NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Observed and heard in the locker room after the Tennessee Titans' 26-10 loss to the Dallas Cowboys at LP Field:
Quiet the home crowd: There was more pregame buzz at LP Field than there has been in some time. And the Titans quickly quashed it with lifeless, ineffective play.
Ultimately, the large share of the crowd composed of Dallas fans chanted "Let's go Cowboys" to a degree that really bothered a lot of the home team.
"We can't have fans chanting 'Let's go Cowboys' at home," said tight end Delanie Walker, the team's standout positive on a terrible day. "That doesn't help the cause."
Said running back Shonn Greene: "We don't want that. That's on us. We've got to give the fans something to cheer about and cheer for. We've got to execute better and give them a better game."
Flipped the score: The Titans won in Kansas City a week ago, 26-10. That's the same score as this loss to the Cowboys.
There was a lot of talk about self-inflicted wounds and how it wasn't what the Cowboys did, but it was what the Titans did -- and didn't do.
"We were the enemy," safety Bernard Pollard said.
He dropped a likely pick-six when tight end Jason Witten broke up the play in the third quarter. The Titans had just closed it to 16-10.
"He made a great play," Pollard said. "I've got to hold that ball."
Injury update: Coach Ken Whisenhunt said he didn't anticipate the groin injury that cost cornerback Jason McCourty the second half being a major issue going forward.
