    TMQ says:
    Single Worst Game of the Season -- So Far: There's no shame in losing. If you give your all and are denied, congratulations to the victor. But the Tennessee Titans didn't even seem to try as they were blown out 41-7 at home by division rival Houston. The Flaming Thumbtacks were outgained by 370 yards, a pathetic stat.

    Trailing 34-7 at the start of the fourth quarter, they could not even be bothered to play for pride. When Brice McCain of Houston intercepted a pass, most Tennessee players didn't chase him; they merely watched as he returned the interception for a touchdown. Tennessee had two speed players on the field on this play, Javon Ringer and Donnie Avery. Ringer chased McCain for a moment, then quit. Avery jogged in the general direction for a moment, then quit.

    Highly paid professional athletes might lose, but they must never quit -- and "quit" was the word for the Tennessee performance. Tennessee Titans, including coaches, you are guilty of the single worst game of the NFL season. So far.

    I took this directly from the article, if you want to read the whole thing here it is:

    TMQ, but still that is the way I saw it as well

    MM put it differently when he said in effect 'what can you do when the game gets out of hand?'

    luckily Finnegan and Babansdisdrjkqaux were all laughs and stuff by Cortlands monday night radio show

    These players quit when the other team scores first or we get down more than 10 points.

    I always preach this.....this team is bipolar. If they show up in a bad mood you can forget about. And if one player doesnt want to play the rest are like " well if he doesnt care then neither am i" this team is kinda pathetic week to week. If you lose, fine! But dont wave the white flag at kickoff. Something has to change.

    Yea this is sad but all true. This team is a mess at times. I sometimes hate that I seem to care more than they do. Don't expect this team to win much in the cold.

    Fans need to bring quiters and bipolar signs to the home games.

    I read TMQ.. on Tuesday and took it for it's word until I saw a replay (on the Munchak mic'd video)... it wasn't nearly like he painted it in my view. They pulled up when he was at the 10 and they were 10 yards from him... that's hardly quitting..

    The real story here is that Javon Ringer is considered a "speed guy."
