NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Something on everyone from the Titans' 16-6 loss in Pittsburgh Saturday afternoon.
3 K Austin Barnard – Punted twice for 97 yards with a new average of 41.5
4 K Ryan Succop – Didn’t have a placekick to attempt as the Titans went for 2 after their only score. Hit two kickoffs, one for 59 yards and the other for 65.
6 K Brett Kern – Punted four times for a 39.8 net with one inside the 20 and a long of 53.
7 QB Blaine Gabbert – Got into a good rhythm at times. Hitting on 16 of 24 passes for 158 yards with a touchdown. Was fortunate one ball was not intercepted. Was unfortunate that Cameron Batson stepped out of bounds before making a catch that had a chance to be an explosive TD catch-and-run. Stood in and took a hit from Tyson Alualu just after releasing a 3-yard touchdown throw to Anthony Firkser.
8 QB Marcus Mariota – Really did not look sharp. One short incomplete to an open Corey Davis forced a punt and found Mariota hand gesturing to the receiver as they started their conversation leaving the field. Finished five-of-eight for 43 passing yards with a bad pick where target Taywan Taylor simply wasn’t open. He responded by making a nice form tackle of rookie safety Terrell Edmunds. In the end, he hit nothing longer than 12 yards and a passer rating of 37.0.
