"“What the heck happened in Buffalo? That was an awful offensive showing. “"

Yep, hit the nail on the head. For as many excuses and realistic reasons why the Titans weren’t good on Sunday, the point is that they have the talent to be better.

How many times have we seen Derrick Henry break a long run that gives the offense momentum? Corey Davis had a big coming out party the week before, only for the team to not throw the ball his way really? Why wasn’t Marcus Mariota allowed to run or throw deep? What happened to Dion Lewis and Taywan Taylor to make them total liabilities instead of sparking the offense?

I know exactly what happened in the game from an Xs and Os standpoint, but it feels like the Titans offense should have been more than this.

Even with bad play calling and poor execution, the Titans couldn’t get one real splash play out of this team?

Prisco said it best up there, what the heck happened in Buffalo?
