    The reason their D looked more effective late in the game??? Blitzing...continuous pressure to make Kerry beat them under duress.

    Their defensive coordinator did not weanie out and just wave all the LBs/DBs back deep to leave the D rushing 3 or 4. Look what that did for the Steelers on that last drive we had...shut us down.

    What do we do...well..we all know what we did and it failed miserably several times late in the game.

    I think offensively coaching maybe a B....but defensive coaching was A- in first half and D- in second half in my book.

    I really think that Tuff Harris played a big part of that game. The steelers were sniffing out the few screens we tried and were ready for all of our misdirection plays and didn't seem surprised by anything. I know you can say that we have Nate and he shared info, which is true, but it was not the kind of info tuff shared. He was with us all through camp and specifically was involved in practices that were specifically for the steelers. I am 99.99999% possitive that the outcome of our next game will be different than this one. Also an grade of "F" should be assigned to the general manager. You don't let one of the best return men leave and not sign anyone else, take the money you didn't give Albert and sign him, he filled two needs for us.

    The one thing I am worried about more than our return situation is our kicking game. Is it just me or is Bironas losing it. He missed against the ravens, pitt, and one against indy in our last game last year. I think he is like 2 for 6 in our last 3 games.

    Anyways it was a good game, and there are many things to be excited about. Hopefully our team can continue what they are doing.

    I'm going to take a lot of heat for this.....It's time for..

    Mr. Adams,

    It's time for you to win a championship! It's time to call Mr. Jones!

    Tell Mr. Jones you will pay him league minimum with incentives!
    No Strip Clubs
    No Homeboys
    No Arrest/ No trouble whatsoever,
    Just football with incentives
    Keep your big Mouth shut Mr. Jones!
    Tell him.....Pay him!

    At one point, this man wasn't even being kicked too because
    he was such a dangerous return man. Titans got the ball around the 40
    just because they wouldn't kick to this guy!
    Pay him....write the do's and don'ts in his contract
    and let that man do what you drafted him to do!

    Titans need a game changer to get over the top!

    Notes for the Game!!

    Ok, guys, we lost, and it was very hard. I was around a bunch of steeler fans. Oh well,

    But for the good things. Our Defense looked good, and we got to Worthlessburger. Problem is that we should have blitzed more especially in the second half. That was one thing we really lacked on, aside from the separation on the short pass. We were eaten up on the short pass. As far as the offense goes, We did not run the ball. CJ needs to be used more on the outside. There were plays given to him to run to the left, when they were on the left side of the field. CJ needs more room to be able to get around the corner. Now, collins did a very nice job and got 200+ yards against a very good Defense. Gage did have some drops that really could have helped us out. We played good, but like someone said earlier, Bironas is really losing it.

    We will win 12 games this year. Meet the Steelers in the playoffs.

    Guys........ We looked real good. Just a couple of mistakes.

    We will be fine.

    the reasoning behind that is there are more defenders on the wide side of the field, since there's more room to cover. less guys to beat on the short side of the field.
