The Tennessee Titans snatched victory from the jaws of defeat against the Miami Dolphins on Monday night and it nearly wasn’t to be after a major special teams mistake almost cost them.
After Titans cornerback Eric Garror muffed a punt in a 13-13 game in the fourth quarter to put the Dolphins in scoring position, head coach Mike Vrabel looked to have given Garror an earful on the sideline.
If you watch Vrabel’s lips closely, you can make out him likely saying “I don’t give [an expletive]” to something Garror told him, presumably about the turnover.
The play did indeed lead to Miami scoring a touchdown, which put the Titans in a very difficult position after playing the Dolphins close for most of the game.
Mike Vrabel is getting fed up…
“I don’t give a f—k”

It didn’t help matters that the Titans literally fumbled the ball on their next offensive position to put Miami in position to score again.
ANOTHER turnover and the @MiamiDolphins take the ball right back!

Thankfully, the Titans were able to rally back for a stunning 28-27 victory in a dramatic finish, but Garror got quite the talk from Vrabel all the same.
