What we have 12 penalties this game vs Panthers? Team is so undisciplined under Vrabel
 
Another would be big play negated by an offensive penalty. Just completely undisciplined play.
 
So, as I have stated numerous times...this ROSTER is filled with guys just happy to be getting paid and really don't care about anything else. Very few are in it to win it....very few. This is NOT a Deep or particularly talented roster....despite what @JCBRAVE thinks.
 
We are 4-5. Mathematically we still have a chance but we most likely can only lose one more game even though 7 seems to be the magic number. This is JRob's time though to decide if he REALLY wants to try and salvage the season or prepare for 2020. With that said, again, its obvious that this coaching staff is dumb as F and if there is going to be a change then the decision needs to come this week. Play the Chiefs and go into the bye with a new plan.

All the fools here who claimed the o line is not that bad, we're a good QB away, just need an average QB and the offense will be fixed. We have great players and this is a super bowl roster! Wrong. Very wrong. I do like our defense but our D line doesn't generate a lot of pressure or sacks unless we blitz. Butler going down is going to really hurt. This is not a playoff caliber coaching staff at all. It's led by an arrogant erratic HC. Vrabel was supposed to improve the team and take us to the next level but he can't even maintain the level we were at with the old staff. Progressively getting worse. No one should ever mention playoffs!
 
You should take a look at the names, some of them may suprise you.

I was optimistic we could build off some momentum heading into our critical 4 division games. I was NOT counting on Lewan being an all pro penalty machine or friggin Douglas being put at center.

Our OL coach needs to be fired yesterday. Our OC needs a mentor RIGHT NOW to have any chance of getting this offense scoring. We've got player talent. It is all coaching

And I'm not down on Vrabel like a lot of others are. It's on JRob and Amy for thinking Arthur Smith could handle the responsibility. And yes- I know they did that under the premise that continuity was important for Mariota. But it was foolish.

Vrabel is being a defensive player coach- no surprise. He delegated to the offense to LaFleur and now Smith by default. He made aggressive decisions for the offense because he was a LB- "no risk it- no biscuit". I get that. I don't mind it when its tempered. I think Vrabel has realized scheme and play-calling just aren't cutting it. I suspect he'd love to have had somebody other than Smith handed the job but it was Amy and JRob who WANTED Mariota to have every opportunity to succeed. So I'm not down on him.

I still the playoffs are possible, although even less likely now than one week ago. I'd change my vote if I could but that was the purpose of the locked poll. I'd still be thinking playoffs possible if they'd friggin hire an offensive consultant.
 
I feel like Panthers was a must win. Butler out pretty much screws our defense. Succop cant come close.

If Succop makes 2 fgs, then we wouldve taken the XP instead of running the read option with Tanny on a 2pt attempt ... we would have a realistic shot to win or get to OT. Without a kicker, corner, or win ... we dont have much of a prayer.

The injuries on the defensive side definitely hurt, and succop sucks, but it doesn’t matter. The lack of discipline is the real issue. this team is very undisciplined and can’t seem to put a game together without 3/4 of the offensive drives being 3 and outs or stalling due to stupid penalties.

Very much ALIVE for the playoffs, just not sure they really want it based on gameplay.

If Vrabel has any plans for 20 that he’s working now, he probably should be making them for another city.
 
We’re gonna lose Sunday because it’s a game we can win and we’re the Titans so we’ll lose it. The whole fan base will go back to pissing and moaning and I’ll be looking at options for our next QB.
So who’s worth picking up at QB in the draft?

To me the closest thing to a cant miss is Burrow, but Burrow will be going in the top 3 and we have no chance of a top 3 pick. Even if we lose every single game from now on we still will have more wins (and tie breakers) than atleast 5 other teams.
