Social media rightly shreds Titans for disastrous Week 3 loss to Browns

Titans Andre Dillard Derrick Henry NFL Tennessee (Organization)

The Tennessee Titans lost a disastrous game to the Cleveland Browns on Sunday by a score of 27-3.

In a game where the team had the chance to win consecutive games for the first time since last November, Tennessee completely dropped the ball both literally and figuratively.

This was an all-around beatdown on both sides of the ball. To say the offense was lifeless would be putting it nicely, and even when the unit did get something going, it often shot itself in the foot.

As for the defense, the pass-rush was mostly neutralized while the secondary struggled to make plays when they were given the opportunity to do so.

Even worse, those struggles were amplified by coverage breakdowns and ridiculous penalties to either extend drives or put points on the board for Cleveland.

Sunday’s loss not only dropped the Titans to 1-2, but it significantly lowered the fanbase’s morale after what was an incredible win a week ago.

Here is how fans and media reacted to Tennessee’s deflating Week 3 loss.
