I feel like they went into TN just expecting the game to be handed to them. TN was UP for that game. Hopefully the kick in the ass helps them realize they are now the hunted, not the hunter.
I'm with you. I hate that excuse as well, but something is just off this year. And I mean more than just Burrow being injured. I really thought the rest of the team would step up and hold down the fort until Joe was ready to be himself again. I get the receivers are at the mercy of the QB but we should really be leaning on a power running game with Mixon and the other RBs. Of course that's on the coaches.
Even with all that's happening I'm still eagerly anticipating the game it all clicks and we get things going again. Of course that's what my heart says but my head keeps whispering that we may have already missed our championship opportunity with this team. I sure hope my head is wrong.
