Callahan put the bad passing game on him.
He said they gotta pass better and while shpeal how it's unacceptable but it's on him.
Levis' quotes on INTs seem like repeats of things he said previously.
Callahan can't lose the team by standing by Levis has been a narrative for a couple weeks now.
Defenders frustrated
Ridley frustrated
Got some no comments from offensive players
The pot is definitely stirred for a Levis benching
BUT Callahan again said Levis is our guy not changing etc

Next year’s starter isn’t on the roster.

I don’t love Beck but he’s probably a major upgrade and solid.

Rudolph is what Levis will be a couple years from now. I really thought Levis would look ok this season with that WR room but he's a poor man's Daniel Jones.

Man, I thought Daniel Jones was a poor man's Daniel Jones.

Daniel Jones is a poor man's Justin Fields.

Poor Wil Levis.
There is some percent chance that Rudolph is good. He had a concussion that was severe and takes three years to overcome and it was reasoned as that's possibly why he was so good for the Steelers late last year. He threw for 82% rate thru camp which is wow. In the half he played, they had a lead and were not losing it. They ran and had him dink n dunk or throw it away; with quotes like he did exactly what we asked, after the game.
Levis' arm is clearly bothering him. He doesn't know what healthy enough to win is and shouldn't make such statements. He had plenty of velocity on his passes. They were just often a bit off. Not an excuse. They have talented targets that should be able to catch em. It doesn't account for bad decisions. Firing it when it's unnecessary and all the usual. I disliked him making that statement after a loss.
Rudolph and Callahan talked quite a bit on the sideline and I haven't noticed that before.
Levis' head is shot. He needs to be benched. He's overthinking everything and me sitting on my couch can see it. He's so timid. The college kid was full of vigor and fired all over the field and ran recklessly like a former Lacrosse player he is and... we didn't see him today. Like a zillion young QBs before him, we saw the shellacked version that probably has a bit of PTSD. He needs to sit. He's a former second round pick and $ will have little bearing on his roster status for 2025. Just sit him.
He can do Mayo commercials and grow a Mettenberger stash and just chill.
The QB coach is right behind the ST coach imo as someone clearly not doing his job well. Levis has had a recurring prob this year of not getting everyone set at the LOS in time. That's amateurish. High school stuff. Discussion of what's the C job and what's his with barking out blocking orders at LOS. Discussion of often throwing to first read. He didn't have these probs last year. I think those are coach fix issues.
He's lost the locker room and the prior paragraph probably led to that some. They had patience but it seems gone now. None of those 30ish players knew they'd lose this much and the WRs sure didn't expect 0-2 catches per game. If they do get another contract that will cost them. The D is always on the field due to his three and outs and that builds up over time.
Callahan risks crossing the line from blind faith to foolishness.
The Titans play the Bills and Lions and they have no chance w Levis and like 2 percent w Rudolph.
If they're 1-6, I think the GM gets fired. Does he actually? Idk but the air will be there so I have little doubt he's saying "you better play Rudolph" and calling Tannehill and whatever teams to try and create a QB out of nowhere. I think 1-6 looms large.
Novel of a reply but....that's how I see everything.

I was just plain wrong about Levis. I thought he’d develop well this year.

Also thought Levis was going to take steps forward this year. Unless there's something physically wrong with him, don't see the point in switching to Rudolph. Give him a chance to work it out, Titans aren't going anywhere this year, a couple potential extra wins isn't going to do anything for them other than move them down in the draft.

As a UK fan I told you guys what you have in Levis. The issue with Levis is mostly between the ears.

Quite a few of us bought the magic beans this year. Really thought he was primed to break out.

She talks privately to the GM and Coach every Tuesday. She's fired GMs for "shining" her. I'm sure they tell her straight up. She's Bud's daughter and knows the game oh so well and was raised on it. I have no doubt there's a version said to the public and a version behind closed doors.
Quite the contrary,he's saying what he needs for job preservation.
You can believe him or not but Mike Lombardi has said multiple times the primary reason she fired Vrabel was that he did not share her vision for Levis. Secondly he's reported the new coach needed to share that vision and if you go back and hear her comments about Levis in the little interview she did after she fired Vrabel this all sure sounds like it checks out.
If/when ownership/upper management gives him the green light I think he'll show us what he really thinks of Levis.
Lombardi has no connection to Vrabel and his reports are often especially questionable.
Vrabel stuck out his chest. There's different reports as to what he said but he essentially gave the GM "do you know who I am" and then met with the owner and did the same. He did not enter the post season meeting with a teamwork, "how can we or I be better" mindset. In an interview a while later he admitted to saying he was coach of the year and he felt...which also lent to these reports.
Amy isn't a meddlesome owner at all. She's human. She's hugged Marcus and Henry before they left. She loves Hopkins and his blind mother. She doesn't meddle. The rare times she's spoken has been that she wants a good product for the new stadium
Lombardi knows more than Vrabel does out of his own mouth...ok
There's even an article on his bogus report
Bogus report on Mike Vrabel still has a kernel of truth for the Tennessee Titans
Michael Lombardi incorrectly said that Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Vrabel was a free agent after this season.

He needs brain work. Should he be required to see a psychiatrist? I think he has the physical skills, but lacks in decision making obviously.
Titans OC said the Titans coaches got together as a staff and watched every pass play on Monday. He said usually it's 20 minutes of lowlights and highlights but they decided to go over everything and make sure they're on the same page w everything.
He mentioned defensive adjustments, OL play, Tackles losing so the ball not going to that guy.
He did not say QB play. I infer it was discussed since ya can't watch every pass play and not discuss the guy passing the ball.
I think it's possible they discussed sticking w Levis or not.

Some things have come out-
They won't be tolerating mistakes unless it's your first start.
Many players corrected Levis many times and Rudolph explained what those players are seeing.
Everyone is saying the word tolerance
Mistake prone guys would be Levis, NPF, Chig, Burks, and maybe Ridley
On the practice videos, Levis' wrist is taped or bandaged up. Presser was before practice so they wouldn't have known to ask and it wasn't on the injury report.
Idk what it is.
I saw someone speculate he used a weird release due to his shoulder pain and tweaked the wrist. Idk..fine guess?

So lots of breakdowns released and different QB gurus are explaining the Titans altered this and did that to make the game as simple as they've ever seen for a QB.
95 yards is a failure
One said it's like spelling your name wrong on the SATs when they give you so much for that.
Their guesses of Monday's meeting range, of course, but they think it was to step back from "this is our guy" and say "here's why."
They all mention leadership stuff. One said a story of injured QB saying "help me win this guys" and everyone fired up. He can't imagine anything positive in that huddle and says without any public dissenting opinion (besides Ridley) that's a heckuva team environment because plenty others would have spoken out. He thinks coach's will recognize that and make the change
I can't give details or quotes due to pay walls and usual stuff

This seems to me like Levis will sit and they'll say it's the shoulder

Titans QB Will Levis is dealing with a grade 2 AC sprain in his right shoulder and could be sidelined beyond Sunday’s game at Buffalo, per sources. This is considered a 4-to-5 week injury, and Levis has played through injuries in the past, but this one will be a week-to-week situation.
********
When he hurt it initially, radio hosts kept discussing what an NFL team's responsibility is to stop a player from injuring himself further. Imagine Levis launching a bomb, strains the shoulder, and the tear becomes worse.
The Titans are acting like it's Levis' choice and he may be back next week but (regardless of poor play) I have to question if it is his choice. I think the docs and trainers....well can anyone think of a QB injuring their throwing shoulder as a prior discussion point?
