Best record in the conference.

Playing at home.

Out played their opponent everywhere except the scoreboard.

1 and done.

It happens.

And we all know what kind of coach Fischer is. Had his team ready to play.

Losing Chris Johnson was the difference. That and the turnovers.

And the Raven got hot at the right time just like the Giants last year.

And the penalties.

They had something like 12.

I almost thought we were playing . . . . :eek::

Great post.

While the ways of getting there may be different, but the end result is the same.

Pretty much exactly who they reminded me of. Although cowboys didn't have killer turnovers like Titans did, but they gave up key yards at key times, exactly like Cowboys Defense did, even when dominating at times.

One thing Chris Johnson reminded me, which Michael Irvin has been stressing on his radio show, how much of a big missing piece Felix Jones was/is. And I think after watching Chris, I agree now. He makes short safe throws to big plays, which makes QB be safe. So Romo would have been less turnover prone etc.

The Titans had 13 pro bowlers?

Not even close several things the titians do nto have near the overall talent as the Cowboys

Outside the oline and Chris Johnson they lack a lot of Offensive talent

Really? I will take their OL over ours any time, twice on Sunday. I am not sure Gage is not better than TO at this point. Not athletically, but just running routes and catching the ball. Only Egde Cowboys might have is, Romo, when he is not Turnover Romo and Witten.

I thought the oline played very well today.

oh no

people on here were saying penalties were no big deal and dont make a difference. so that cant be the case

ask the colts who were killed by consecutive defensive penalties before they got demoralized and let sproles run in for that td last week if penalties matter

you got to protect the ball and limit mental errors

I thought the Titans outplayed the Ravens way more than we outplayed the Giants.
I was neutral going into the game but was rooting for the Titans at the end because it was clear they were the better team.
Titans could have won it all.

I am not too sure. Cowboys just plain dominated Giants first half last year. THen the last 40 seconds TD took the air out (being at the game, it was demoralizing to the crowd too). And then Romo missing TO for TD on crossing route, or at least could have been 1st and Goal at that point.

Cowboys had plenty of chances agains Giants, just didn't make the plays. Whereas, Titans gave up the ball, different ways. Like Strahan said, their toughest game was against Cowboys last year in Playoffs.

Do we have a lot of talent or has everyone been overrating it?

We have a lot of talent I never thought we had 13 pro bowl player type talent but the overall depth top to bottom is better than most teams

Talent is just not the big stars we have a lot of solid football talent it is just dumb, badly coached and complacent from what i see.

I mean several players we let go or traded where still contributing to NFL teams and we upgraded over several of those players

I have thought that many, many times. And I do not have an answer for it.

I can see both sides of the scenario, and cannot make up my mind.

We are the hot blonde every guy wants.

Until she starts talking and then after five minutes you decide it's just not worth it.

don't forget the play where Crayton dropped the ball which was sure to be a TD or a very long gain. Instead, we ended up punting which gave NY a short field.
