    Titans get a gift from Malik Willis amid 0-2 start to season

    NASHVILLE - The Tennessee Titans dropped to 0-2 with another frustrating loss to Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets on Sunday.

    The Titans repeated many of the same mistakes they made in Chicago. A blocked punt gave the Jets free points, Will Levis was careless with the football in critical moments, and Tennessee's defense did not create any turnovers despite being strong overall.

    Frustrating isn't a strong enough word for how Titans fans are probably feeling. That goes double for the Titans players and coaches, who were visibly distressed in postgame interviews.

    But luckily for Tennessee, the AFC South has been scuffling across the board. The Jacksonville Jaguars and Indianapolis Colts also fell to 0-2 on Sunday, and it was former Titans quarterback Malik Willis that got a win over Indy with the Green Bay Packers.

    Willis was an efficient 12-for-14 through the air with 122 passing yards and his first NFL touchdown pass. He added 41 rushing yards and did enough to manage the game, protect the football, and earn the victory.

    Good for Malik. But Titans fans better hope that his winning ways don't continue. Green Bay comes to Nashville next weekend for a date with the Titans, and it seems possible that Willis will get to start against his former squad.

    Tennessee, for obvious reasons, desperately needs to win in Week 3. But the mayhem that would ensue if Malik Willis comes into town and wins is hard to imagine.
