Yikes

Well, the Titans fans' dream of an undefeated season ended to day in rather convincing fashion with a loss to the New York Jets, 34-13. Brett Favre, the past two or three weeks, looks like a quarterback reborn, and save for one interception to Titans' CB Courtland Finnegan, played a near-perfect game, as did the Jets' defense. The Titans were just physically dominated, and I applaud the Jets for the big win.
But this stuff does happen. Very rarely - twice in the modern era, actually - does a team get through the entire regular season without at least one really ugly loss. The Giants had theirs against Cleveland several weeks ago, now the Titans have theirs. This game says more to me about the Jets than it does the Titans. The Jets are a good team, and now that Favre and those talented WR's and TE's are starting to jell, I think the sky's the limit for this team. They're good. REAL good.
I still think the Titans are among the best teams in the AFC, probably the entire NFL. They will regroup and get back to their winning ways, I guarantee it. Jeff Fisher is too good of a coach to let this team stay down for long.
