  • What happened in Tennessee

    Anyways pay attention to that team?

    Did the wheels fall off down there or what? From 13-3 to an 0-6 start? I know they lost Haynesworth, but...?

    Wild Cat with Vince Young and Chris Johnson would be nasty, even though J Fisher will never do it. They were also without their two starting CBs for the game.

          I don't think it's fair to compare one players impact/role on one team to another. He was the Titans best player and was a stud for them. I have no idea how he has done for Washington.

            They also lost their DC, Jim Schwartz--now HC of the Lions. I think he worked for Fischer for 10+ years. It looks like he is missed.

              W-L is the NFL is as much luck/mojo/momentum as is is "talent" and coaching.

              Little ball bounces, questionable calls, dings, etc.. can have a huge affect on the overall season, especially when considering most games are competitive until the very end.

              How different would our season be if Lee wouldn't have dropped that pass vs. Mn?

              How different would the talk after the game be if Chad was 3 inches closer to the line on those 2 plays, not drawing fouls, one of those drives leading to a TD instead of FG?

                But a lack of Fat Albert and a few calls and bounces doesn't get you 6 losses in 6 games. There's a lot more there.

                  Yeah, you're probably right. It's probably a combination of the following that I can think of. Correct me if I'm wrong.

                  1. Letting Albert walk
                  2. Losing Schwartz at DC
                  3. Collins getting another year older
                  4. Letting Odom walk in FA (two DL down -- though he was a backup)

                  CAn anyone else think of anything? I don't know of any other good players leaving.

                    Having most of their starting secondary injured.

                    Losing their top TE and WR for a bit.

                    They aren't the picture of good health this year like they were last year.

                    Fans love to trot out "injuries aren't an excuse", but the less injured team wins a good % of games. Just a fact of football people like to hide from.

                    Is it any shock that the healthiest team this season (Mn) looks real good?

                      On the plus side, I think they can rebound quickly if VY turns out to be the player I think he is. Chris Johnson is really, really, really good, and that Finnegan is very good as well evidently. There is still a lot of talent on that team.

                        Vince Young is garbage

                          last years TN team seems like they were the exact opposite to GB... they won most of their close games last year while GB lost most of theirs... TN has had a pretty hellacious schedule to begin the year but the ball just isn't bouncing their way like it did last year... for whatever reason one chooses to blame it on, it sux to be a TN fan this year...
                          Now what y'all know about dem Texas boys
                          Comin' down in candied toys, smokin' weed and talkin' noise!!!

                            And he isn't scoring 45 points in a half.

                              Excellent point Waldo

                              Parity lends itself to the deleterious effect that extraneous variables can have on squads
