    Bear with me here and allow me to opine for a bit. This has been a terribly long week...I hate bye weeks. There has been lots of talk about terrible teams around the league, and lots of talk about teams being in dissaray or in trouble and never once have I heard the Titans mentioned ....progress!

    I, for one, hate watching my team lose but I have been a Titans fan since 1997 so i'm immuned to it now and I don't think you can get any lower than we got last year. But now, for all intents and purposes it appears that we are actually headed back in the right direction as a team. We obviously lack some parts in key areas but we have a nice nucleus of young talent and plenty of cap space for the forseeable future. We have chose to draft and develop talent instead of getting quick fixes which seems to always be the best way to sustain long-term success. We have a franchise player in Mariota, I know it's only 3 games in but everybody in the league can see how special he is. He's the kind of guy that causes FA's to want to sign here IMO. Also if the team chooses to let Whiz go, he's the kind of QB/Leader/Man that coaches will look at and salivate at the chance to coach.

    I apologize for the positive post, I know from my short time on here that unbridled positivity is frowned upon sometimes but how do you feel about the future of the team? I'm not necessarily talking about this year only. I do know that for the first time in a while there are actually teams that I feel the Titans are in better position going forward i.e. 49ers, Texans, Dolphins, Jags, Bucs etc.

    I feel the same way. I think we're headed in the right direction it just doesn't feel like it because fans are used to losing. Thankfully the team seems different this year.

    I think we've improved a lot from a year ago on both sides. We really have. A few big plays have gotten us beat twice but we've played good football outside of that. I think we'll make the adjustments. Especially with Lebeau.

    I like watching our offense.


    I'm hoping we trend up this week after the bye. For a team like ours the bye week can be a good thing.

    Absolutely, I feel like we can score from anywhere on the field now. I feel that our offense can sustain drives finally. Finally, titans offensive players are worth owning in a fantasy league!!! I hate the early bye, BUT it did come at an opportune time giving the young team a chance to quickly reflect, the veterans a chance to regroup and coaches time to build a better plan going forward now that they have a better idea of what they've got.

    The important thing is we now have a QB and can begin moving forward as a team.

    All thats really a problem is the O-Line. We addressed our pass rush issues adding Orakpo, Morgan can now run freely and convert pressures into sacks. And we helped fix the secondary by adding Searcy. 2016 can be about the O-Line play. Get a real RT, move Poutasi inside to LG and all offensive woes go away. Things are looking up for the Titans. 2016 offseason should be a breeze for Ruston Webster.

    even tho it was an nice opening post, its odd you would rate that as a winner

    has Mariota turned you into a believer that good things can happen if you give them a chance? Youre usually so gloomy, no offense
