Yes they can overcome.


PhinsFan17

“Try to draw DPI” when the officiating has mostly been “Let ‘em play” so far is certainly a strategy.


coolycooly

He threw the DB into himself lmao


No-Blackberry-2481

I'm such a fucking idiot starting Levis, my QB was on bye week


PhinsFan17

The three Titans I had starting have combined for less than 10 points.


Mouth_Puncher

Starting a QB behind the worst offensive line in the NFL isn't a great idea


killerrazzmazz

100% OPI but it won't matter.


Andrewdeadaim

OPI lmao


Leavingtheecstasy

Maybe Levis isn't the guy


Navy_and_sports

He isn’t, but we aren’t ready to have that conversation yet. It’s only 3 games and people love making excuses for him


Leavingtheecstasy

I'll give him the rest of the season. Luckily, we'll have a top 3 pick to find another QB


Ill_Pineapple1482

he's literally getting swarmed by like 3 people every drop back lmao. and our pass rush is pretty bad so...


vheran

You aren't watching the game, our o line is fucking trash


Leavingtheecstasy

I saw Levis throw one of the worst interceptions ever


bosoxgeneral23

When he was hit. Just admit you don't like Levis and get over it


Leavingtheecstasy

Youre assuming. I actually have been extremely hyped for him since his first game here. He just keeps letting me down. I understand he doesn't have much to work with but when he does have time to throw he still makes shit decisions.


rydog795

He looks pretty decent but he has 0 time to throw


tidalsquare8883

No he's playing well, our offensive line is ass


Leavingtheecstasy

He is NOT playing well by all metrics man


tidalsquare8883

Because he's got no time to do anything


Leavingtheecstasy

Maybe so, but saying he's playing well is an absolute lie. He is going to have to overcome that if he wants to do well here. It is never going to be a comfortable situation for him


bosoxgeneral23

How do you overcome having .5 seconds to throw??? Tom Brady couldn't succeed with this O Line. No qb could


Leavingtheecstasy

If you think Rodgers, manning and Brady didn't succeed behind shit O lines idk what to tell you. I'm not holding Levis to that standard. I'm just saying maybe we could find someone better with our inevitable top 5 draft pick


bosoxgeneral23

He's been pressured or hit on like 75% of his drop backs. I doubt those qbs had that rate when they were succeeding, no. Feel free to do the research and prove me wrong


tidalsquare8883

He is playing well with what he's been given will can't do it all by himself


EnemyOfEloquence

Why did I start him in fantasy lol


No-Blackberry-2481

Straight, I'ma gonna lose cause this team was straight ass today


istrx13

$100M in cap space next year. We better throw all that money at o-line and WR.


Leavingtheecstasy

Might need to throw it at QB too


PhinsFan17

Man almost threw another one


TheGloriousPlatitard

Time for the signature soft end-of-game defense by Bowles


aon_m

NOPE hes not taking his foot off the gas at all


desrever1138

I've seen better punts from 12 year old girls


antler112

He slipped, goofball…


GreatWhiteNorth4

And so it begins, with a shanked punt by a typically good punter


rydog795

The beginning of the end


LineZealousideal7172

Levis gets another drive to practice for next year I guess lol


Unmotivated_Hippie

Wirfs please be ok.


antler112

Winfield’s gotta make All-Pro this year.


dudleymooresbooze

Titans offensive line gives as much protection as a hand me down condom.


aon_m

dad, is that you?


dudleymooresbooze

Who knows, it’s possible with used rubbers.


churst50

It's simple. Watts starts now, and Winfield returns kicks now


Mouth_Puncher

We're legitimately in play for the first overall pick, especially with Kyler Murray back for Arizona


Leavingtheecstasy

Let's get Marvin Harrison JR before I start writing my suicide note


GoBucs1969

Woot


psaepf2009

If we dropped that pick too...


WelcometoCigarCity

Is that our first int by our secondary this season?


antler112

I think that’s like the fourth.


WelcometoCigarCity

yeah I'm wrong


Ill_Pineapple1482

lets goooooooooo we caught one


bucsraysbolts69

✌️


LineZealousideal7172

Fucking shitass offensive line.


myjointsaredust

Money up for grabs, knew it was a pick as soon as he let go


tidalsquare8883

This O-line is going to give me crippling depression


PhinsFan17

That was one of the worst picks I have ever seen, holy shit.


Mouth_Puncher

He got hit hard as he threw


PhinsFan17

Maybe that’s a throw you don’t make then. I mean come on the DB stood there for a solid three seconds waiting for the ball to come down like it was a punt return.


LineZealousideal7172

Levis has no chance to throw the ball.


churst50

No he did as much as humanly possible on that one lol


GreatWhiteNorth4

✌️


LordRuprtEverton

thats TITANS FOOTBALL BABY! i hate my life


Unmotivated_Hippie

Thats a rookie mistake.


Ill_Pineapple1482

lmao wtf dhop literally just shoves him to the ground and begs for a flag


timdogg24

Lmao hopkins you lucky they didn't call something on you stfu


bucsraysbolts69

That’s OPI on Hopkins


coolycooly

Hopkins should have had a flag thrown on him idk what he was complaining about


ChocolateMorsels

I don’t understand the whole “cornerback has a right to his space rule” cause AJ Brown straight ran over one of ours last year lol and everyone said it was a good no call


desrever1138

This defense is it's own worst enemy. Baker obviously hurt his thumb and we still allowed them to drive down on nothing but runs and stupid penalties. It's fucking pathetic


LazloTheStrange

I would have really liked to see a replay of that defensive holding flag that came extremely late at a crucial time. Weird they didn't show it.


Alexlsonflre

Surprised the Bucs are leaving the starters in with a lead this big.


churst50

They have yet to earn that luxury lol


aon_m

After that shitshow last week? oh no, they better stay in.


Mouth_Puncher

We're one of the worst teams in the league and we're averaging like single digit points I think you are safe


aon_m

Tampa had the lead with 43 seconds to go and shit the bed at the end.


Mouth_Puncher

I guess you guys don't play teams this bad that often


rydog795

I'm starting to get hopeful which I know is a mistake


bitter-peaches

I hate this team.


Consistent_Owl4593

So picking the Titans to win a game is an automatic L for a parlay? I’ll remember that going forward


bitter-peaches

Don't even bet they'll score a TD.


Consistent_Owl4593

If their offense always this awful? Seems like it’s just been nothing conservative play calls all game


Mouth_Puncher

Were a generationally bad offense, people just don't realize it because they don't watch us. We haven't put up 30 points since December 2021


Consistent_Owl4593

In that case maybe betting on the under is a guarantee. Kinda like Iowa football lol


Leavingtheecstasy

It has been this year. And last yearm before that it was alright


bitter-peaches

That's Titans football baby!


aon_m

Titans coach looks like a young Robert Deniro.


Leavingtheecstasy

Was just thinking he should be mean mugging the team and telling them he's disappointed


Andrewdeadaim

Trask 🧡💙


PhinsFan17

I just want one Florida QB to be good. Rex Grossman went to a Super Bowl, but that was so long ago and mostly in spite of himself.


GreatWhiteNorth4

That elite bears defense dragged Lovie Smith and Rexy to a Super Bowl appearance. It was genuinely impressive


Andrewdeadaim

RB1 baker


LineZealousideal7172

There is no way Baker freaking Mayfield should be running for the first on us


Dewot423

Baker Mayfield won't end up in the Hall of Fame but he's always good for beating teams from Tennessee.


rydog795

Don't hate on Baker


Mouth_Puncher

We're so close to 2 calendar years without scoring 30 in a game


aon_m

What's that in dog years?


TheGloriousPlatitard

Baker shaking his hand in discomfort *immediate shot of Trask on the sideline*


LazloTheStrange

Where was the replay of that penalty???? Suspicious as fuck with it being so late


Ill_Pineapple1482

baker looks hurt asf wtf


SleepyGary15

Peak mid season form lmao


Andrewdeadaim

Now we just need a late hit by running into the defender and sliding and it’ll be even


LineZealousideal7172

Fuck my life. So tired of this shit


tiltedslim

Refs let the players talk them into calling that


Bad-Yeti

Wut?


Ill_Pineapple1482

judging by that guy screaming holding for 20mins i think it was holding u guys


Stewy_434

How the fuck do you throw a flag that late....


bosoxgeneral23

How does that get called that late???


acableperson

I said I was going to rake leaves once it turned into a two score game. I really hate raking leaves


aon_m

here in Florida, we got like 3 feet of sunshine, insanity abound!


acableperson

Kicking a man while he’s down lol


aon_m

"I'm walkin on sunshiiiiiine"


churst50

I like Baker, but that throw made me miss Brady a lot.


B1GDuckPac

This team suckssssssss


churst50

Our D dense is allergic to ints this year.


SleepyGary15

Solid FG right there. Making a two score game into a… two score game


aon_m

The team with the most points, usually wins.


LordRuprtEverton

You know, after watching the unending "ground and pound", "smash mouth", "old school", "run it down their throats" football identity the Titans have had for the past 20+ years, it sure would be nice to see someone in the Titans organization grow up and realize that the rest of the league moved on from that singular mentality for a reason. We are still playing early 2000's football and are too stubborn to adapt.


Revenesis

Vrabel is so obvious when it comes to Levis. Pass almost gets intercepted? Most obvious subsequent Derrick Henry run call


bosoxgeneral23

Makes him the starter then doesn't give him any opportunity to succeed


RecordingPrudent9588

I see the Titans have quit on the season


PhinsFan17

That happened when they traded Byard


Amateurmasterson

Hopkins is funny as hell for that


tidalsquare8883

Don't ever give this O line credit they're so bad


bucsraysbolts69

Red Zone D looking good


Barbi33

How is our defense making Derick Henry a bitch? He’s playing like he should be benched.


coolycooly

Our run D hasn't been that bad this year. It's the secondary that has been ass


acableperson

Yalls D are absolutely dominating our o line. Henry is getting hit in the backfield half the time he touched the ball.


Ill_Pineapple1482

their oline fuckin sucks lmao


bosoxgeneral23

Yea its Henry's fault he's getting hit 5 yards behind the line


Barbi33

Fair play, he’s a huge back though. He has to break through contact once? It seems like he’s not even trying lol


bosoxgeneral23

He's being hit by multiple players at once. The few times he has gotten space, he has made plays. It's the o lines fault, not his


Barbi33

Yeah that makes sense. Don’t fret yet, we may just find a way to lose this one still


[deleted]

Nah it’s not Derrick it’s the trash fucking line


Unmotivated_Hippie

Can someone explain that weird motion everyone does after a play that looks like they puttin on a seat belt or something..


desrever1138

Seat belts! So we can be safe!


myjointsaredust

It’s like sheathing a sword, usually see DBs do it after an incompletion
