The Tennessee Titans lost again, 10-6 to the Jacksonville Jaguars. In the defeat quarterback Will Levis was banged up and played like it. After having his right shoulder slammed to the field at the end of the first half, Levi returned, but didn’t look the same.
The Achilles heel of the Titans all season has been their porous offensive line and that again was an issue against the Jaguars. It was such an issue that even team leader Jeffery Simmons spoke up about it after the game.

“I’m tired of seeing our quarterback on the ground.” Simmons said after the game.
He is absolutely correct! The offensive line is bad, and it’s not just the hole at right tackle. In fact, it was JC Latham that was responsible for the hit that shook up Levis.
They may not show up completely on the stat sheet, but they are the main reason why the Titans sit at 3-10. Against the Jaguars, they only gave up two sacks, but Levis was under pressure constantly and there were too many penalties from the unit.
Unfortunately, for fans, there are no answers on the roster to fix this unit. They have tried everyone at right tackle and no one has been able to solidify the position. Latham at left tackle appears to have hit the rookie wall and is struggling. Plus, injuries have taken away any depth the team had in the interior.
The Titans need to address the offensive line in the offseason and if this play continues through the end of the season, they may even want to consider a new coach. For all of the accolades Bill Callahan isn’t cutting it.
