Titans fans
I just looked at one of the Tit's message boards. It looks as if they have a few folks "leaving forever", some that blame the refs, a lot of homers, and some that are just right down pissed. But they can type the dreaded f-word and they seem adept in doing so.

they need to let them all go, even Henry, and package the picks to go get a franchise QB. You're not going to win a Super Bowl with a high mileage running back and game manager QB. You're just not. It's pointless to even try. |

In the past few years when suspect officiating was at play you heard every pundit show (First Take, Get Up, Undisputed, etc.) out there talking about them. This year crickets. Get a pad for your weeping vagina. You are embarrassing yourself. |

That finesse offense just outrushed the strong Titans run game.

So as SOON as the ball is snapped, the sideline judge throws a flag. And then as the play is progressing, the judge behind the play throws another one. The officials huddle and announce the hold. Titans fans: "The sideline judge had decided he was going to throw a flag either way! It's rigged!!!" Well they didn't see the official behind the play throwing the holding flag. And during the conference with the officials, they either 'picked up' the sideline judge's flag or just ignored it. But you can see from the replay that he threw it because the WR and TE are both on the line. It was an illegal formation flag that he threw. Had the officials just done the usual "There are two flags on the play, both against the offense..." they'd have had nothing to bitch about. But because the officials only announced the holding penalty, Titans fans are calling it rigged. It wasn't - the RG committed a stupid (and egregious) hold on the backside of the play. It was a clear penalty right in front of the official that had no bearing on the play itself. But it was an obvious penalty. As for the PI on Hardman...pft, who cares? Game was effectively over at that point and that play gets called more often than it doesn't. Do I think it SHOULD? No, no I do not. That was an underthrown ball and the DB should've had the right to his spot on the field. This whole 'turn his head' thing is so boilerplate these days as to become comical. That was solid defense to me on a poorly thrown pass that created contact. Do I wish the NFL would stop bailing offenses out for those kinds of throws? Yup - but they aren't. They throw that flag nearly every time. It was no different than the PI on Breeland on 3rd and 22 - that was a penalty. He grabbed the jersey. Was it soft? Yup. Did it matter on the play? Nope. I wish they'd let that stuff go but ultimately they don't. I agree with the folks saying that it was one of the better officiated games of the year - they did a really nice job. |

It's funny because you don't notice in real time how hard some of those hits are, but Sorensen knocked a 240 lb man about 12-15 feet sideways. Hits him right at his thighs, lifts him up and around and then he comes down on his shoulder. And took his sweet time getting back up. That 'soft' defense took Henry's legs from him right then and there. He was done. And then Dan did it to Tannehill a couple drives later. Ryan didn't really want to play football anymore after that play. The 'tough' Titans got bullied off the football field Sunday. |

Henry had over 400 touches this year. Going into a free agency year, that's not ideal.

You ****ing pussy. The Tits got beat. Plain and easy. There were no controversial calls. Mahomes just torched your ass, and the defense knocked you silly. You want OLD school? Big Dick Dan force****ed your face, Honey Badger whooped that ass like your father, Pennel took your lunch money, and then Frank Clark took your bike and your chain, bitch. |
