NASHVILLE, TN, Dec. 23, 2008 — Jeff Fisher didn't see any of his Titans stomping their feet on Terrible Towels after beating the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Seeing the footage Monday didn't make him happy.

"This was just a couple guys playing around with a towel. It was unnecessary in my opinion," Fisher said.

Linebacker Keith Bulluck dropped a towel, then swiped his foot across it celebrating the Titans' 31-14 rout of the Steelers on Sunday. He wasn't alone. Running back LenDale White stomped on a towel, and defensive end Jevon Kearse used one as he pretended to blow his nose in actions replayed in video highlights over and over.

Fisher defended his players, saying the Terrible Towel is just a towel to the Titans.

"They don't understand the significance or the meaning of the towel itself to the organization, the Steelers history or the Steelers fans," he said. "On one hand, I think they were having fun and just playing with a towel. It was certainly not a shot at the organization or the players or the staff or the fans."

yeah i thought it was a bit rediculous and showing off, gives Steelers some extra motivation for the playoffs, hopefully the Titans do not get cocky, we still have a lot to prove, especially since we kind of appeared out of nowhere to take the division

That we did. I'm glad the Titans defense been clickin on all cylinders. It was the offense that I was worry about. VY10 started off bad and the receiving core is mediocre at best. Luckily Kerry Collins, Chris Johnson, and LenDale White came through for the Titans this season.
