Tennessee Titans Announce Coaching Change After ‘Disastrous’ Loss To Colts
BREAKING NEWS: Titans Coach In Danger After A Disastrous….
The Tennessee Titans announced a coaching change following a couple of awful miscues by the special teams on Sunday. The Indianapolis Colts beat the Titans 31-28 after scoring ten points on two blocked punts, including a scoop, and score a touchdown on a blocked punt.
Indianapolis Colts linebacker Grant Stuard (41) is helped up by his teammates after running in a touchdown against the Tennessee Titans in the fourth quarter after recovering a blocked Titans punt during their game at Nissan Stadium in Nashville, Tenn., Sunday, Dec. 3, 2023.
Per the Colts website, the coaching staff noticed a trend the Titans had with their punt team, and the Colts had a plan to exploit it:

“Those coaches noticed something the Titans did on punts and figured it could be exploited. If the Titans gave the Colts a certain look on a punt, they had the option to check into certain punt block assignments – and preparing for those checks was an intensive process, one that required everyone on the field to execute their assignment for it to work.”
