NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- One final look back at a play from the Tennessee Titans' 19-17 Week 7 loss in Washington. In film review, we paid a lot of attention to a first-and-10 from the Titans 37 yard line with 1:02 left in the game. Washington needed only about five yards to get into field goal range. Safety George Wilson was wide to the Titans defensive left and lined up at the snap about 10 yards off tight end Jordan Reed, who turned about and made an easy catch for a 9-yard gain. Washington ultimately moved an additional 25 yards and Kai Forbath kicked a 22-yard field goal as time expired to win it. Why was Wilson so far off of Reed? “His ankle was bothering him and he thought the expedient thing to do was to not get beat deep, which is not what we called,” defensive coordinator Ray Horton said. “He apologized. He just didn’t think he could handle the guy.” After hearing that from Horton I went to Wilson. “You go talk to them about that, I don’t have anything to say,” Wilson said. “That was last week, I’m on to our opponent this week.”
