Honestly, they probably should have done MORE Peteball

TOP was terrible because the Titans moved the ball all the way down the field on every possession, whether they scored or not.

At the end of the day the hawks O scored enough to win. The D on the other hand other than a few lucky plays and Titans mistakes, couldn’t get off the field at any point in the game. Loss is on them.

Seattle had 1 drive over 2 minutes.

Peteball wasn’t what I saw today but you know what will bring back Peteball? Losing winnable games with a WTF passing strategy that leaves our defense out on the field 47 minutes.

Pete is not going to be happy about the way today went.

Exactly. What do people think would happen if we scored 30 pts in the first half then punted on 1st down the rest of the game? Cause that's essentially what happened. How many units would hold up to that? And, why would anyone expect them to.

wrong we scored 24 in the first half and 6 thanks to a pissed Ep in the 2nd half.


Now lets look at that though

Tenn had also a 50% 3rd down conversion percentage, we had several Tenn drives extended due to penalties.


As to 1 drive over 2 minutes that is incorrect. we had 2. BUt again we scored 30 points. and had a 2 score lead with under 1 qtr.

They let Tenn score on the first possession of the 2nd half. and it was a 4-minute drive.

our first drive was 5 minutes and a punt.
almost a 6-minute drive. So that means in 2 drives right after halftime with a 5 minutes drives in between the defense let Tenn have almost 10 minutes of TOp that on them at that point. Then we score a TD, then the defense lets them score a td in 49 seconds. We still have a 7 point lead with under 4 minutes to go and again they cant hold the lead.

So sorry the defense was to blame for their own issue isn't eh 2nd half which included numerous penalties that extended drive and their time on the field.



there 2nd in the 2nd half was again a

The truth is painful sometimes. 1 drive over 2 minutes, yikes. Keep in mind defense gave the offense a gimme after a short field turnover. Take that away second quarter TD after the sack fumble by the defense and things don’t look as close.

Never seemed like there was a commitment to run the ball. Guys have to bring a mentality to force the issue. That needs to change before the next game.

Defense made their stop in overtime. Offense went 3 and out with a HOF QB and talent everywhere. Defense is average at best but the offense failed when it mattered most
