Titans Newest Problem, Finger Pointing
It’s easy to be a winner. I always tell people you find a person’s true character when “it” hits the fan. Two games into the NFL season the Tennessee Titans are failing that test.
0-2 is certainly not a place any of the Titans expected to be, but Sunday we started to see the first signs of fractioning in the lockerroom and discontent among the players. The Titans gave up 350 yards passing and 4 TD’s during the game, but Chuck Cecil wasn’t done getting torced, after it was over one his own players took a shot. Nick Harper told me “We didn’t make any corrections on the sideline. There wer some plays where I got it on my side, they flip-flopped to the exact same play on the other side and we still didn’t get it stopped! Like I said, we didn’t make any corrections on the sideline. They made corrections and they hurt us!”
That’s as straight forward as a player is. “Sideline” means coaches in case there was any confusion. Harper and the entire secondary are obviously angry, confused and probably embarassed at this point. Lou Holtz use to have a great saying, “Car’s in the ditch, who’s going to get out and push?”. That’s what Harper missed out on. The car’s in the ditch, blaming someone for it doesn’t work, it’s time to get out and push and push as one.
