Can anyone give me a quick rundown? Would be much appreciated. Looks like we sucked running the ball, as usual though. We didn't really even try to establish the run. Was a pretty pass heavy game, far more 3 wide/spread/hurry up concepts than we've seen in any other game. Offense moved the ball well, just didn't score TDs in the redzone. This game was pretty similar to the Oakland game to start the year. Defense wasn't great but made a play or two, offense couldn't punch it in the endzone.

KingTitan Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 I know people don't want to make the playoffs, because they feel it's the easiest road to firing Murlakey. But I want to make it, because we could at least make it to the divisional round. We could realistically beat any team in that round. Then we'd play the Patriots and it would end there.....lol But I want to experience the playoffs again. Don't care how we get there. We could be dragged in kicking and screaming going the other way, but that one extra game means a lot to me personally. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And KC or Pitt at their place sounds like a disaster waiting to happened. We did beat the Jags at their place, so I'm slightly more confident going against them than the other teams. That would mean beating them 3 times this year, which is doable (1999 anyone?) but awfully tough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TitanLegend Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 Even if Jags aren't sitting anyone next week just off of injuries they might be hurting quite a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which would you pick: Option 1: Win, make playoffs, lose round 1, experience at minimum 2+ years of Mularkey (which likely means missing playoffs 2018, another first round loss 2019, and another extension, ala Marvin Lewis) or Option 2: Lose, miss playoffs, 50-50 chance to fire Mularkey and replace him with someone who could ignite our offense and play to our quarterback's strength? Obviously Option 2 downside is still keeping Mularkey, but you gotta believe another lost season would seal his fate for certain, whereas a playoff berth probably means extension.

The uncertainty of each makes both less than appealing. . I'd take playoffs and uncertainty of future over no playoffs and uncertainty. I do need changes to the offense. I need more guarantee that change happens to be 100% either way. If you tell me we gonna make offensive changes with no playoffs vs. Playoffs and things stay same then I'd go no playoff.

Titans fan 617 Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 I don’t think we fire Mularkey regardless if we miss the playoffs so I want to make the playoffs but if you told me if we missed the playoffs and they would definitely fire Mularkey I’d be for it as bad as that sounds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah y'all are the better team. I'm out of likes, but thank you, sir, for the props. Good luck to y'all. I know you're in a bit of a weird situation with your coaching staff, but you have a talented team. Marcus is going through the sort of struggles that are common for young QBs. He'll end up being a good one. I think things could pan out with Mularkey if he were willing to adapt (both his staff and his offense), but I have a bad feeling that he won't. He reminds me of a Fisher or a Jack Del Rio. He's just too stuck in doing things the way he's always done them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
