After an amazing start to the season with the Titans fans being hopeful for the year, the team has on three straight weeks now, lost in games with bad showings in all three of them. The team is able to stay competitive but then it’s like a switch flips, and then the teams that they face just are unable to be stopped in getting the win over them.
In the week three matchup for the Titans in this one, it was a game that they could had won, but all they did was make mistakes and not play to the standard that is needed for the team to be competitive and fight for a playoff spot. This week saw the team get dominated when they were forced to pass. The offensive line was unable to keep Will protected, Will made numerous horrible throws that made the team lose momentum and opportunities to get points in this one, he was missing his wide open targets with some of them going into the hands of the Dolphins defense so they could score. The rushing game was good in this one but wasn’t able to do that much in the second half after the team was put into a deficit, which only furthered the problems that the offensive line had in the game.
The defense yet again let a speedy running back run all over them in the loss this week, the team was able to get some key turnovers and safeties in this one but even then. It just wasn’t enough to stop the high speed attack of the Dolphins in this one, they stopped Tyreek Hill from being productive but all that did was make their other speedy receivers get too many open looks when Tua would pass. Ernest Jones is continuing to develop nicely in these weeks though, doing more than enough to try and win this one, same thing with Arden Key and Chidobe Awuzie in this one as well. After his benching in the game against the Packers, even Amani Hooker came up big in this one with a safety to his name. Those players can’t play everywhere though.
The team is looking towards a whole team effort on both fronts as they spend next week on the bye before they return to face the Colts in their first divisional game of the season. Hoping that they can bounce back and try to take their division this season.
