Two preseason games into the Jason Griffin regime and the Titans are looking like former Volunteer great Peyton Manning & the Indianapolis Colts throwing the pigskin. Young was 8 for 10 for 151 yards and two touchdowns incuding a 54 yard td to WR Chris Davis. Rookie WR Mario Manningham continued to shine with 5 receptions for 98 yards. Rookie QB Andre Woodson finished with 159 yards passing on 10 for 15 with a touchdown strike.

The defense looked good as they held the Raiders to just 123 yards of total offense including a measly 1 yard rushing for the game. They were helped out by the Raider receivers who dropped an unheard of 9 passes. Rookie DE Tony Bake finished with two sacks and a fumble recovery. LB Kawika Mitchell paced the Titans with 6 tackles.

That sounds about right you kicked my @$$ i think 53-0 in my preseason game lol. And yup my receivers dropped all kinds of passes. more on that later in my thread lol
