A pretty good effort. Tennessee takes advantage of a perfect day to whip the Buffalo Bills 41-17; a game that was tied 17-17 until the 4th quarter. When the Bills seemed to lay down (we've never seen a team do that before, have we??).
Some quick high lights...Chris Johnson, 132 yards and 2 TD's; Vince Young ran in a TD and kept his nose clean for the most part (only 1 INT, and no theatrics; theatrics from Bill's Terrell Owens on the sideline during the 4th Quarter (the crybaby word red sneakers...more on that later); NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell was here for this game (don't know why, but everyone was on their best behavior it seems).
The Titans scored 24 unanswered points in the 4th Quarter (two from interception returns). Trent Edwards is still a bit shaky, but did manage to do well for almost four quarters. Better luck next time.
I've only time to put up a few pics here, in Part 1. Part 2 later.
Nashville's new Signature Towers looks...uncompleted. Why do we always fail to finish the tops of these things? The 'hanging' State Building; the 'Tobacco Barn' atop what was the Third National Bank Bldg. Sorry, Sig, but the Bat Bldg. still owns the Nashville Skyline.
Here's Nate Washington's TD at the end of the 1st Quarter. The Titan's 2nd TD of the day; Chris Johnson had already run one in earlier. A field goal by Rob Bironas in the 2nd Quarter gave us 17 points; no more until the 28-point blowout in the 4th. (I hate it when fat heads get in my way.)
Halftime gave us a special Veteran's Day salute to every armed force, and the 101st Airborne Band.
UPDATE: Part 2 is up. Featuring a somewhat strange old man, and a flock of birds.
