What were your favorite moments from last season you'd like to see carry over into 2024-25?

Mine: Week 2 8; (0:58 - 1st) 1st & 23 at TEN 5; Levis to Hopkins for 29 yards. Love how even after two consecutive holding calls (NPF & Chig), Levis hits DHop in the hands with a laser and erases all the negative momentum.

This was my personal "Levis is the guy" moment; I can't wait to see what he does with Cally's offense and a wealth of WRs.

Songs you associate with the Titans?

Hey Titans fans!  I'm doing a research project on songs that fans associate with their respective teams.  I'm asking fans across all professional leagues if there are any songs in particular that you associate with your team.  With that being said, are there any songs that are important within the Titans community or that remind you of the team?  If it is a song that would be consensus amongst most fans, that would be most helpful.

I appreciate any input!  Mods feel free to delete if this breaks the sub's rules.

Thank you!

Tennessee Titans: Massive Improvements for 2024 | PFF

Once again, palazzolo is the only PFF guy I trust. Maybe it’s my bias for the titans. But he seems to get what Ran and Co. are doing and why we won’t be the butt of the AFC south with all the improvements we’ve made in short order.

Titans 2024 Draft Analysis Compilation

Round 1, Pick 7 - JC Latham, OT, Alabama:

NFL: General manager Ran Carthon is putting his stamp on the team with this pick. Taking Latham tells me the Titans want to continue playing bully ball and dominate at the point of attack despite surrounding their young quarterback with pass-catching talent in free agency. The 6-foot-6, 342-pound tackle can overwhelm and overpower opponents on the edges, which should excite second-year quarterback Will Levis.

CBS Sports: B+. He is a right tackle and they need a left tackle, so it will be interesting to see how they play it. But he’s a violent player wherever he plays. They cross-train at Alabama at both left and right, so he should be able to make a smooth transition.

ESPN: Latham played mostly right tackle at Alabama but will switch sides in the NFL. He was a highly-rated left tackle coming out of IMG Academy but switched to right tackle because Evan Neal was already entrenched on the left side. Latham's mix of size, heavy hands and footwork should allow him to fit in there. But it's a risk to use a top-10 pick on a player and switch his position. The Titans have used three picks within the first three rounds on offensive linemen since 2020. Could Latham be the one that finally pays dividends?

r/NFL Absolutely Not Fake News: Hopes he can convince his squirrel army to come with him.

Round 2, Pick 38 - T’Vondre Sweat, DT, Texas:

NFL: Our first mini-shocker of the day. The massive Sweat was believed to be a possible top-50 pick at one point, but that was prior to his recent arrest. Credit to the Titans if they did the requisite work on Sweat's character in the past few weeks. He's a massive human being capable of closing down two gaps by himself, but some teams felt Sweat might be available entering Round 4 based on recent developments.

CBS Sports: C-. Monstrous NT who finally demonstrated a glimmer of pass-rush capability with hand work as a senior. Not as good against the run or double teams as his size indicates. Probably two-down player in the NFL. Tennessee did need more size inside along the DL, but this is too early for a limited player.

ESPN: Sweat is another move for the Titans to address the trenches. At 6-foot-5, 366 pounds, Sweat will pair with Jeffery Simmons along the defensive line giving the Titans a formidable duo to attack the quarterback and stop the run. Sweat consistently made plays behind the line of scrimmage as shown by his eight tackles for a loss and two sacks. Sweat was booked into jail after an arrest for driving while intoxicated earlier this month, but the Titans are confident he will be fine with Simmons and former Texas teammate Keondre Coburn as leaders in the locker room.

r/NFL Absolutely Not Fake News: Jumped his family mini-van like the Dukes of Hazzard.

Round 4, Pick 106 - Cedric Gray, LB, North Carolina:

NFL: Nice value here for a linebacker who does almost everything fairly well and can be a tone-setter in the locker room. Gray will be a quality special-teamer at the very least, but he carries starting potential down the road. He's aggressive and instinctive.

CBS Sports: A-. One of the younger prospects in the class who comes with plenty of experience. More fluid in coverage than he is with sheer explosion and range to the football against the runs. Has to improve beating blocks in traffic en route to the football. Long limbs. Upside is there.

ESPN: The Titans address a need at inside linebacker with Gray. Tennessee lost starter Azeez Al-Shaair when he signed a free agent deal with the Texans. Jack Gibbens started most of the season next to Al-Shaair last year. Gray will compete with Gibbens for the opportunity to start along side Kenneth Murray Jr. who signed a free agent deal last month. Having started the past two seasons at North Carolina, Gray could be a candidate to wear the green dot communicator helmet to relay the plays from the sideline to the defensive huddle.

r/NFL Absolutely Not Fake News: Knows there is chemical waste buried under the Browns training camp.

Round 5, Pick 146 - Jarvis Brownlee Jr., CB, Louisville:

NFL: Nickel corner run! Brownlee will take on all comers in coverage, lacking great size and speed but compensating with good experience, coverage savvy and an intense focus.

CBS Sports: B-. Confident and feisty CB who can play inside or the perimeter. Not overly twitchy. Nice mix of physicality and athleticism at the line and during the route. Tackling is average at best. Same with ball skills and overall athletic skill set. Not tremendous anywhere but doesn’t have a clear flaw.

ESPN: Brownlee Jr. gives the Titans depth, especially at nickel cornerback behind Roger McCreary. Tennessee met with Brownlee at the Senior Bowl and had him in for a 30 visit. Defense is clearly a priority for the Titans as they've addressed that side of the ball with the last three picks. Brownlee lands in an ideal situation where he can learn behind L’Jarius Sneed and Chidobe Awuzie and play for noted defensive back specialist Dennard Wilson.

r/NFL Absolutely Not Fake News: Almost got his toe bitten off by a snapping turtle.

Round 6, Pick 182 - Jha’Quan Jackson, WR, Tulane:

NFL: It felt like Jackson was among the leaders in Senior Bowl practice receptions. Interestingly, I felt he was underused at Tulane, as Jackson has good quickness to uncover and make people miss as a smaller-framed slot receiver. He and teammate Tyjae Spears are reunited in Nashville.

CBS Sports: B+. Small somewhat twitchy vertical threat. Not as ridiculous changing direction as his size would indicate but has electric burst and speed. Minuscule catch radius but flashed some bounce to go up and get it at times, although physicality and longer CBs give him problems.

ESPN: Jackson gives the Titans depth at slot receiver and another player that can be in the mix as a punt returner. Titans coach Brian Callahan expressed a need for someone to step up as a slot receiver when asked about wideouts in the draft. Jackson will compete with Kyle Philips, Mason Kinsey, and Kearis Jackson for a roster spot and the opportunity to contribute from the slot. He was a college teammate of Titans running back Tyjae Spears at Tulane. Jackson is also the nephew of Hall of Fame Baltimore Ravens safety Ed Reed.

r/NFL Absolutely Not Fake News: He had to come up with all these draft facts under duress.

Round 7, Pick 242 - James Williams, S, Miami:

NFL: A long, fairly rangy athlete who spent more time at deep safety than he did in the box, Williams will be tried as a linebacker. His unusual dimensions and skill set might make him a sleeper.

CBS Sports: A-. Has some wild tackling misses on film but also counters with impact plays behind/near the line or at the intermediate level in coverage. Enormous size and length for the safety spot and will set the tone in many games with his powerful tackling. Not incredibly twitched up but moves reasonably well for his size.

ESPN: At this point, teams draft for traits. Williams played as a box safety at Miami but some teams envision him as a linebacker after seeing him work at that position at the Senior Bowl. That falls in line with the versatility that defensive coordinator Dennard Wilson said he wants. Wilson also said he wants the defense to be aggressive which is something that Williams showcased in college. Tennessee could also use him on special teams.

r/NFL Absolutely Not Fake News: Simply cannot believe that Shrek 2 is 20 years old this year. WTF.

Round 7, Pick 252 - Jaylen Harrell, DE, Michigan:

NFL: Harrell is a broad-framed linebacker with rush skills and an alpha-dog mentality. His performance in the national title game was great, and he could be a sub-package defender with a unique job description.

CBS Sports: A. Old-school outside linebacker who can sink in coverage or attack the outside shoulder of the tackle. Smooth, athletic movements to comfortably do either. Shows glimpses of pass-rush promises just doesn’t diversify his rushes enough. Must get stronger but does set sturdy edge. Young ascending player.

ESPN: Five of the seven Titans picks have been on defense. Harrell's father, James, spent eight seasons in the NFL and played one season in the USFL. Jaylen Harrell started all 15 games for Michigan in its national championship season and adds to the Titans' depth at outside linebacker. He'll compete primarily with Harold Landry III, Arden Key, Rashad Weaver, and Caleb Murphy for a chance to be in the edge rotation.

r/NFL Absolutely Not Fake News: Has band T-Shirts from the 80’s and 90’s.

Belated Mother's Day Post for Amy Adams Strunk

I've been busy as of late moving back home for the summer, but that doesn't mean I haven't thought about an owner that many of us have dubbed "Mom": Amy Adams Strunk. Most outside fans seem to hate her for the whole debacle with the Oilers rights and who owns what colors, but this is not a lecture on copyright. Furthermore, her team's fans don't live in Houston, they live in Tennessee. With that in mind, let's dive into how she's done since she took over in late March of 2015.

NOTE: For this exercise, I will not include 2015 as she was largely stuck with Whisenhunt and Webster as the hiring cycle that year was long over by the time she took ownership of the team. Ergo, I do not think that including a year where she did not have control over her front office and coaching staff is entirely fair to her.

This table below demonstrates how she's done since 2016.

Regular Season Record (Win Percentage)72-61 (.550)
Playoff Record3-4
Conference Championship Game Berths1
Winning Seasons6
Worst Season by Record6-11
Bottom 10 Finishes (Seasons w/ Top 10 Pick)1

This doesn't even do justice to quite possibly the most defining characteristic of her ownership: she doesn't settle for mediocrity. For our team specifically, a massive shock came when Mike Vrabel was fired last January. He had previously led the Titans to four straight winning seasons and three playoff berths but really struggled the last two postseasons he was in despite a pass rush that got 14 combined sacks in the two most recent playoff losses due to offensive ineptitude. This ineptitude was further highlighted in the AJ Brown trade, where we've been the only team in the last two years to never put up 30 in a single game. Jon Robinson was fired midseason following the reunion with AJ Brown the previous year despite creating a roster that got us to the AFC Championship, and Mike Mularkey's deficiencies became too glaring to ignore even for stumbling ass backwards into a playoff win (what let us bring in Vrabel to begin with). Many will claim that she's petty and backstabbing, but I'd be more terrified if these guys were not fired when they were. For instance, the Oilers debacle against Houston last year was the last straw following years of Vrabel chasing after Tim Kelly's mediocrity and saw some of the most braindead playcalling you will ever find, one of myriad incidents of Vrabel losing his touch as a coach in those close games and discipline fraying (top 10 in penalties taken the last two years). Jon Robinson had flunked three straight drafts before facing the axe. All in all, she is only as patient as she needs to be. While Callahan and Carthon still have yet to etch their legacies here, both of their presences demonstrate her willingness to take bold risks to improve her team, the former in the need to correct our lack of a competent passing offense since the days of run and shoot and the latter to bring a modern outlook to a front office that has whiffed hard on several offseasons and many more beforehand.

Houston fans and r/nfl can claim whatever they want about Strunk. While I would discourage you from trying to argue about the Oilers rights due to how unpopular relocation is in general, especially how this team left Houston and how she's looking for a new stadium instead of trying to renovate the rotting old Adelphia like Bud did for the decayed Astrodome first, that does not diminish what has happened in the eight years that she's been in charge of the league. Ever since 2016, we are the only team in the AFC South to not finish with a top 5 pick that came from our season. Furthermore, this is the first season under her that we had a top 10 pick at the end from our season's efforts. For reference, let's take a look at other teams in the AFC South and see how often they've had top 5 and 10 draft picks from their seasons.

Houston Texans: 4 (2017, 2020-2), 4

Indianapolis Colts: 2 (2017, 2022), 2

Jacksonville Jaguars: 3 (2017, 2021-2), 5 (2017, 2019-22)

In essence, we just don't bottom out under her watch. In this timeframe, only Jacksonville has gone to the AFC Championship alongside us, and we're tied with them and Houston for total playoff wins (Indy hasn't won the division and only one playoff game lmao). The timeframe also has us tied with Houston for most playoff berths at four while Indy and Jacksonville have two apiece.

All in all, there are better owners out there, and our future looks murky. Nonetheless, calling Strunk a bad owner paints an incomplete picture of her leadership. The morality of fighting about the Oilers rights remains dubious put charitably, but we've for the most part been a solid if not outright good team under her ownership, and I would hardly have anyone else owning this team.
