I'm pretty sure I said it last year on one of the threads for Kaepernick, the players need to turn the kneel into a prayer circle and then do some press releases and talk that they are going to continue to kneel and while do so, pray for peace, justice and safety of first responders and military.
Let the crowd boo that. I'd imagine this is happening some now, but if it was made apparent and widely done, it might change the optics.

Depends on how bad it gets, I would figure. They are a pretty decent 0-5 team, don't think they are the worst team in football by a few clubs.

they're in the bottom 5 easy

well they have no receivers left, eli is much diminished and getting hit every time he drops back, and the defensive backs are quitting. several of these things aren't mcadoo's fault, but i'm not sure he's capable of fixing them
i don't see them winning in denver, then they have seahawks and rams at home. i guess they could win one of those?

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Tennessee Titans wide receiver Rishard Matthews appears to be absolute in his decision to stay inside during the national anthem, saying he is willing to give up his profession rather than being forced to change his protest over social issues.On Thursday afternoon, Matthews was asked by Matt Parker, a local Nashville producer, via Twitter if he would continue to remain in the locker room during the anthem if the NFL created a rule requiring players to stand or face a penalty."No, I will be done playing football," Matthews responded.Matthews, who hit the field for the Titans' Thursday afternoon practice, quickly deleted the tweet. He was not available for reporters during locker room availability Thursday.
