Yeah, the win does feel like a loss to me because the performance and scoreline was so poor. However, today, looking back, I have 10 things to be positive about from the game....

1) We Won The Game!!
2) We Created Two INT's!
3) Daunte Scored A TD!
4) C-Pep Didnt Throw A INT!
5) D.Jones IS The Best Punter In The NFL!
6) WR Reverse Worked Everytime!
7) Big Goal Line Stand After Welkers Fumble!
8) Titans Had Only 62 Yards On The Ground!
9) We Scored First For The First Time This Season!
10) Welker Shows More Reason To Be #2 Receiver!

Not much, but after how depressing it was I have tried to convince myself things were better than they were! We will be fine in a few weeks, maybe the Texans game will be our 'sprak' but for now, these are the positives to take from a poor performance.

Hence why I typed that lol.
 
The positives

Defense played well, yes gave up some passes, but responded when it counted after being put in bad situations and being on the field alot again.

Offense started showing signs of life, has a ways to go still, but in the second half showed better, not great, but better cohesion and focus. It took steps today. Yes it was against Tenn and they arent good, however, Tenn has some players on defense, it their offense that is their achilles heal. Turnovers caused them to be blownout last week more than their defense being horrid. We made more plays took more shots deep, Ronnie is a beast, keep feeding him the ball, he gets better each carry.

Yes we still need to improve, alot. But we took positive steps, now build on it.
 
Only positive is we won and perhaps Daunte will show some improvement against the hapless texans. (wishful thinking)
 
Give it up for travis daniels people. Come on. First game back and he gets an INT. he only had one last year. I didn't think he could go in and change the face of the secondary but he did awesome for coming from an injury. Im very impressed.
 
Welker should not be #2, leave him at #3 and let him keep playing the slot where he excels

Same titans your Jets went up 16-0 and almost lost to anyway.....in the NFL a win is a win, you should know that

It was a great heads up play. Too bad he was getting burned by Bennet all day. He sure did make up for it with that INT.

I could not agree any more that what you just posted
 
Your forgetting the #1 thing....Mike Mularkey did not abandon the run in the second half! And look what happened...Ronnie almost racked up a 100 yrd game, and he broke that late run for a huge gain. That is what we need to keep doing to win, especially until Daunte gets his head out of his ***.
 
Thank You

Exactly, not only were there many positives, ut this game we started doing the things that made us succesful during our win streak last season: scoring first, allowing less than 100 n the ground, big goal line stances, minimizing mistakes. this team is on its way you bandwaggoneering, fairweathered, good for nothing "fans"

Um, weren't the Titans at your like 5 yard line with a chance to tie the game and send it into OT in week 1?
 
daniels got worked over all day long, i understand he was coming back from injury but they smoked him. he got beat inside 3 times on tenn final drive, lukcily for us collins made a poor throw and bennet tipped it right to him, or else they go in and at least tie the game. travis return this week was positive, but his play wasnt

Look, I"m happy T. Daniels is back but I"m also not going to praise him for a good INT.

The ball was thrown behind a WR who had beaten him the same way they had beaten our entire secondary the whole game.

He did great to catch the ball, how's that?
