The Tennessee Titans dropped the season record to 1-6 after a loss to the Cleveland Browns on Sunday.  Robby and Joe are breaking it all down to get the week started.  It was a good day for the running game and RB Tony Pollard, but a bad day for the defense.  What did we think about the performance once again from QB Cam Ward?  There are still too many stretches of the game where the offense and Ward just aren't making enough plays.  It was a disappointing game from the defense as the Cleveland running game had a solid day.  Do we...

Talking all things Titans with Paul Kuharsky in studio for the final hour.  What does PK think of the Jordan Elliott and Alontae Taylor situations from this week?  Are we worried that this is a sign of poor culture with the team?  What stood out in the win over the Colts, and what can they carry over moving forward?  Who on defense can step up and help Jeffery Simmons?  Why such a lack of impact from DL Keldrick Faulk given the team traded up to get him in the 1st round?  We take more your phones, and close out the show w...
