What's going on Titans fans? Welcome to the review of the Titans/Seahawks game, which is offically going to be the latest post-game review I've ever had to write, as it's midnight over here in Titans Country.

Anyways, there is plenty to talk about tonight's 20-18 loss. I wrote down so many notes that I'd probably have to be up another hour just typing them all up, so I'm going to have to summerize.

In case you missed it, the Titans loss this one 20-18. I'm not really going to focus too much on the final score though, because it is preseason and I'd rather talk about individual preformances rather than a pointless game (yeah, I said it).

One guy we should talk about is Vince Young. As always, there's a lot of question as to how good VY is going to be and if tonight tells us anything, then Vince should be alright. The five-year pro was 5/6 tonight with 78 yards. He did throw a pick, but I think that was a just a little preseason mistake that Vince is going to get over.

I also wanted to touch on our young defensive backs, who showed some really mixed results tonight. Both McCourty & Mouton had their fair share of missed tackles and defensive confusion, but Mouton made up for it with his INT. Rookie CB Alterraun Verner also had a pick of his own, and was swapping up with Jason & Ryan thoughout the night.

Another thing that I always like is how the Titans just kind of wing it in these preason games because, to put it simple, Jeff Fisher really dosn't care. That's why you always see the Titans faking punts (like they did tonight) and we also went for a 2pt conversion for basically no reason other than the fact that we wanted to go home.

Now, this has been a real loose post where I'm basically just looking down my notes and picking random topics to rant about but I'm going to close on something much more serious...

Stafon Johnson (pic), who nearly escaped death last year during a weight lifting accident, was seriously injuried tonight and his season may be over. It's a really sad ending for a guy who has fought so hard to be where he is today. Just looking at his tear-filled face while he was carted off the field is enough to make anyone feel sorry for this guy.
