1 00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:12,959 Speaker 1: This is the OTP four D presented by Farm Bureau 2 00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:16,640 Speaker 1: Health Plans. They've been serving members and protecting their health 3 00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:19,800 Speaker 1: for seventy five years. Learned about our Tennessee roots at 4 00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:23,840 Speaker 1: FBHP dot com with Amy Wells and Rehett Brian. I'm 5 00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:28,360 Speaker 1: Mike Keith. Let's jump right in first down. Your play 6 00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:31,840 Speaker 1: that turned the game on Sunday as the Titans fell 7 00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:35,479 Speaker 1: to Jacksonville thirty six to twenty two. Mike Keith, it 8 00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:39,199 Speaker 1: was in the second quarter. It's Derrick Henry's fumble on 9 00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:42,840 Speaker 1: that sixteen yard run. It was an incredibly physical run. 10 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:45,680 Speaker 1: He was really throwing his shoulder into the Jags to 11 00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:47,920 Speaker 1: try and get some extra yarded he was really fighting 12 00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:51,720 Speaker 1: for whatever he could get and he just loses track 13 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:53,960 Speaker 1: of football. He fumbled it. I mean, that's all you 14 00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 1: can say about. It's recovered by the Jags. It set 15 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:00,760 Speaker 1: the Jags up for a score right before half. It 16 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:04,320 Speaker 1: stops a ton of momentum that the Titans had, and frankly, 17 00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:06,680 Speaker 1: the Titans were never really able to recover from that. 18 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 1: For me, I'm going a little later. I'm going fifteen 19 00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:13,240 Speaker 1: seconds left in the first half. It's second and one 20 00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:17,119 Speaker 1: and Trevor Lawrence throws to Zay Jones. It was originally 21 00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:21,160 Speaker 1: to be called incomplete, it went under review. It would 22 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:23,320 Speaker 1: end up being a really nice catch by Zay Jones 23 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:26,320 Speaker 1: as his right foot was about a quarter of an 24 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 1: inch from the white stripe that would denote being out 25 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 1: of bound. So it is a touchdown. They go up 26 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:35,320 Speaker 1: twenty to fourteen. They get the ball back first and 27 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 1: the second half score right there. They never look back 28 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,680 Speaker 1: to your point, Amy, I'm going back even further. First drive, 29 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 1: Titans go right down the field, score a touchdown. Ten play, 30 00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 1: seventy six yards, five fifty one off the clock. Jacksonville 31 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:52,480 Speaker 1: gets the ball back Trevor Lawrence incomplete pass, nice play 32 00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 1: by Kevin Byard et n with a five yard run. 33 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 1: And then Trevor Lawrence a pass to Ingram broken up 34 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 1: by Jeffrey Simmons. He hit his arm and the pass 35 00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 1: flutters to the ground. Three and out. The Titans get 36 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 1: the football back. So here comes mine and on third 37 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:11,680 Speaker 1: and six, Ryan Tannehill sacked by Trevan Walker, fumble and 38 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:15,359 Speaker 1: it's recovered by Duan Smoot and then Jacksonville goes in 39 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:19,800 Speaker 1: and scores a touchdown. So not only do you lose 40 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 1: all the momentum of a great offensive series and a 41 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 1: great defensive series. You give the ball back to the 42 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 1: Jaguars at their twenty yard line, in their personal house 43 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 1: of horrors where everything has started wrong, and then you 44 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,959 Speaker 1: don't get off the field at the point that that 45 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:40,520 Speaker 1: game became seven to seven. The magic wore off whatever 46 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 1: Tennessee had in the series and in the recent wind 47 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:49,639 Speaker 1: streak at Nissan Stadium. Inexcusable to give up a strip 48 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:53,400 Speaker 1: sack in that situation on probably a lot of people's parts. 49 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:55,880 Speaker 1: I don't know everything that goes with the play, but 50 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 1: the fact of the matter is that was seven free 51 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:02,519 Speaker 1: point two of the other turnovers they had to drive 52 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 1: a long way to get Now you touched on at Amy. 53 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:08,680 Speaker 1: They wasted a chance. The play you're talking about should 54 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:10,519 Speaker 1: have had you go in at the half up twenty 55 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 1: one thirteen, and the play you talk about red instead 56 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 1: put the Jags up twenty to fourteen. It was a 57 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 1: fourteen point swing. I think there were several key moments 58 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,520 Speaker 1: in this thing. If the Titans are up at halftime, 59 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:25,079 Speaker 1: totally different game. You walk in and you say, m 60 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 1: two turnovers, We've overcome them. It's our day. We're doing 61 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 1: our thing. Instead, everything was magnified, and then Jacksonville goes out, 62 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:38,119 Speaker 1: has two great drives in the third quarter, you get 63 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 1: six plays of offense, six plays in the third quarter. 64 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 1: You're right, every mistake is then magnified because there's nothing 65 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 1: the Titans can do at that point. You are pigeonholed. 66 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 1: There's one way that you can behave going forward because 67 00:03:56,080 --> 00:04:00,080 Speaker 1: you're playing catchup, and all mistakes that happen either before 68 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 1: or after those moments, all of a sudden, are a 69 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 1: much bigger issue. All right, second down, Red Brian's going first. 70 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 1: It is the stat that grabbed your attention, Derrick Henry 71 00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 1: ninety six yards in the first quarter, But the stat 72 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:15,360 Speaker 1: that really stands out as one hundred and twenty one 73 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,039 Speaker 1: yards to end the game. That tells me a lot 74 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:21,599 Speaker 1: happened from that first quarter on and to your point 75 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 1: on the broadcast yesterday, second and third quarters ended up 76 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 1: being disastrous. Well, and I'll take it a step further. 77 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:33,160 Speaker 1: My stat is six carries and that is six carries 78 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 1: for Derrick Henry after the first quarter, eleven carries in 79 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:40,160 Speaker 1: the first quarter, six afterwards. Why A you didn't have 80 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 1: the football that much and b you fell behind when 81 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 1: you got behind twenty seven to fourteen, and especially when 82 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:50,599 Speaker 1: you got behind thirty three to fourteen, it's over. You're 83 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 1: having to go into a set that you're just not 84 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:56,120 Speaker 1: used to running at first. And it's like I said, 85 00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 1: you grabbed that lead even at fourteen seven. You're going 86 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 1: to be able to keep doing your thing. If you 87 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 1: go into the second half twenty one thirteen, You're going 88 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 1: to be able to keep doing your thing. You're going 89 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 1: to be able to stay with it. They were pushing them. 90 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,559 Speaker 1: There were some holes there. Yes, there were some ones 91 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 1: in twos and I get that, but there were holes 92 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 1: at different times. For the first time in weeks since 93 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,839 Speaker 1: Kansas City, the Titans pushed the other team some in 94 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 1: the run game. They needed more than six carries from 95 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 1: Derrick Henry in the last three quarters. Mine is back 96 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:29,279 Speaker 1: to what I always go with. It's penalties. The Titans 97 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 1: have five penalties for fifty yards. They all came in 98 00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 1: the second half. I think that is not a coincidence 99 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 1: that they all came in the second half. As the 100 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:41,119 Speaker 1: wheels were coming off for this Titans team, as things 101 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:44,279 Speaker 1: were getting more out of hand, you started to see 102 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:46,720 Speaker 1: those mental mistakes. You started to see some things break 103 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,479 Speaker 1: down a little bit. You cannot cannot, cannot do that, 104 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 1: and it's frustrating to see those mistakes, as we've been saying, 105 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 1: continue to be magnified by something that. I mean, five 106 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:00,719 Speaker 1: penalties in a game overall is not that big of 107 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 1: a deal when so many other things are going wrong. 108 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:06,640 Speaker 1: That's something you can control, and the Titans just didn't. Okay. 109 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,240 Speaker 1: So I worked for a guy by in the name 110 00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:11,920 Speaker 1: of John Ward at the University of Tennessee for twelve years, 111 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:15,000 Speaker 1: and John Ward used to look at the stats in 112 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:18,919 Speaker 1: football and basketball, and if he saw a broad difference 113 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:22,159 Speaker 1: in numbers, he would always tell you that he would 114 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 1: expect it to even up. In a big hurry. At halftime, 115 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:28,720 Speaker 1: Jacksonville had four penalties for thirty yards. The Titans had 116 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:32,159 Speaker 1: not been penalized. They did have one that was that 117 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 1: was picked up because Jacksonville scored a touchdown. But it 118 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 1: ends up when the game is completed, it ends up 119 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 1: nine for seventy and five for fifty. So in the 120 00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 1: second half, Jacksonville five for forty, Tennessee five for fifty. 121 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 1: Do you believe John Ward's logic? Yes, he did it 122 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:56,040 Speaker 1: long enough well. His contention was the officials always had 123 00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 1: an idea that they needed. I don't know, Mike, I'll 124 00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:01,279 Speaker 1: give you one honorable mention and on stat that stood out, 125 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 1: and this is telling about the special team's phase of 126 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 1: this and especially in the return game. Did you look 127 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 1: at that the total return yardage not including kickoffs four yards? Yes, yeah, 128 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 1: the Titans just didn't didn't get anything done in that 129 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:20,080 Speaker 1: area whatsoever. It must though. They didn't let Agnew get started, 130 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 1: so it was outside of the one he returned for 131 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:26,320 Speaker 1: a touchdown that was called back from a statistical standpoint, 132 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 1: an official standpoint, they didn't let him get started. But 133 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 1: just not a good day overall. It's halftime of the 134 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 1: OTP four D and time for us to tell you 135 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 1: about our great friends at Duncan.

Have you ever won? 160 00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 1: I've won the I've matched numbers for like the Powerball 161 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 1: and things like I've run like fifty bucks before. Oh 162 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:20,360 Speaker 1: that is not near as improcessed as what I thought. 163 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 1: You're in want to stratch off for five hundred one? See, 164 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 1: that is cool. You should lead with that story. That's 165 00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:28,360 Speaker 1: a fifty bucks story. That's a terrible story. I guess 166 00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:31,959 Speaker 1: that's true. I guess that's true. That's my fault. Third 167 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 1: down area where the Titans must improve from yesterday. Segment 168 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 1: may take a minute. Yeah, there are many many areas 169 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 1: where I think some improvement could be good. Minus turnovers. 170 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,199 Speaker 1: You gotta win the turnover battle if you're going to 171 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 1: win a ball game, all right, let me stop you 172 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 1: right there. Though. That was so wacky because this team 173 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 1: only had eleven turnovers in twelve games. Yeah, they don't 174 00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 1: do that. They did they just well they hit you right, 175 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 1: they didn't, but they I mean, that just doesn't happen. 176 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 1: They had the turnovers in the Buffalo game. But the 177 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:09,839 Speaker 1: thing about those turnovers is they occurred when the game 178 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:12,840 Speaker 1: was already like twenty four to seven. I mean, everybody 179 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,320 Speaker 1: was talking about, well the turnovers beat him. No it didn't. 180 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 1: I mean they were already way behind when they started 181 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:22,680 Speaker 1: turning the ball over. This was so out of character 182 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 1: for a vayball team. I mean it just doesn't happen. 183 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 1: And they are in a takeaway drought right now. Well, 184 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 1: and that's the bigger issue in my mind. I mean, 185 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 1: things are going to happen. They just are, especially when 186 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 1: you get in a position where you got to throw 187 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 1: the ball more. And yes, we know that you're going 188 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 1: to turn the ball over. Sometimes you gotta gotta gotta 189 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:44,280 Speaker 1: create some of these turnovers. You've got to get the 190 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 1: ball out in some way, punch it out, kick it out, 191 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,560 Speaker 1: do whatever you need to do, take it away, intercept it. 192 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 1: I don't care, but the defense needs to start getting 193 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 1: some of these takeaways. Well, and some of it it's 194 00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 1: just breaks. Yeah, I mean because Rhett, when Simmons hit 195 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 1: Lawrence's arm on the one the one pass, the third 196 00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 1: offensive play of the game for Jacksonville, that ball's got 197 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:10,080 Speaker 1: to go to a titan, right, I mean, it just 198 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:12,400 Speaker 1: it just happened. With all the tip drills we see 199 00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:19,960 Speaker 1: them do every day, average science. Yesterday was Murphy's law. Right, 200 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 1: whenever you believe in you know, I mean, you're football wise. 201 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 1: It's just it's got a land right in a guy's 202 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 1: arms running the other way, right, and instead it just 203 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 1: goes over everybody's head. And I mean it's great because 204 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 1: it was third down and they had to punt. But 205 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: I remember thinking when I saw how he affected that throw, 206 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,319 Speaker 1: Jeff did such a good job. Just like the touchdown 207 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:45,239 Speaker 1: at the end of the first half. If Roger McCrary 208 00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 1: gets two more inches off the ground, he picks that pass. 209 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 1: How about Rashad Weaver, Yes, he dropped a sure pick. Yeah, 210 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 1: and he knows it right. It was just one of 211 00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 1: those days. But it can't continue on. It needs to improve. 212 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 1: Ret For me, I have something they need to improve 213 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 1: on that would take care of a lot of these 214 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 1: issues we're talking about, and that is they have to 215 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:11,760 Speaker 1: mike win the line of scrimmage. Four sacks giving up 216 00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 1: given up by this offensive line. That's ten in the 217 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:17,280 Speaker 1: last two games. If you shore that up, you can 218 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:21,839 Speaker 1: take away some of those turnover problems and be more 219 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,679 Speaker 1: efficient in the offensive line and for the offense as 220 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:27,680 Speaker 1: a whole. And then by the same token, effect the 221 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage on defense. And you had no force 222 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 1: turnovers yesterday, and to Drought you just mentioned, you start 223 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 1: getting some things like that, you start getting back in 224 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 1: the win column. Line of scrimmage has to be taken 225 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:42,600 Speaker 1: care of. I'm gonna go with something very specific. I'm 226 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 1: gonna say the defense has to bat down more passes. 227 00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 1: Just to what we're talking about, balls coming out fast. 228 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,560 Speaker 1: You know, that's what was happening yesterday. Now he did, 229 00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 1: he did drop and take some shots, and the Titan's 230 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:58,240 Speaker 1: got no pressure on Lawrence when he did that. But 231 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 1: in those balls that are coming out quickly, and we're 232 00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:02,880 Speaker 1: going to see it again from Justin Herbert. I mean 233 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:05,959 Speaker 1: Justin Herberts through fifty one passes in the game last night, 234 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:09,480 Speaker 1: completed thirty nine for over three hundred and fifty yards. 235 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:13,600 Speaker 1: So his yards per attempt was not fabulous. Ball's coming 236 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 1: out and so you've got to get in lanes and 237 00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:18,200 Speaker 1: knock it down. You may not be able to get 238 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,760 Speaker 1: to the quarterback on those plays, I get it. You 239 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 1: may not be able to pick off passes in those situations. 240 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 1: Maybe you can, that would be great, but you've got 241 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,839 Speaker 1: to bat the ball, whether you're in the defensive line, 242 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 1: whether you're a linebacker a defensive back. You know, Bayard 243 00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 1: made a few good plays on Ingram. I think he 244 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:38,160 Speaker 1: had three pass breakups. They've got to get their hands 245 00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:41,959 Speaker 1: on balls all over and knock them down. At some 246 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 1: point one of them has to bounce up in the air, 247 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 1: fly up in the air, hang up in the air, whatever, 248 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:52,720 Speaker 1: and be intercepted. It has to happen, Yeah, I mean 249 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 1: you would hope, you would think, but I don't know. 250 00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 1: It feels like it might never happen again. Well it will. 251 00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 1: Fourth down, You're player of the game, Ritt Bryan for 252 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:05,959 Speaker 1: the second straight OTP four D. It's check a conquo. 253 00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:09,000 Speaker 1: He accounted for eight of the twenty two points in 254 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 1: this six catches for forty five yards. The young man 255 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 1: is emerging right before our very eyes. The two point 256 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 1: play was incredible. I mean he you know, he just said, look, 257 00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:23,440 Speaker 1: I had to secure the ball, and so he secured 258 00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 1: it to the front of his helmet and rolled in 259 00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:28,760 Speaker 1: for the two. Can my player of the game be 260 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 1: Mike Vrabel? Really? Can he? I'd be interested to know why. 261 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:37,480 Speaker 1: I was impressed by him both yesterday and also today 262 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:42,600 Speaker 1: in his press conference. But during the game, the level 263 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:47,560 Speaker 1: at which he communicated with his team when it was 264 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:51,240 Speaker 1: an infuriating game, I'm sure, especially for the person who 265 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:53,680 Speaker 1: put together what the keys to this game are and 266 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 1: was watching his team just struggle to perform the way 267 00:14:57,320 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 1: that he needed it to the way that he was 268 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:04,160 Speaker 1: talking to his players, and I see him every week 269 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 1: during the game, the way that he was coaching, the 270 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 1: way that he was breaking things down for He wasn't 271 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:13,440 Speaker 1: losing his mind, he wasn't losing his cool, He wasn't 272 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:16,800 Speaker 1: overly frustrated or angry. He was very sensible, He was 273 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:20,400 Speaker 1: very concise in the way that he was talking to people. 274 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:22,160 Speaker 1: He did a good job of giving notes and then 275 00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:23,960 Speaker 1: getting out of their way and letting them work. He 276 00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:26,000 Speaker 1: just I was so impressed by the way that he 277 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 1: was moving about the sidelines and the way that he 278 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 1: was interacting with his players. And then he addressed it 279 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:34,680 Speaker 1: today in his press conference about how there are a 280 00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 1: lot of different ways that you can get your message 281 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:40,240 Speaker 1: across to players, and he was asked about whether he 282 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:43,120 Speaker 1: yells and gets frustrated and kind of takes out his 283 00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:46,440 Speaker 1: frustrations on his team, and he was talking about how 284 00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 1: he is really intentional with the way that he delivers 285 00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:50,960 Speaker 1: a message and that there's a lot of different ways 286 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:53,600 Speaker 1: to do it. And as soon as he said that, 287 00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:56,200 Speaker 1: I remembered him on the sidelines yesterday, and what I 288 00:15:56,280 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 1: was noticing was that intentionality was that commitment to not 289 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 1: losing his mind and not being overly frustrated even when 290 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:06,880 Speaker 1: bad things happen. He's walking up and down the sidelines 291 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:09,920 Speaker 1: telling guys to burn it and keep going. I was 292 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:13,320 Speaker 1: just so impressed by that, because you know that he 293 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 1: had to be just losing his mind like the rest 294 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:18,880 Speaker 1: of us. You know, that's a good point. He's my 295 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 1: player of the game. And I think it's interesting because 296 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 1: that mindset, even though virtually everything had gone wrong for 297 00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 1: his team, that mindset is what allowed them to have 298 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:34,120 Speaker 1: first intent at the Jacksonville twenty with two forty one 299 00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:37,680 Speaker 1: to go. That didn't work out. But let's just say 300 00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 1: a Jacksonville defensive back falls down, Racy McMath catches the touchdown. 301 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 1: Then all of a sudden, it's thirty six twenty nine 302 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 1: with too something to go. You maybe don't even have 303 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:55,960 Speaker 1: to on sidekick, and you're in a position there where 304 00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 1: or you do and you get it. You're in a 305 00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 1: position there where you may not lose this game. My 306 00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:07,399 Speaker 1: point is this, by acting how he acts, not blowing 307 00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:11,119 Speaker 1: a gasket, I think that's what gave the team a 308 00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:15,119 Speaker 1: chance to still be competing at the end. Now he 309 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:18,159 Speaker 1: can blow a gasket. Oh sure, I have witnessed it. 310 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:22,280 Speaker 1: For anyone listening to the otp Ot people, I promise 311 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:26,480 Speaker 1: you if you think that it's all you know, playing 312 00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:31,400 Speaker 1: the still string guitar and everybody hugging and it's all 313 00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:34,640 Speaker 1: wonderful all the time, No it's not. He can get 314 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 1: with it when he needs to, but he picks the 315 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:42,040 Speaker 1: right situation because he knows, having been a player, that 316 00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:45,240 Speaker 1: when you're down, the last thing you need to do 317 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:50,120 Speaker 1: is have somebody absolutely wear you out. That's gonna put 318 00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:53,200 Speaker 1: him in the tank and then you have no chance. Now, 319 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:55,879 Speaker 1: if there's going to be wearing out, it'll be in 320 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:58,880 Speaker 1: the meeting room, it'll be on the practice field, but 321 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 1: it won't be forever and ever. He doesn't do it 322 00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 1: every single day. He picks his spots. He picks his spots. 323 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:08,880 Speaker 1: And that's why the Titans never feel like they are 324 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:13,040 Speaker 1: completely out of a ball game. Never are they in 325 00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:15,720 Speaker 1: a position where you're like, well, nope, it's done, shows over, 326 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:19,639 Speaker 1: we're done. It just doesn't happen because this team continues 327 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:22,680 Speaker 1: to play, and if for no other reason, they continue 328 00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:25,280 Speaker 1: to play for him, because I think there is a 329 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 1: respect and an understanding and I think the lot of 330 00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:30,200 Speaker 1: that is the way that he interacts with his team 331 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:33,600 Speaker 1: even in times of stress and in times of just 332 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:37,240 Speaker 1: what have to be incredible frustration. My player the game 333 00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:40,159 Speaker 1: is Austin Hooper. Five catches sixty eight yards in the 334 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:43,200 Speaker 1: last six weeks. He might be the Titans most valuable 335 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:45,919 Speaker 1: player over that period of time. He's now second on 336 00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 1: the team in receptions with thirty two. He's up to 337 00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 1: three hundred forty seven yards, receiving nearly eleven yards a catch. 338 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 1: He scored two touchdowns on the year. But Austin Hooper 339 00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,920 Speaker 1: is a guy they can continually rely on to pick 340 00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 1: up first downs, to make a guy miss, He's making 341 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:07,000 Speaker 1: some plays. The biggest problem for the Tennessee Titans at 342 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:09,480 Speaker 1: this moment in time is they don't have enough guys 343 00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:15,240 Speaker 1: making plays. They just don't. And Hooper is making plays 344 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:17,359 Speaker 1: when he gets his hands on the ball, the twenty 345 00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:20,560 Speaker 1: four yard catch and run, those sorts of things that 346 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:23,359 Speaker 1: they have guys that can make plays, They're just not 347 00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:26,800 Speaker 1: making enough of them right now. And we talk about 348 00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:31,119 Speaker 1: the luck part of this having to do with maybe 349 00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:33,720 Speaker 1: a ball bounces to you one time or something happens, 350 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:38,520 Speaker 1: but at some point, somebody just has to win, right 351 00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:42,440 Speaker 1: and somebody just has to win. Nick Westbrook a kine 352 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:45,560 Speaker 1: in the end zone one. That's what they needed to 353 00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 1: have happened, because I don't know they would get the 354 00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:50,400 Speaker 1: ball in otherwise. I mean, they were so snake bit 355 00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:53,360 Speaker 1: on the day. It was like, you're you're sitting there 356 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:56,520 Speaker 1: watching this Rett and you're thinking, in your mind, they're 357 00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:58,800 Speaker 1: not going to get this in. This is how bad 358 00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 1: this day is. Mike Rabel talks about you got to win, 359 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:06,040 Speaker 1: and he means those one on one battles too. You know, 360 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:09,960 Speaker 1: I felt bad for Racy McMath because here he has 361 00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 1: not been on a football field since late August, and 362 00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:17,239 Speaker 1: he's clearly knocking the rust off and I wanted so 363 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:19,959 Speaker 1: badly for him to catch that touchdown so he can 364 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:23,639 Speaker 1: kind of explode the rust off, not just knock it 365 00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:26,040 Speaker 1: off right well, and he'll get more chances. I mean, 366 00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:28,680 Speaker 1: he absolutely will, because he's worked his rear end off 367 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:31,320 Speaker 1: to get back to the point where he could actually 368 00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:34,120 Speaker 1: get out there and make some plays if they get 369 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 1: Burks back. And I respect how Rabel is handling the 370 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 1: Burks thing with a concussion because people are asking him, 371 00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:44,400 Speaker 1: is there a chance he can practice to their chance. 372 00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:48,160 Speaker 1: He doesn't want to say anything because he in no 373 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:51,359 Speaker 1: way wants it to be interpreted that he's sending a 374 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:55,680 Speaker 1: player a message or an expectation about a head injury. Right, 375 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:59,880 Speaker 1: I totally respect that. Now, maybe private least thinking yeah, 376 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:02,000 Speaker 1: he can get back out through this week, but publicly, 377 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 1: he doesn't want to say anything because he wants the 378 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:07,680 Speaker 1: player to feel like he can go at his own 379 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:09,639 Speaker 1: pace with a head injury, that he can tell the 380 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:12,679 Speaker 1: truth and that he can feel better, and that he 381 00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 1: can be ready to go at his own moment, just 382 00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:18,480 Speaker 1: like today announcing that Dontrelle Hilliard is already out this week, 383 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:22,360 Speaker 1: so people won't be asking all week about Dontrelle Hilliard, 384 00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:25,440 Speaker 1: and it's people's jobs to ask. I'm not saying that. 385 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:30,560 Speaker 1: What I'm saying is Vrabel takes that off the player immediately, 386 00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:36,680 Speaker 1: which if my son's playing for him, that's what I want. Yeah, 387 00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:39,520 Speaker 1: because the head thing is nothing to play with. Nope. Now, 388 00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 1: if Burkes can go and you have Woods, Westbrook, Akeena Burkes, 389 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:49,919 Speaker 1: Racy McMath, Chris Conley's kind of an interesting guy because 390 00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:52,640 Speaker 1: he's doing some better things. And then if you get 391 00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:55,679 Speaker 1: Phillips back, and I just keep holding out hope that 392 00:21:55,840 --> 00:22:00,280 Speaker 1: maybe Kyle Phillips can rejoin. Could you actually have a 393 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:03,720 Speaker 1: full compliment of receivers and don't forget Chicken Hooper? Well 394 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:07,000 Speaker 1: that's it. I mean, the tight end position has improved 395 00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:13,879 Speaker 1: dramatically um and especially in recent weeks. But oh gosh, 396 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:17,080 Speaker 1: could this be? I don't know. I'm not I'm not 397 00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:19,679 Speaker 1: knocking on I'm not knocking on things or holding my 398 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:23,880 Speaker 1: breath or speaking in to exist. I burned my lucky 399 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:27,320 Speaker 1: socks last night. Well that's probably good, and they did 400 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:30,640 Speaker 1: not work. They're going, wow, Yeah, we need something new 401 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 1: that's lucky. I'm looking for anything, just Rubret's head. Okay, 402 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 1: I hope that works. I tried listening to Casey in 403 00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:42,840 Speaker 1: the Sunshine Band before I came into the stadium yesterday. 404 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:46,920 Speaker 1: Oh you went back because Rhett who played at halftime 405 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:50,080 Speaker 1: of the nineteen ninety nine AFC Championship game in Jacksonville 406 00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:54,440 Speaker 1: Casey and the Sunshine Band. I was looking for Carmen. 407 00:22:54,520 --> 00:23:00,600 Speaker 1: Now Casey, he's done. Harry Casey. Harry Casey, Yeah, all right, Harry. 408 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:03,679 Speaker 1: Time has not been kind to Harry Kings, but he 409 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 1: was kind of us one Sunday in Jackson in early 410 00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:12,159 Speaker 1: two thousand.

Yeah, it's very You know what, 414 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:24,960 Speaker 1: we need a gift, Mike Keith, Amy Fox New Stevie Wondersocks. 415 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:30,680 Speaker 1: Since he's superstitious, that's pretty good.
