    You think it's a clutch problem? Or coaching?

    I think it's hitting the brakes too early, on top of the massive fsck ups our team tends to make in crunch time.

    Clutch can be correlated to experience @Ten_Titans ;)

    Maybe the clutch went out? Those things can be expensive to replace. :p

    Typically it is a couple years before you see these mid round guys starting or playing. But with these Titans we have them playing key roles on opening day. I have never seen a third rounder start on opening day yet we have one now and he is one of the biggest problems. Not saying it is the only problem but experience does count.

    As bad as I thought that punt today was, it obviously worked as planned. A minute and a half to go, what, 50 yards? Perfectly reasonable.

    Part of it is coaching, part of it is a rookie QB making mistakes at inopportune times.

    At no point today did I think the play calling was terrible. Save for a few predictable runs and that God awful play with no spy.

    Getting beat with two or three big plays sucks, but that's just how it goes.

    Expecting a 2-14 team magically learn how to finish games isn't going to work often. How many times was the game not over yet in the 4th last year.

    Still going to trust the 95% of the game that says we are pretty good, and assume the 5% isn't enough to define our talent.

    Long season. Plenty of time to go on a run.

    True. It seems we know how to make mistakes at the most inopportune times though.

    That, leads to the dark si-*ahem* i mean, losses.

    You are always losing guys and bringing new/young ones in though. Its not like you just get to have a group of starters and let them develop together for 4 or 5 years.

    Again its a copout imo but not gonna go round and round about it.
