I can tell you that this call was correct dew. He had gotten his right foot down to start, but he was bobbling the ball. By the time he caught it, his right foot clearly came down out of bounds. One angle showed it quite conclusively. My guess is that they didn't show that angle at the stadium. I'm sorry that you had your first Titans game experience go that way. I'm glad you had a good time anyway. If there was an angle that showed that conclusively, they certainly didn't show it in the stadium. I've seen far too much recently referees ignoring the "conclusive" part of the replay rule, and this appeared to be another one. And it was an awesome time. I'm definitely planning on heading back for a game or two next year (and hopefully a playoff game or two as well). There definitely was a good view on television that showed that he was bobbling the ball and only got one foot down. I didn't see it in the stadium, but it's not like it'd be unheard of for the home stadium to show only the good replays.

It's never happened. Well, at least the Titans made some history.

6 of my favorite teams are still in the playoffs. 6 of your 32 favorite teams

:evil: Im sorry Dew. When Brady went down all bets were off with the NFL this year, what a crazy year. Eh, I was just giving you a hard time. I wonder when the last time was that two 6 seeds beat two 1 seeds in the same year?

:evil:

FTFY After the Titans sign Donovan, the Bears can have Kerry Collins. Sound good? :wink: as long as you don't mind replacing Julius Peppers with Dusty Dvorecek Orton and Collins actually have very similar numbers. I never realized that.

I'm rooting for the Eagles to get utterly demolished next week so that, by some very, very slim random chance, the Eagles will cut McNabb and the Titans will sign him. Not happening, but I can always hope.

Spot on. It just hurts. We need to actually have a good draft this year. I actually think the draft has turned out well - better, certainly, than I thought it would at the time. CJ has turned out to be great, Willie Mays Hayes and Jason Jones made good impacts on the line and Lavelle Hawkins showed some potential. In this draft, though, we need at least one more offensive playmaker. I don't expect an offensive player in the first round, though. I'm expecting either Nick Harper's (eventual) replacement or if Albert leaves, another DT to go along with Tony Brown and Jason Jones.

That was completely botched, and its not like he snapped at right after either. It was simply missed, and missed like you said 2-3 seconds after the clock ran out. If not for Tennessee crapping out the turnovers, and giving the game away this would be all we are hearing about. Yeah, it definitely would have been more talked about had we not crapped the game away all night. However, had we not crapped the game away all night, we would have won comfortably. :banghead:

And I'm feeling for you Andy. I guess we're both in mourning now. . . .

Thanks for the condolences, fellas. First off, the atmosphere in the Coliseum was truly awesome. The place was sold out for the 104th consecutive time and I wouldn't be in any way shocked if there was a full attendance - despite it raining almost non-stop all day, flurrying during the game and the low being 32. I would compare the atmosphere very favorably to what I saw in the RCA Dome last year in the Colts/Pats game. The dome was probably a little louder, but only because it was covered. As for the game, the Titans were very clearly the best team on the field - but the Ravens deserved to win that game. The Titans outplayed the Ravens in every way possible (physically), but nearly 100 yards in penalties and three turnovers (resulting in at least 9 points left on the table) will kill you in a game of field position. The missed delay of game call was horrific and costly. There is no excuse for a ref to miss that. The play clock was sitting on 0 for 2-3 seconds before Flacco snapped that ball, it was horrible. And the fact that you can't challenge that is utterly asinine. Even still, that penalty (and every questionable call going against us) didn't hurt us as much as the dumb play by the Titans did. The overturned Scaife catch that led to Bironas missing the FG was awful as well - he probably didn't get his right foot down, but I couldn't tell for sure. It was not conclusive enough to overturn it. Sadly, this game exploited everything I was worried about this team throughout the year. We desperately need another playmaker on offense. When CJ was out, there was nobody who could step up and make a play - forcing the offense to drive 10-15 plays to score and they predictably committed some penalties in all those plays. I don't care if he's a WR, RB, TE, QB, FB, or what - we just need someone who can make a big play when it's needed. It was a great season all around and the game was extremely competitive to the end, but every break went against us - exactly what I was worried about heading into the playoffs.

Well, in April 2010, you'll be seeing him picked in the top 5. That should make you feel better. That'll be pretty cool, but I'm still hoping he pulls a Peyton and sticks around for his senior year - even though he has no business doing it.

This time next year, I have a strong feeling I'll be seeing Eric Berry declaring for the draft. :cry:

If we're only paying Bradley $7 million this year, and we saved $6 (roughly) from the Marquis trade, why did we trade DeRosa? He was going to be off the books next year anyway. I'm not trying to dredge up that argument again, I'm just curious why the need was there if Bradley's not being paid $10 mil this year.

Wow that would be awesome if he coached I would laugh quite a bit if they hired him.

Bronco fans can now rejoice. I heard on ESPN this morning (USA Today link) that Bill Romanowski has contacted owner Pat Bowlen about replacing Mike Shanahan as head coach.

He is even smaller than Bush so like you said he's in that category, but not as good Bush was listed at 6-0, 200 when he came out of USC. Pervin is 5-11, 195 -- not a huge difference. I also think Pervin is a lot stronger than Bush. Really? I feel like Bush would easily out muscle him Harvin's a lot stronger than he looks. I'd be shocked if he doesn't come out as a wide receiver, simply because an NFL team is going to want his speed spread out wide. I guess Harvin just looks smaller on TV, but your right What worries me about him are all the injuries he's had throughout his career. Talent-wise he's awesome, but I worry about his ability to play alot in the NFL.

I'd almost certainly take ND over Idaho, in all honesty.

:scratch: Questioning his choice? Yeah, he isn't even the best back on his own team and he can't stay healthy. I can't see him doing anything in the NFL at all. Maybe at full back? I don't get it. He's probably leaving early because he figures his stock won't rise by coming back. If he's stuck behind a guy on the roster, his stock may only drop. He could potentially be grabbed this year in a late round to be a team's bruiser (similar to, but not as good as, LenDale).

:scratch: Questioning his choice?

No, one of the articles posted above says he passed it already. ah ok. knowing the cubs they probably made him do a few jumping jacks and declared him good to go. Given Bradley's fragility, jumping jacks are a pretty dangerous activity for him.

Yes. Leak and Tebow were in a QB rotation that year. Leak threw the ball and Tebow ran on short yardage plays.
