Today I looked at the gamefilm of Sunday’s Minnesota Vikings versus Tennessee Titans. Despite the loss, overall there was a lot to like about the game from the Titans perspective. Here, we compile that tweetstorm with some additional thoughts.
Here is a neat stat for you Titans fans that should make you feel better. Titans are 6th in the league on offense on 3rd down conversions

Its not that as big a part of the game anymore but Mariani has really brought the return numbers up for the Titans

It is really gut wrenching to look at the indepth numbers for Sunday's Titans loss to the Vikings. The pick six and fumble recovery TD huge

I mean imagine if the Vikings don't score on at least one of those TOs and the Titans DO score? The narrative is so much different

Piggybacking on this but the Titans were extremely successful on 2nd down Sunday https://t.co/fOnvYW20Gk

Since it came up yesterday on @1045TheZone Titans ran no huddle 10 times with 6 completions. Shotgun 32 times w/19 completions per @pfref

Interesting stat followup. Mariota was under center for 9 attempts completed 6 w/ 66.67 comp% and 131.3 QB% https://t.co/hAbp2umNvx

He also had higher yards per catch averages under center https://t.co/Se4X5sJmc7

Just a cpl more but look at this Mariota completion to Sharpe in double coverage pic.twitter.com/G8ghFlzXie

Using coaches film and rewatching b/c I noticed the Vikings had press coverage on Matthews in that two minute drill at the end of 1st half
— SUPERNAWSharona (@SportsbySharona) September 13, 2016
They did not use it all the time but they used a lot of press coverage on the outside. Which accounts a bit for Matthews numbers
— SUPERNAWSharona (@SportsbySharona) September 13, 2016
Yup they def had a ton of press coverage on Matthews and even used some press on Delanie Walker when he lined up

I think I will storify these vids for ya'll on my website. Bottom line is that its week 1. Some crazy stuff happened. Don't overthink it
— SUPERNAWSharona (@SportsbySharona) September 13, 2016
I think I remember charting Newman when he was a Bengal and if I recall correctly he was p good in press coverage.
— SUPERNAWSharona (@SportsbySharona) September 13, 2016
When its all said and done I still expect Rishard Matthews and Tajae Sharpe to be the top WRs with Delanie in there too #Titans
— SUPERNAWSharona (@SportsbySharona) September 13, 2016
Re: Terrance Newman on the Bengals. Vance is great you should follow him https://t.co/NDcw53jgHO
— SUPERNAWSharona (@SportsbySharona) September 13, 2016
Also, and finally (maybe!), it bears noting that Mariota has a comfort level with Walker and Douglas and yes even Sharpe
— SUPERNAWSharona (@SportsbySharona) September 13, 2016
He threw into double and triple coverage with Walker and Sharpe Sunday we will see if that familiarity comes with Matthews.

Also Chance Warmack got worked over and decleated by LInval Joseph https://t.co/o7wseji6D3
