YouTube Video of the Week: Philip Rivers Loses QB Contest to a High Schooler

December 23rd, 2009 by Spizz | 1 Comment | Filed in YouTube Video of the Week

This video circulated the interwebs last year at some point, but it still gives me a hearty chuckle. If only Rivers had to throw to tires Friday instead of Vincent Jackson and Antonio Gates.

Tennessee Titans Playoff Scenarios Generator

December 21st, 2009 by Rogersworthe | 3 Comments | Filed in Playoffs

New commenter Justin provided this AMAZINGLY entertaining link to the Yahoo! NFL Playoff Generator. You can mess with pretty much anything on it to see who would and wouldn’t make the playoffs in different scenarios. The good news? There are several ways in which the Titans can make the playoffs. However, there are a few definitives, from what I could see:

  • Either Baltimore or Denver has to lose out if Pittsburgh wins out.
  • If Baltimore, Pittsburgh, and the Titans finish 9-7, the Titans are the odd man out.
  • Miami is the odd man out in several scenarios, that seems to be the one team the Titans can beat out.
  • In a very odd scenario, if Pittsburgh beats Baltimore then loses to Miami followed by the Ravens beating Oakland (not much of a reach there), followed by Denver losing out, then the Ravens and Dolphins are in and the Titans and Steelers are 9-7 teams that are out.
  • Get crazy enough and you can break it. I found a way to where the Steelers would play as the 5th and 6th seed at the same time!! Now that would be insanity.

Anyways, go crazy. It provides several scenarios I have never thought of. Of course, ALL of this is moot if the Titans can’t win on Christmas Day. If you want, post some of the weird scenarios you find in the comments. I shall do the same.

What a year.

Hope always dies in the harshest way

December 6th, 2009 by Rogersworthe | 4 Comments | Filed in Tennessee Titans

Peyton Manning didn’t let us keep the illusion of playoffs alive for long. They scored quickly on their first drive and we answered with what? A field goal. FIELD GOAL SYNDROME STRIKES AGAIN!!! Nate Washington then dropped our one hope to make this a game.

And there it is. Hope dies. We’re 5-7 with no longer any shot at the playoffs. This sucks…

I totally was in. And it hurts.

Breaking down why to not break down the playoffs

November 19th, 2009 by Spizz | 1 Comment | Filed in Playoffs, Tennessee Titans

We’re ten weeks into the season and playoff talk has officially begun. We’re starting to see some speculation as to whether or not the Titans could win out and steal a wild card spot. Michael Strahan says that a post-season appearance for us isn’t not a possibility, and he knows a thing or two about things on TV with an outside chance of success (zing!). But do the Titans really have a shot at the playoffs? Fuck if I know.

Fox exec somewhere: Now take this, and at a parapalegic brother! Its gold!

Fox exec somewhere: "Now take this, and add a parapalegic brother! It's comedy gold!"

Let’s break this down. At this point, it’s reasonably safe (and by “reasonably safe” I mean “still wild speculation”) to assume that New England and Indianapolis will win the AFC East and South, respectively. Barring some sort of monumental implosion, which you can never rule out with a team God hates, Cincinnati will probably win the AFC North (they’ve already swept both of the real teams in their division their remaining games include Oakland, Cleveland, Detroit, and Kansas City). The AFC West is still a toss up between Denver and Whale’s Vagina, so that puts the wild card picture a little something like this:
