“It just gives you a chance to rethink things,” he said. “Is there something better? I never factored in anything like (the idea that production should be better after a timeout). Just you get more time to discuss the next play.”
In Sunday’s loss to the Rams, the Titans didn’t impress coming out of timeouts.
