Quite interesting. 70% of those responding on the Titans Message Board hope for a win this weekend vs the Jags. Conversely, 30% of those responding hope for a loss and a potential top 10 pick.
https://www.titansreport.com/topic/45767...n-week-18/ Personally speaking, when the Jags were clearly eliminated from the playoffs and vying for a top 5 pick, I'd root for a loss to get the best pick possible, but this seems odd that the Titans fans would root for a loss when the Division title and playoffs are on the line. Then again, they're not known for being the sharpest tools in the shed. We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today! (01-03-2023, 01:23 PM)HURRICANE!!!

As bad as they have been for the last couple of months, beating the Jags would just mean they get embarrassed in the first round of the playoffs, while hurting their chances for picking up a new QB in the draft. Can't say I blame them much.
30% of those fans suck for their team then.
Just saying playoffs on the line and you're hoping for a loss. Lame
Seriously, it's not like those podunk mayo eating morons are in line for a top 3 pick. It's playoffs or bust.
That fanbase has no idea how support a team. They have a HOF RB, a pretty good HC, and they are looking to tank/blow up the squad while being in the AFC South, the dumpster fire of all divisions in football?!?!? Those people should have their TV watching privileges revoked. We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!

Yeah i've been reading their message board for the last 3 weeks. They are descending further and further into hopelessness each week and it's awesome. We need to nail the coffin shut this Saturday.

Except that 30 percent would be right.
Winning the division and making it does them nothing as they will be one and done; they may retain their terrible OC; and get stuck in no man's land in the draft needing a solution at QB
They want Vrabel fired, so that makes sense.

All Titans fans should be committed...or just punched in the face, whatever works.

30% of their fans are losers. They're already locked out of the top 6 picks and there are 4 teams at 7-9. The best they could hope for would be the 7th (haven't looked at tie-breaks yet) and they would prefer that over the playoffs??? I want the 32nd pick!
When you get into the endzone, act like you've been there before.

I’ve said this before, but the only time I’d root for a loss is if a prospect like Trevor were coming out and we were already in contention for the #1 pick. Neither of those things apply this year.
Looking back at drafts from years past and mock re-drafting them will never have the players go anywhere close to the original order they were taken in. As a result, draft order doesn’t matter that much unless the Trevor scenario above happens. It’s evaluation and projection that matters. Play to win your games. What are you even doing as a team or as a fan otherwise?

Sorry, just can't think that way, and I'm guessing there's not many players who make it to the NFL that think that way either. We show less advertisements to registered users.

It is kinda crazy that if they lose, they end up with the #9 pick apparently. From potential playoffs to a top 10 pick.

That just tells me most of them will have their division title hopes ruined

There are good players but no player that stands out as a NFL ready player. All the QBs have issues and I wouldn't be surprised if all of them are busts.
