JK22 TN36 | The Titans scored on 4 of their first 5 possessions. It was a very one sided game. |
2-5 4-4 | The issue with JK was as usual QB Bortles. His mechanics & footwork are bad. That prevents accuracy. |
The game was Col. Mustard vs the Smerfs | |
TN Mariota 19/22 270 20 Murray 21/123 TD Wright 4c 84y TD | |
JK Bortles 33/54 337 30 4r 22y Hurns 7c 98 TD | |

DT HO-2.5 | HO O has struggled but so has DT D. |
4-3 4-3 | The issue with Osweiler is he is not accurate & has bad footwork. |

GB AT-3 | GB O has struggled. The problem is WRs are not getting open & Rodgers is not as accurate now either. |

AT pass O (2nd) vs GB pass D (15th) | |
GB pass O (20th) vs AT pass D (31st) | |
PH DA-4.5 | DA has won 5 straight games. Rookie QB Prescott is good but run game is outstanding. |

5-1 1-6 | |
