WOW.  That is really all I have to say about the fact that we got 1,055 comments on Sunday.  It is amazing to look back and see how this site has grown.  Thanks to everyone who particiapted this week and every week.  It is something I look forward to very much every Sunday.  Stats after the jump.

First off, I need to apologize again to Alge for what I said about him in the game thread about looking like the high school kid that didn't belong on the football team.  He came up big when it mattered the most yesterday.  

Also, I love the fact that Kerry Collins faked Ray Lewis out of his jock on the game winning touchdown pass.

Championship teams win games when they don't have their best stuff.  That is exactly what the Titans did today.  This was a really ugly game, but the Titans hung in there and got the last laugh.  I love it that we were able to do that against the Ravens.  

This game raised a lot of questions within the team and with performance of some people on the team.  It is good that the Titans have the bye week to sort all of that out before heading to Kansas City.  I have no doubt that they will.  The thing between Cortland Finnegan and Keith Bulluck that happened on the fieldn was more than likely just a heat of the moment thing and will probably be resolved before they get on the plane.

Enjoy this win.  The Titans proved today that they can win a physical game, and come from behind even when they have been physically dominated for 3 1/2 quarters.  5-0 is pretty sweet.

I will have an open thread up tonight for the Steelers @ Jaguars game so be sure to stop back in for that.

The good news is the Titans just played their ugliest half of football of the season, and they go into the break tied at 3.  

Not exactly the start we were hoping for, but I have faith that the offense and defense will make the proper adjustments to get us moving.

Here's to another slobber-knocking football game where the Titans come out on top.

GO TITANS!!

Another week, another slobber-knocking football game.  This one should be a low-scoring affair.  The "experts" are pretty split on this one:

Hoge loves us.

I caught up with Rexx from Baltimore Beatdown to ask him 5 questions about his Baltimore Ravens.

MCM- Talk about Joe Flacco.  Do you wish you still had McNair (who is my all-time favorite player), or are you happy with Flacco?

Baltimore Beatdown- McNair was a great pickup in 2006 and we got all we could have expected from him, interms of skills and leadership. Too bad we couldn't have taken that season further into the playoffs. 2007 showed us a much different McNair, one whom the years of his physical play finally caught up w/ him and he was slow, inaccurate and almost feeble. It was tough to watch, but you couldn't turn aay, like a bad accident.  I'm glad he retired. This season the QB Derby fell to Joe Flacco by default, with Kyle Boller getting IR'd and Troy Smith contracting a rare tonsil infection. Flacco has done much better than anyone could have imagined and is firmly entrenched as the QB of the present as well as the future. He is still a rookie and will make rookie mistakes; however, he has looked remarkably poised in the pocket and plays well ahead of his rookie year.

Another matchup of similar teams.  Once again the key will be taking care of the ball and forcing turnovers.  The Titans have obviously been very good at that this season.  That was the difference against the Vikings on Sunday.  Here's to hoping they can do it again.
