In the latest episode of First & Tenn presented by Farm Bureau Insurance of Tennessee:Â
Under McCoy, the Titans showed some early offensive life for a change in last Sunday’s loss. But he also raised questions with some questionable decisions at the end of the first half and didn’t find a way to slow the Patriots’ offense.
It’s awfully hard to get past the turnovers with Cam Ward, as the rookie quarterback has now totaled 10 — five interceptions and five fumbles — in seven games. What’s going on? Is it simply rookie QB growing pains or worse?
Ward did produce some good numbers in other departments: He completed a season-best 73.5 percent of his passes, threw for a season-best 14 first downs and finished the day with a season-best 92.2 quarterback rating. Aside from the turnovers, are there some signs of progress?
Wide receiver Tyler Lockett asked for and received his release from the Titans on Monday, marking the umpteenth time the team has failed to get much production from a veteran free-agent receiver. What do we make of his departure, and was it related to the expanding role of Chimere Dike?
The surprising Indianapolis Colts (6-1) are up next for the Titans. Should we expect anything to be different from the three-touchdown thrashing Indy put on Tennessee just over a month ago?
What’s our score prediction for Sunday’s game?
