Near the close of the Tennessee Titans’ unfathomably wretched 41-7 home loss to Houston Sunday afternoon, a few remaining frustrated fans at LP Field began chanting “We want T.O.! We want T.O!”
Or could it have been, “We want Tebow, We want Tebow”?
Judging by the completeness of the Titans’ third defeat in six games and its second straight loss, either Terrell Owens or Tim Tebow might help the many hues of blue crew.
But when you’re outgained 518 to 148 in total yards, your defense spends 37 minutes on the field and former Tennessee Vol Arian Foster runs for over 100 yards, catches more than 100 yards in passes and scores three touchdowns, your problems would appear to be so many in nature that one wonders what lasting improvement anyone short of a couple of Real Steel boxers could make on the Titans.
And given that, the acquisition of Owens — who is scheduled to stage a workout in California on Tuesday for the Titans and others — would appear to only slightly cure Tennessee’s ills, though University of Tennessee at Chattanooga fans would surely enjoying seeing their most famous former football Moc playing so close to home.
