Ground Hog Day for Titans

The Tennessee Titans lost 13 - 10...again. The Titans turned the ball over and beat themselves...again. Head coach Jeff Fisher is crying about a game changing blown call after the game....you guessed it, again. Didn't we see this the last time the Titans played a meaningful game? You know, that divisional round debacle against Baltimore. The ghost of the Ravens continue to hover over this team. It's something about the style of play of Baltimore, a psyche if you will. Whatever it is, it gives the Titans fits. Not many teams are equipped to punch the Titans back in the mouth. The few that do and Baltimore specifically, seem to have Tennessee's number. Pittsburgh is a team that can punch back. For a minute, I forgot it was the Steelers. Tight end Bo Scaife fumbled the ball in a crucial part of the game last night. The same way fellow tight end Alge Crumpler did in last year's playoff loss to Baltimore. The defense could not get off the field on third down late in the Baltimore game, the same as last night. It's one thing to be physically outclassed. It's another thing to "give away" games to the same types of teams. I had the same sickening feeling about Tennessee's chances as the game wore on last night. I couldn't put my finger on it, I just felt it. I just knew it. Everything in the Titans body language said "we can't beat Baltimore" last night. They have 10 days to understand that Houston is the opponent next week.
