One hundred percent of the time, 61 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 2: I forget that the Titans sideline for the second half 62 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 2: of the game, especially if we have a noonkick, will 63 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:47,520 Speaker 2: be in complete shade, right because of the direction of 64 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 2: the stadium and the sun in the sky. Like this 65 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:57,920 Speaker 2: happens every single week, ten weeks a year for thirteen years, 66 00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 2: and you still a lot of a lot of time, 67 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 2: and I just cannot compute in my brain.

I can't 135 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 2: handle it. Well, it was a COVID game, so I 136 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 2: was up in the stands, and the stands collect snow, 137 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 2: oh yeah, and there were no fans so they didn't 138 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:32,479 Speaker 2: shovel the stands as they normally do. So I was 139 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 2: standing in about like six inches of snow. My toes 140 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:38,359 Speaker 2: got so cold I had to leave stand under a 141 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:40,000 Speaker 2: heater and then come back down. 142 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 1: Well, I'll be wearing two pairs of socks, two pairs 143 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 1: of pants, and four four shirts or jackets. 144 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 3: You need a hat to Oh, I have a new 145 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:51,679 Speaker 3: Titans to boggin. 146 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 1: Well with the sweater you're wearing, that's perfect, and I'll 147 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 1: be wearing that. 148 00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 4: That will look nice. 149 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, no, I've got the whole thing already napped 150 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 1: out for this, for this Sunday perfect amy.

They march all the way down 153 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 1: the field, get inside the ten yard line, drive stalls. 154 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 1: You kind of kick a chip shot fuel goal. After that, though, 155 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 1: pretty disappointing. You give up a touchdown, a fumble on 156 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 1: a kickoff that I was a little surprised was overturned. 157 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: Chim Ri dk is losing the football as he's going 158 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:34,680 Speaker 1: to the ground. I thought his shoulder was already down. 159 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 1: Evidently I was wrong. I was wrong about a lot 160 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 1: when it comes to the officials and what I thought 161 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 1: on Sunday, and then the ram or the the. 162 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:50,240 Speaker 3: Oh boy, goshoot, did we play yesterday, Jackson? 163 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:53,760 Speaker 4: Thank you jack My goodness, Monday. 164 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 1: Jaguars co back down, score a touchdown and kick a 165 00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 1: two and score a two point conversion, and it's all 166 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 1: all of a sudden fifteen to three the next time 167 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 1: the Titans touched the football after that promising first drive, 168 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 1: and it just felt like anything that could go wrong did. 169 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:10,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, it really did. 170 00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 2: And what made it extra frustrating is it came off 171 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:15,200 Speaker 2: of two games where you felt like there was a 172 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 2: lot of momentum and this felt like after that initial 173 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 2: kind of offense defense, they both go, you feel good 174 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 2: about what's happening, and then it just felt like the 175 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 2: bottom kind of dropped out. Nobody could really get traction 176 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 2: for anything. There's not really any numbers that are overwhelmingly 177 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 2: impressive or exciting. This is just one of those games 178 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 2: that you've got to like burn it and move on. 179 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 3: Well, if you can't tell, I've tried, because I don't 180 00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:43,839 Speaker 3: even remember who we played, but you really flushed it. 181 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:44,560 Speaker 3: I did. 182 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 1: Tony Pollard started strongly. You had ten carries for sixty yards, 183 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 1: and the ground game looked good at the beginning of 184 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:53,960 Speaker 1: the game. Unfortunately, just weren't able to really use the 185 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:56,320 Speaker 1: ground game throughout the game because this coach Max said 186 00:08:56,360 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 1: it was a it was a separated score. But yeah, 187 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 1: like you said, I would like to burn it now 188 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:05,440 Speaker 1: I know. Coach McCoy is going to be in here 189 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:07,960 Speaker 1: and he's going to be talking about how, you know, 190 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,400 Speaker 1: after the game and on Monday, you have to address it. 191 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:13,320 Speaker 1: You have to go through it, you have to correct it, 192 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:15,680 Speaker 1: and then you burn it right and you move on 193 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:16,440 Speaker 1: to play the Browns. 194 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, and you also have to remember it's never as 195 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 2: good as you think it is, and it's never as 196 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 2: bad as you think it is. And so after he 197 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:26,319 Speaker 2: has the opportunity to review the tape, I'm interested to 198 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:28,960 Speaker 2: hear we as to say on this show about some 199 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 2: of the things that he observed and what he saw, 200 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:33,680 Speaker 2: what some of his takeaways were. So definitely something to 201 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:36,560 Speaker 2: stay tuned for. But yeah, he can't burn it quite 202 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 2: as quickly as you can tease. But well, I think 203 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 2: a lot of people are going to be ready to 204 00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:45,319 Speaker 2: turn the page and head on over to Cleveland, even 205 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 2: in the snow, to get that taste out of their mouth. 206 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 3: They would like that. 207 00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 1: There are some a few other positives though, that I'd 208 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 1: like to point out. Defensively, I thought the Titans played 209 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:58,320 Speaker 1: a strong game. The Jags were three or thirteen on 210 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 1: third down, They only had two hundred seventy two total yards. 211 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,360 Speaker 1: They only had seventy yards rushing. This is one of 212 00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 1: the better ground attacks in the NFL. Travis etn has 213 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 1: had a good year over eight hundred yards rushing, but 214 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 1: they they held him in check and the Jags committed 215 00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 1: a lot of penalties. Now the officials, it felt like 216 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,920 Speaker 1: they were required to throw a flag on almost a 217 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:23,080 Speaker 1: play by play basis in this game. The Titans had 218 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 1: ten but the Jags had thirteen in the game. And 219 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:30,320 Speaker 1: Chim Dka had another great return in special teams. So 220 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 1: those are some positives. And Jeffrey Simmons all pro level 221 00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:39,079 Speaker 1: season continues. Four pressures, another sack. 222 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:39,360 Speaker 5: In the game. 223 00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:43,200 Speaker 3: He has been outstanding throughout this entire year. 224 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:45,719 Speaker 2: You know, I mean, he just continues to show up, 225 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 2: and I mean, what an asset to this Titans team. 226 00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 2: You can't say it enough, like Big Jeff is. It 227 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 2: feels like every week he just puts it on his 228 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:56,440 Speaker 2: back and says, all right, let's go, and he does 229 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:59,559 Speaker 2: what he needs to do. And I mean, his leadership 230 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 2: is great, the stuff he does in the community is great, 231 00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:05,800 Speaker 2: but the way that he just shows up so consistency 232 00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 2: week after week after week after week, that's what you 233 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:10,319 Speaker 2: need on this Titans team. 234 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 1: Yes you do, and it's important to carry him with 235 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 1: you to Cleveland this weekend. And really it's a matchup 236 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:22,720 Speaker 1: of two of the best players in the National Football League. 237 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:27,319 Speaker 1: The Cleveland Browns have been going through struggles for many 238 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 1: years with one of the best, if not the very 239 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 1: best players in the entire National Football League and Miles Garrett. 240 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 1: This guy is a sack machine. And the Titans have 241 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:43,520 Speaker 1: this outstanding player in Jeff Simmons, So it's going to 242 00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 1: be a Garrett versus Simmons show. Cleveland is coming off 243 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 1: a game where they lost twenty six to eight at 244 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 1: home to the San Francisco forty nine ers, and they 245 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 1: struggled mightily. They were inefficient on third down, zero for 246 00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 1: four on fourth down. 247 00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 3: They had four. 248 00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:02,400 Speaker 1: Fumbles in the game, amy they lost a couple of them. 249 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:04,840 Speaker 1: They only had one hundred and fifteen yards passing for 250 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 1: Shador Sanders Dion Sanderson, the quarterback of the Cleveland Browns, 251 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:13,080 Speaker 1: who after the game, Kevin Stefanski, their head coach, says, 252 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 1: will start against the Titans on Sundays. So, and if 253 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 1: you look at the overall season statistics for Cleveland compared 254 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 1: to the Titans, it's pretty much neck and neck. This 255 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:27,680 Speaker 1: is a game you look at and you say, all right, 256 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 1: the Titans have to win some of these games for 257 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:32,840 Speaker 1: the development of their young players. 258 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:33,680 Speaker 3: They've got to do it. 259 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,440 Speaker 1: And you point it this week and say, this is 260 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:38,680 Speaker 1: a golden opportunity to get a victory. 261 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,560 Speaker 2: Absolutely, there are so many things that it feels like 262 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:45,240 Speaker 2: the Titans matchup really well against the Cleveland Browns. It 263 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 2: feels like there's a lot of opportunity in that regard. 264 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:51,320 Speaker 2: As you were talking about the rookie on rookie crime. 265 00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 2: Here with two rookie quarterbacks, I really like I feel 266 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:56,719 Speaker 2: like it evens the playing field, gives both the opportunity 267 00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:58,760 Speaker 2: to really show what they can do and for cam 268 00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 2: Ward to show why he was selected where he was 269 00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 2: in that draft. 270 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:04,560 Speaker 4: I overall, I think. 271 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 2: You're one hundred percent right. I think this is a 272 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:09,160 Speaker 2: great kind of redemption opportunity for this Titans team. And 273 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:11,320 Speaker 2: I think that if they can rally around that and 274 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,720 Speaker 2: that can be one of the motivating factors is hey, listen, 275 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:19,000 Speaker 2: that was really rough, but look where we can go. Now, 276 00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:21,200 Speaker 2: look what we can do to get ourselves back on 277 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:24,360 Speaker 2: track to write this ship a little bit. And this 278 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 2: is a great opportunity to do that. And there's the 279 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 2: whole weather. 280 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:27,880 Speaker 4: Of it all. 281 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 2: I mean, they've played in a cold weather game, They're 282 00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:33,079 Speaker 2: about to play in another cold weather game. It's not 283 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,560 Speaker 2: like there's going to be a huge adjustment. I kept 284 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:38,320 Speaker 2: thinking about those Jacks players and like, aren't they chilly? 285 00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:41,199 Speaker 2: Like they're not used to this. This is a I mean, 286 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 2: and really, I know I'm being a little bit silly 287 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 2: why I say that, but like, there really is a 288 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 2: weather factor that comes into play there. Snow is a 289 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 2: foreign thing for a lot of teams in the National 290 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:53,360 Speaker 2: Football League, and the Titans have an opportunity having gotten 291 00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:58,480 Speaker 2: that cold weather hit to continue on now and hopefully 292 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:01,000 Speaker 2: it bodes well for them in Cleveland. 293 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:05,959 Speaker 1: The forecast this week in Cleveland the highs are in 294 00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:10,080 Speaker 1: the low thirties all week, with lows in the teens. 295 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:14,680 Speaker 1: There's snow being forecasted early in the week and there's 296 00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 1: a fifty chance of snow on game day high a 297 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 1: thirty one low of twenty three. 298 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 4: Well, I mean, call me you sure you don't if 299 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:29,359 Speaker 4: you want to chat or something. 300 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 3: I'll be here. 301 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:33,920 Speaker 1: I'll be in the warmth by my fire in Nashville 302 00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 1: if you need me. 303 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:37,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, I will be here.

It started in a good way for 337 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 1: the Titans. Got off the field, forced a Jaguars punt, 338 00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:25,520 Speaker 1: and then you go down the field. You march down 339 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:28,680 Speaker 1: the field, six minute drive almost to get inside the 340 00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 1: ten yard line. Ended up with a chip shot field 341 00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 1: goal for Joey Sly and you grab that three to 342 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 1: nothing lead. But it felt like after you weren't capable 343 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:40,600 Speaker 1: of stopping the Jags and they get a touchdown there 344 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:43,720 Speaker 1: that fumble, It just changed all the momentum in the game. 345 00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, well, you know, we wanted to get out to 346 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,040 Speaker 5: a fast start.

Get off to a fast start. 348 00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:50,720 Speaker 5: And that's what the defense did, you know, finishing with 349 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:52,200 Speaker 5: a sack and then we go down there get the 350 00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 5: field goal, you know, and then unfortunately there's a turnover, 351 00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:58,480 Speaker 5: and those are game changing plays. Yeah, at some point 352 00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:00,440 Speaker 5: in time, you don't know when they're gonna come. It 353 00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 5: kind of changed the momentum of the game there a 354 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:03,920 Speaker 5: little bit, and they got a touchdown off of it. 355 00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 5: So you know, we can't have that happen. 356 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:10,159 Speaker 1: I know that you're going to talk about turnovers, but 357 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:14,480 Speaker 1: from an execution standpoint, coach, what has to change offensively. 358 00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 5: Well, we got to do all little things right, you know, 359 00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 5: whether it's a progression by the quarterback, whether it's winning 360 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:22,679 Speaker 5: versus man coverage, whether it's picking up a pressure whatever. 361 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:24,880 Speaker 5: There's a couple of breakdowns there where the halfback didn't 362 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:28,119 Speaker 5: scan and protection twice in the game, so there's a 363 00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 5: couple drops in the game. So there's a number of 364 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:32,680 Speaker 5: things that you look at on every play, and that's 365 00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 5: on a weekly basis. But there were just too many 366 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:36,600 Speaker 5: of them this week to beat a good football team. 367 00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 1: Now, it started, as we said, with a good first drive. 368 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:44,120 Speaker 1: Tony Pollard was effective on that first drive. He ended 369 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:46,920 Speaker 1: up with ten carries in sixty yards, and I noticed 370 00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 1: there were several of those, as we call him a 371 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:53,600 Speaker 1: gap runs where he's following Corey levin your center in 372 00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:55,520 Speaker 1: the game down the field. What did you think about 373 00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 1: Corey's ability to get off to a good start and 374 00:17:57,840 --> 00:17:58,879 Speaker 1: the way Tony ran. 375 00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 5: Well, Corey did out saying job of stepping in not surprised, 376 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:05,040 Speaker 5: although because the way he ran the offseason. You know, 377 00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 5: he had plenty of reps in training camp and you 378 00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 5: just saw he's a veteran. He knows how to play 379 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:11,840 Speaker 5: the game. He works the right way, he's great with 380 00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:13,919 Speaker 5: the younger player. So it wasn't shocking all when he 381 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:15,840 Speaker 5: stepped up in there and got the opportunity to play 382 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:18,120 Speaker 5: this week. And then Tony, I was happy for him 383 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,280 Speaker 5: to get the ten carries, get sixty yards. You know, 384 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 5: he hasn't had that production in a while. You know. Unfortunately, 385 00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:25,320 Speaker 5: with the way the game went and the flow of 386 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:27,399 Speaker 5: the game and the score, you know, you wish you 387 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:30,639 Speaker 5: could get those carries into you know, eighteen nineteen twenty 388 00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:32,840 Speaker 5: something carries for him and then you know, maybe one 389 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:35,359 Speaker 5: hundred yards at some point in time. So, but he 390 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:36,800 Speaker 5: was very efficient running the football. 391 00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 1: He was we look at defensively in the way that 392 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:44,080 Speaker 1: the Titans played. The Jags were just three of thirteen 393 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:46,680 Speaker 1: on third down. They only had two hundred and seventy 394 00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:49,600 Speaker 1: two total yards. They only had seventy yards rushing. This 395 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:52,400 Speaker 1: is one of the better rushing attacks in the NFL, 396 00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:55,720 Speaker 1: and the Jags committed thirteen penalties in the game. 397 00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 3: What did you think of your defense's performance, Well. 398 00:18:57,720 --> 00:18:59,119 Speaker 5: They did a nice job. You know, you look at it. 399 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:01,679 Speaker 5: I think the average two point six per rush there, 400 00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:04,879 Speaker 5: the third down defense was great. You just look at 401 00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:06,440 Speaker 5: the game. You look at there's a couple of explosive 402 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 5: plays in the second series, I think it was a 403 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:10,680 Speaker 5: twenty six yarder or fifty yarder and then the one 404 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:13,360 Speaker 5: touchdown you know, a cuple series after that, and it's 405 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:15,760 Speaker 5: just you know, there's a couple of explosive plays you eliminate. 406 00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:17,880 Speaker 5: But other than that, you know the efficiency of stopping 407 00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:19,680 Speaker 5: the run and getting off the field and third down, 408 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:23,359 Speaker 5: the number of three and outs that they had, you know, Unfortunately, 409 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:25,639 Speaker 5: there was a couple of penalties that extended some drives 410 00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:26,800 Speaker 5: for them, one at the end of the half and 411 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:29,479 Speaker 5: then won the second court or second half to start. 412 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:33,119 Speaker 5: So it's just it's unfortunate we had those penalties because otherwise, 413 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:34,360 Speaker 5: you know, it was a good day for him. 414 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:36,280 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna try to get you any trouble kind 415 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,160 Speaker 1: of talking about the penalties, but there were a lot 416 00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:40,879 Speaker 1: called in the game. Thirteen on the Jags, ten on 417 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:43,520 Speaker 1: the Titans. It just didn't feel like it felt like 418 00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:45,240 Speaker 1: it was hard to get a rhythm in the game 419 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 1: because of that. 420 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:47,679 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a lot of penalties for one game. You know, 421 00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:49,239 Speaker 5: there's too many of them, and I'm just gonna look 422 00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:50,640 Speaker 5: at this. You know, on our side of the ball, 423 00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:53,360 Speaker 5: we can't have those penalties to extend drives or make 424 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:55,840 Speaker 5: it that much more difficult for the offense to get 425 00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:57,399 Speaker 5: a first down. Things like that. Those are things you 426 00:19:57,400 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 5: have to do. 427 00:19:57,640 --> 00:19:57,720 Speaker 3: You know. 428 00:19:57,800 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 5: It's really all three phases that the penalties were in 429 00:19:59,560 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 5: this week. 430 00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:03,239 Speaker 1: Though, let's get back to the defense. Jeff Simmons had 431 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:05,679 Speaker 1: to miss a few games unfortunately due to injury. He 432 00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:07,919 Speaker 1: looks like he's back to the way he was playing 433 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:10,879 Speaker 1: before the injury. Coach, he had four pressures in the game, 434 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:13,160 Speaker 1: a couple of tackles for loss, a sack. 435 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:14,480 Speaker 3: What do you think of ninety eight? 436 00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:17,200 Speaker 5: He dominated the game inside, not shocking and all. That's 437 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:19,240 Speaker 5: who he is. It's great to see him playing that way. 438 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:22,240 Speaker 5: You know, he's the leader of the team and he 439 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:24,080 Speaker 5: physically dominated the inside. 440 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 1: Jahad Ward also with four pressures in the game, he 441 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:30,680 Speaker 1: had a sack and Kevin Winston had a sack. 442 00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:33,119 Speaker 5: Well, it was great to see the defense get after Trevor. 443 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 5: They did a great job. You know. Unfortunately they'll tell 444 00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:38,240 Speaker 5: you today too, there's a couple of left out there 445 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:40,439 Speaker 5: whether and that's Trevor. You know, he spins out of 446 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:42,480 Speaker 5: a lot of things. But I think Thenard and the 447 00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:44,359 Speaker 5: staff did a great job putting a plan together how 448 00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:45,720 Speaker 5: they're going to attack him and get after and the 449 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:47,560 Speaker 5: players went out and executed and got off the quarterback. 450 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 1: You have been in so many division battles for the 451 00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:55,480 Speaker 1: quarter century you've been in the National Football League. What 452 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:59,399 Speaker 1: we saw on Sunday at Nissan Stadium with some of 453 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:02,159 Speaker 1: the bickering back and forth, does that just speak to 454 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,320 Speaker 1: a rivalry game in the National Football League. 455 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:07,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a typical division game late in the year. 456 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:10,000 Speaker 5: There's a lot of lot on the line going out 457 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:13,440 Speaker 5: there playing against a division opponent, and that's what usually 458 00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:14,200 Speaker 5: ends up happening. 459 00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:16,560 Speaker 1: How much time do you spend on a game like that, 460 00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:18,359 Speaker 1: coach when things don't go your way? 461 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:20,560 Speaker 5: Oh, you look at it. You look at every little 462 00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 5: detail of that's every game you go into as a 463 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:24,919 Speaker 5: coaching staff. You come in Monday morning, you look at 464 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:27,199 Speaker 5: every little detail, and you go and you talk to 465 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:29,679 Speaker 5: the players and say, you know, hey, listen, this is 466 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:31,680 Speaker 5: we all got to get better. And that's regardless of 467 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:33,920 Speaker 5: where it is in the season. What's your record is 468 00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:36,400 Speaker 5: you're always trying to make these players better. And that's 469 00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:38,080 Speaker 5: the one thing I think you'll see some of these 470 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:41,240 Speaker 5: younger players, especially growth that we've seen from these players, 471 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:42,960 Speaker 5: and that's by because they want to be coached hard, 472 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 5: they want to be told the truth, they want to 473 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 5: be coached. They're going to make some mistakes. We're moving 474 00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:50,119 Speaker 5: some guys around a different position, so that's going to 475 00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:52,000 Speaker 5: come up. So the key is don't make the same 476 00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:53,359 Speaker 5: mistake twice moving down the road. 477 00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, and that makes a ton of sense. 478 00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:57,600 Speaker 1: But because I think it's it's normal for the rest of 479 00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:01,199 Speaker 1: us the world to say, burn the tay forget about it, 480 00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 1: but you have to learn from it. 481 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:04,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, you learn from every game, and there's always something 482 00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 5: you're going to learn from. And hey, listen, you also 483 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:08,639 Speaker 5: want to point out the good things too. There are 484 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:11,480 Speaker 5: certain guys who stepped up and did some really nice 485 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:13,200 Speaker 5: things in the game. You always want to point out 486 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:15,120 Speaker 5: to those guys too. And it's not just hey listen, 487 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 5: let's just not beat them up for all the negatives, 488 00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:19,640 Speaker 5: but let's also talk about the positive things, and let's 489 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:22,400 Speaker 5: do more of the positives and minimize the negatives. 490 00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:26,480 Speaker 1: I know that in this last month, I've said it 491 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:28,280 Speaker 1: a number of times. I know you feel the same 492 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 1: way that the Titans were going to win some of 493 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:33,639 Speaker 1: these games. That we felt strongly that the Titans were 494 00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:36,199 Speaker 1: going to win some of these games. When it doesn't 495 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 1: happen with a young football team, how do you keep 496 00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:39,880 Speaker 1: them hopeful? 497 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 5: Well, Number one, they have to stick together. Everybody, you know, 498 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:44,360 Speaker 5: that's all you've got in that room, and when you're 499 00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:46,600 Speaker 5: on the field, it's eleven guys out there playing together. 500 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 5: Playing is one, but you have to stick together and 501 00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:52,399 Speaker 5: just keep fighting. These these guys work, They work extremely hard, 502 00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:54,960 Speaker 5: and that that was not our best game yesterday. 503 00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:59,280 Speaker 1: Now looking forward to the Cleveland Browns, the Browns have 504 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 1: a three and nine record. It's been a rough season 505 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:05,919 Speaker 1: for them. Kevin Stefanski their coach. They did a terrific 506 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:08,399 Speaker 1: job a couple of years ago taking the Browns to 507 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:11,720 Speaker 1: the playoffs, but offensively they've had their own issues. And 508 00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 1: if you look at the two teams statistically, coach, it 509 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:18,159 Speaker 1: looks like a very similar type season. Third down numbers 510 00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:21,320 Speaker 1: are similar, the fourth down numbers are exactly the same. 511 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:25,400 Speaker 1: They're averaging a few more total yards per game. They're 512 00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:28,480 Speaker 1: a little more effective running the football than the Titans are, 513 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 1: but not as effective passing it. Their yards per game 514 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:36,120 Speaker 1: for passing or underwhere the Titans are, and they've been 515 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 1: sacked a bunch so far this season. 516 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:39,960 Speaker 3: You look at this game and do you. 517 00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:42,399 Speaker 1: See two similar football teams they're about to line up 518 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 1: against each other. 519 00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 5: Well, yeah, you know, you're gonna go out there and 520 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 5: we're gonna get into the tape later today and start 521 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:49,919 Speaker 5: studying them. But we've got to go out there and 522 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:52,159 Speaker 5: take care of ourselves. That's the big thing. Number One 523 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:53,679 Speaker 5: we got to go out there and they've got a 524 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:56,439 Speaker 5: great player on defense and Miles Garrett, so we got 525 00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:58,680 Speaker 5: to make sure we neutralize him. And then with them 526 00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:01,360 Speaker 5: playing a young quarterback, and they've played a couple quarterbacks 527 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:04,000 Speaker 5: this year too, So when you make those changes, sometimes 528 00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:06,040 Speaker 5: you have the ups and downs, and when you play 529 00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:07,879 Speaker 5: some younger players, you're going to go through some of 530 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:09,840 Speaker 5: those struggles. But you know, we got to go out 531 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 5: there and worry about us. Number one. 532 00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:15,359 Speaker 1: You mentioned maybe if there's one thing that sticks out 533 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:18,640 Speaker 1: on this stat sheet, it's Miles Garrett. He has nineteen 534 00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:21,480 Speaker 1: sacks this year for the Cleveland Browns. He's just a 535 00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:25,199 Speaker 1: few sacks away from the NFL record, which is shared 536 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:28,520 Speaker 1: by JJ Watt and Michael Strahan, and it looks like 537 00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 1: he has a real chance of surpassing that. Let's hope 538 00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:34,240 Speaker 1: he doesn't add to that total this weekend against the Titans. 539 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:38,479 Speaker 1: How much concentration do you give an all Pro player 540 00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:40,320 Speaker 1: these days in the National Football. 541 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:41,879 Speaker 5: You got to know where he has every single play. 542 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:46,920 Speaker 5: He's having an MVP type season. He can change a 543 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,040 Speaker 5: game in a hurry, and so you've got to always 544 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:50,520 Speaker 5: know where he has every single play. 545 00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:53,520 Speaker 1: And the point is is get rid of the football 546 00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:54,439 Speaker 1: as quickly as you can. 547 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:57,280 Speaker 3: You got it, You got it, take off if you 548 00:24:57,320 --> 00:24:57,760 Speaker 3: have to. 549 00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:00,200 Speaker 5: Run the ball, all those good things, but keep it 550 00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 5: away from him. 551 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:03,159 Speaker 1: All right, And there are remaining minutes. I've got a 552 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:05,480 Speaker 1: fun question for you now. I'm gonna Askret Bryan about 553 00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:08,320 Speaker 1: this coming up in the next segment in Titans Time Machine. 554 00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:10,000 Speaker 1: I'm not asking you to go back in time with 555 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:12,440 Speaker 1: the Titans. I am asking you to go back in 556 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 1: time in the twenty five years you've been in the 557 00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:19,399 Speaker 1: NFL and ask you what is the coldest game that 558 00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:22,199 Speaker 1: you've ever coached or participated in. 559 00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:26,400 Speaker 5: Probably I'm looking back going the twenty eleven divisional game 560 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:30,560 Speaker 5: in New England, playoff game with Tim Tebow and eleven. 561 00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:35,200 Speaker 5: It was freezing. It was that wet cold in New England. 562 00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:37,480 Speaker 5: That was probably the coldest because we had I think 563 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 5: the next year it was minus five in Denver for 564 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:45,159 Speaker 5: a playoff game against Baltimore, But it was nowhere close 565 00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 5: to what it was like in New England to me. 566 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:51,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, and that run with the Broncos obviously when Tebow 567 00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:53,359 Speaker 1: won you a playoff game, and then that was the 568 00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 1: next week, right, Yeah, against the Patriots. Yeah, that was 569 00:25:57,320 --> 00:25:58,440 Speaker 1: one of the coldest games ever. 570 00:25:58,560 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 3: Huh. 571 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:00,199 Speaker 5: It was cold for at least for me, it was us. 572 00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:02,879 Speaker 5: And plus we're getting our tail whooped, so that didn't 573 00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:03,480 Speaker 5: help anything. 574 00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:06,800 Speaker 1: How much now that we're many days away from the game, 575 00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:08,760 Speaker 1: but as we look at the forecast right now, there's 576 00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 1: a real chance for snow on Sunday. How much I 577 00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:16,120 Speaker 1: know that our equipment team does an unbelievable job preparing 578 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:18,479 Speaker 1: our team for that. How much do the players have 579 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:22,600 Speaker 1: to think about being properly dressed for a game like that? 580 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:24,639 Speaker 5: Well, I think every player is different. You know. Some 581 00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:26,440 Speaker 5: of these players just go out there and then they 582 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:28,360 Speaker 5: just have their normal gear on. They don't any worry 583 00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:30,960 Speaker 5: about the sleeves. They go out and play. So, you know, 584 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:33,439 Speaker 5: everybody's different, and so we'll talk about that as the 585 00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:34,000 Speaker 5: week goes on. 586 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:35,200 Speaker 3: What are you wearing? 587 00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:37,800 Speaker 5: Whatever's in my locker, whatever Joey puts in my locker, 588 00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:38,720 Speaker 5: That's what I'm gonna wear. 589 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,639 Speaker 3: Are you a two layer, three layer, four layer guy? 590 00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:42,440 Speaker 3: Are the thermals? 591 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:45,240 Speaker 5: No, I'll have two layers on probably depending on how 592 00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:47,040 Speaker 5: cold it is, But sometimes I just you know, have 593 00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:48,960 Speaker 5: a normal outfit on, depend on what the Weather's. 594 00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:51,520 Speaker 1: Like, okay, that's skin always change. That skin is thickened 595 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:53,639 Speaker 1: up since you were in San Diego for a few years, 596 00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:57,920 Speaker 1: no doubt, coach. We've seen some big surprises in the 597 00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:00,560 Speaker 1: National Football League this year. And and it's funny, I 598 00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:03,280 Speaker 1: just talking to you know, a bunch of friends that 599 00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:06,240 Speaker 1: love the NFL. Nobody can figure out who the best 600 00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:09,360 Speaker 1: team in the NFL is right now. It doesn't Now 601 00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:11,400 Speaker 1: there are a couple teams that only have two losses, 602 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:14,760 Speaker 1: like the Denver Broncos are off to a terrific start 603 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 1: this year. You look at the Broncos record right now, 604 00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:19,680 Speaker 1: they're ten and two. Patriots going into Monday Night Football 605 00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:22,320 Speaker 1: are also ten and two. But every other team in 606 00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:25,719 Speaker 1: the league has at least three losses, and it feels 607 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:28,199 Speaker 1: like they're at least in the AFC. There's been this 608 00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 1: one team, the Kansas City Chiefs, that sort of have 609 00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:33,439 Speaker 1: dominated things the last half decade. What do you think, 610 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:35,600 Speaker 1: why do you think that is why there's not maybe 611 00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:37,560 Speaker 1: as dominant a team this year. 612 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:39,560 Speaker 5: Well, I think it's exactly what the NFL wants. They 613 00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:42,119 Speaker 5: want parody, Yeah, and they want it to be weekend 614 00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:44,359 Speaker 5: and week out. Anybody can win a football game. And 615 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:47,840 Speaker 5: that's what you're seeing this year, and it's just the parody. 616 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:49,960 Speaker 5: And there's so many good players, and you've heard me 617 00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:51,520 Speaker 5: say a number of times, you've got to go in 618 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 5: and play your best football weekend and week out to win. 619 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 5: If you don't, if you go into a game and 620 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:58,159 Speaker 5: you're this, you know, one of the leaders, and all 621 00:27:58,160 --> 00:27:59,360 Speaker 5: of a sudden, you go out and turn the ball 622 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:02,200 Speaker 5: over to a certain team, you're gonna get beat possibly. 623 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:04,720 Speaker 5: And so it's the parody, is what it is. And 624 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:06,879 Speaker 5: that's exactly what this league wants, is to say, go 625 00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:08,639 Speaker 5: out there on Sunday and who knows who's gonna win. 626 00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:10,720 Speaker 5: There's gonna be a favorite, obviously, but you've got to 627 00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 5: play your best to win. 628 00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:14,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, And you look at it as we're sitting here, 629 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:18,080 Speaker 1: the Broncos share the best record in the NFL. Titans 630 00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 1: are one and eleven. That was a one possession game 631 00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:21,760 Speaker 1: Denver and Tennessee. 632 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:23,840 Speaker 5: Yet you got to go out there and you gotta execute, 633 00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:25,560 Speaker 5: make the plays, you know, and then you look at 634 00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:27,840 Speaker 5: the games too. You're talking about winning and losing. Is 635 00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:29,960 Speaker 5: is who is consistently making the plays week in and 636 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:30,400 Speaker 5: week out? 637 00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 1: Yep, it is is kind of wild. The other question 638 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:35,959 Speaker 1: I was going to ask you is, I got this 639 00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:38,280 Speaker 1: a couple of days ago. Who's the best team that 640 00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:39,160 Speaker 1: you've seen this year? 641 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:39,520 Speaker 3: Taylor? 642 00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:42,800 Speaker 1: And I said probably the Rams, you know, just in 643 00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:45,880 Speaker 1: terms of the way that they played and just watching 644 00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:49,320 Speaker 1: their execution, how good their offense is, how good Matt 645 00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 1: Stafford is playing a quarterback Poka Nakua. And then, of 646 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 1: course I say that the next day the Carolina Panthers 647 00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:57,800 Speaker 1: beat the Rams on Sunday. So to your point, anybody 648 00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 1: can beat anybody. But is there a singular performance you've 649 00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:03,240 Speaker 1: seen against the Titans this year where you said, wow, 650 00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:05,080 Speaker 1: watch out for that team of the postseason. 651 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:06,640 Speaker 5: There's been a lot of them. Yeah, you know, we've 652 00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:08,640 Speaker 5: played some good teams and it's just, you know, who's 653 00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 5: going to get hot at the right time. I think 654 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 5: that's really what happens is as you get to the 655 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:16,400 Speaker 5: month of December, get into January, who gets on you know, 656 00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:18,440 Speaker 5: that that little streak, that little run that you've got 657 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:22,440 Speaker 5: to get going to really get going into the postseason play. 658 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:24,239 Speaker 5: Because we you know, we've had we've played some very 659 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:26,560 Speaker 5: good teams, and I wouldn't say that there's just one, 660 00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 5: but you look at the top of the leader boards 661 00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:30,760 Speaker 5: across the divisions. Now we've played a lot of those teams. 662 00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean you look at it. 663 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:35,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, the Rams and the Seahawks are tied atop the 664 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:39,320 Speaker 1: NFC West. Titans have played both of those teams, as 665 00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:43,360 Speaker 1: you said, and obviously Indianapolis and Jacksonville are now tied. 666 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:45,720 Speaker 1: And the in the AFC South played the Texans twice. 667 00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:48,720 Speaker 1: They are only one game back. Denver's at the top 668 00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 1: of the West played them. Chargers are right there and 669 00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:53,880 Speaker 1: playoff contention as well, So you're right, there's a lot 670 00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:54,480 Speaker 1: of options there. 671 00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:56,320 Speaker 5: Well, then you look at Houston's defense too. You know, 672 00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:57,840 Speaker 5: they may not be one of the leading teams, but 673 00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:01,400 Speaker 5: you know, but they're defenses the best in the business, 674 00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:03,240 Speaker 5: you know.
