One thing to remember about the beat down from Sunday. The Titans were missing both starting CB's, and I think one of their safeties. They had two or three rookies starting who normally wouldn't in the secondary. That doesn't excuse the beating they took or the piss poor offense though.

All that can explain a tough road loss or a defeat, or even a bunch of defeats. On Sunday an entire team quit. Effort has nothing to do with injuries, defections, or anything else mentioned. That's a team with no intention of turning things around.
