After three turnovers, a couple bad calls (well, the refs made some bad calls too), a missed field goal, a slop-bucket full of mind-numbingly stupid penalties, and the 'mistake-prone' Titans are one-and-done in the postseason. Siddown, boys, and hope next year works out better for you.
You know the story already..the Baltimore Ravens come in here and won a game they wanted to win, more so than we did I guess. Final score 13-10. And no Vince Young sightings at all.
That's a beef I have with Jeff Fisher. We of the 'Music City Miracle' are now so damned predictable; there are no more surprise plays. No VY put in to confuse the Ravens...you know, what would it have hurt to put VY in at a position where he could've caught a short pass from Kerry Collins and thrown it downfield...or not. Even being seen on the field might've helped, by drawing attention away from another player. It's called a feint. Sometimes a feint within a feint will work wonders..or miracles. We've forgotten miracles and trick plays, haven't we? Do you remember any this year? OK, one or two flea flickers come to mind.
There was no miracle to be had last night.
Screw it, here's some pics. The rain kept my camera wrapped for most of the game, and I was caught up in the spectacle of a teeth-grinding contest.

Cheerleaders at halftime..cold, eh?

Nashville's skyline..the water vapor holds the light for the reddish tinge. No post production work needed.
Back next year, if I'm in the mood.UPDATED: Florio posts that the league will probably look into the blown Play Clock call when the Competition Committee meets in March. Yeah, we could've used that I suppose. I would've been happier to see fewer turnovers.
