The fallout from the Tennessee Titans’ 20-17 loss to the Indianapolis Colts continued, as the team fell to 1-4 on the 2024 season, and the offense continued to struggle after the bye week.
The passing game was almost non-existent, with QB Will Levis again struggling against the Colts. He completed 16 of 27 passes for only 95 yards with one touchdown and one interception in the game and seemed out of sync. After the game, he said his shoulder was still not at 100 percent, and he could not make every throw, and it showed.
Even with this performance, head coach Brian Callahan stands behind his young signal caller and intends for Levis to be under center moving forward.

Do the #Titans already have an answer on Levis as the QB?
Why is the playcalling so conservative?

Levis also seems to have support within the locker room moving forward. After the game, veteran center Lloyd Cushenberry said, “We still believe in Will Levis.” And, “We have to be better around him.”

Those two lines have been a constant theme around the locker room, almost mirroring Callahan’s comments perfectly, no matter which player or coach repeats them. Which begs the question, what is the problem with the offense?
Levis seems to be regressing in 2024, and its offensive approach is extremely conservative, especially coming off the bye. One thing is certain: The offense must improve moving forward, or it will be a long season in Nashville.
