JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – The shiny new weapons. The veteran upgrade left guard. The continuity coordinator.
In consecutive games against division foes, those elements have proved to be worth very little for the Tennessee Titans. Last week it was a 19-17 home loss to the Colts. Thursday night it was worse, a 20-7 loss to the previously woeful Jaguars, who started a sixth-round rookie quarterback.
“Honestly, they just kicked our ass,” Delanie Walker said. “We’ve really got to check ourselves and really see who we say we are and who we say we want to be.”
With Marcus Mariota at the helm in his fifth year, this was supposed to be an Apple offense, sleek and smooth out of the box, pretty to behold with new features to discover as we got to know it.
How funny does that sound now?
