Storylines. The NFL is all about selling storylines and the Wilson/Carroll tension because of Wilson failing in the second half and Carroll allowing the Titans to dink and dunk their way to win is a much easier sell and far better storyline than anything about the Titans failing to beat a very good future playoff team.
You guys sure have some wild imaginations to excuse one of the sloppiest penalty filled and poorly coached and played games by the Hawk's in recent memory.
- blew a 24-9 halftime lead
- gave up over 500 yards of offense
- 20 minutes less of possession time
- 10 penalties
- 3-4 chances to win at the end, but Russell and the offense choked
- terrible tackling and coverage
But yeah...............IT'S THE LEAGUE JUST LOVES THEM SOME WILSON CARROL DRAMA!! THAT'S IT!!!
These are the kind of threads that make me embarrassed to be a part of this forum. Seriously.
Nothing to be embarrassed about. I, and my fellow believers, are simply pointing out the truth to the NFL. It's entertainment.
All of those things that you've laid out above was part of the script.
There's no way our dynamic offense the week before filled with pre snap motions and screens and creative running plays suddenly disappeared in the 2nd half of this game.
The NFL scripted the Titans to win. In order to fulfill the script, our offense played below average.
It's like that team that plays against the Globtrotters. They're told to play stupid in order for the Globtrotters to go out and put on a show. For part of the game the other guys will play for real, then they lay off because they are actors.
Russell Wilson, Patrick Mahomes, Tom Brady, they're all paid actors man. They all get paid to act out an entertaining game, and we get to watch it unfold.
