They're not even the worst, is the Titans' thing, the entire summation of the Titans' thing, there's always someone shittier, sadder, more pathetic, which makes it even harder to embrace the nihilism of being a Browns fan or whatever, but you just have to rely on mediocrity year after year, like Mister 8-8 Jeff Fisher or this current mediocrity where the team goes through an offensive coordinator every season, leading to you finding yourself deluding yourself into thinking Vince Young is good or Marcus Mariota or you just have look on lifelessly at Jake Locker or Ryan Fitzpatrick or some poo poo knowing it's not the worst, it's not even funny or apocalyptic or truly pathetic, it's just the same ol' crap, to the point where it's not even exclusive, the Bucs do the same thing, but the Bucs did a championship once while the Titans will always, always, always, always, always be that team that fell short in 1999 and deprive Houston of a cooler football name or what the gently caress ever as if it matters because the Texans, Jags, and the Colts second iteration when it moves to London, the Monarchs, will all have championships before Tennessee does, gently caress this team.

Oh, no, the Jayhawks are objectively hilariously awful, I can at least mine some sympathy out of it. When I tell people I'm a Titans fan, I don't get a, "I'm sorry," I just get a, "Why?"

This still might be a playoff team, is the thing, the AFC is that bad. But I just had to get the past two years of frustration out of my system.

The thing about Mariota is, everyone here knows I've been a huge defender, but he's a shadow of the player who beat KC at this point. In the opener, most of the game he opted for very safe throws or overthrowing, which, first game in, okay. Second game, though, he does the same thing up until late in the game where he starts doing hurry up passes that are very nearly turnovers that look like rookie decisions. Didn't see the monsoon part of last night, and yes, the offensive line is incredibly bad, but committing to the run that much, that isn't just poor scheming, that's a lack of confidence in your quarterback. The whole "Mariota doesn't have an arm" thing isn't some constant state for him, he's become like that, and his confidence looks so poor with long passes that he's become a liability. If you don't believe in your quarterback enough not to have three straight run plays three scores behind in the second half, then gently caress it, start Tannehill and at least let Mariota prep himself to try to be a backup somewhere next year. And hire an actual drat offensive coordinator too, that would help. Other than Delanie who was a known quantity coming in, I don't see how the Titans TE situation was that impressive so I'm not sure why the TE coach got the job instead of some proper vetting, but whatever.

I currently have a galaxy brained take of Lamar Jackson is thus far what Mariota could of been if not saddled to some truly awful coaching

Lamar Jackson was a better runner in college, honestly. I've always been really high on him, he's cool as poo poo. Mariota could've at least been a comparable version of that though, but, y'know, never had the same offensive coordinator in consecutive years.

The caveat to my first post is it's obviously way more stupid to do in football than basketball because of the difference in individual impact. Going with Ryan Fitzpatrick, fine, but trading away Minkah, pretty loving dumb. Almost wonder if it's a sell job by Ross, but not sure if that makes any sense.

Kawalimus owns, like the sports equivalent of getfiscal, and I'm really happy he still has the avatar I got for him back in the day. I'm happy this is his year and he's going to doomsay the Ravens into winning a Super Bowl.

gently caress Baltimore though.

No it's Packers, Cowboys, Chiefs, and Patriots right now. Ravens aren't quite there yet. But those four are far and away the best.

That game 1 for Packers didn't look great and the Cowboys haven't proven anything to me and I don't believe in Dak or Jason Garrette at all. The Ravens kept up with one of the most potent offenses in football in an away game, that's impressive to me. Lamar had some ridiculous plays today.

That's a tighter hole than the image suggests, but at the same time, I can't tell how many times I've watched Baker this year and thought, "WHAT THE gently caress, IF YOU'D JUST RUN FOR IT YOU'D HAVE HAD A GAIN." He's seriously allergic to rushing now and he seems mobile enough where that feels inexcusable.
