BALTIMORE -- Observed and heard in the locker room after the Tennessee Titans' 21-7 loss to the Baltimore Ravens:

Not benched: Shonn Greene and coach Ken Whisenhunt said the running back played a couple snaps after his goal-line fumble killed the Titans' game-opening drive.

His presence certainly wasn't substantial, even as Whisenhunt said this week Greene would get more chances the more the Titans played in their base personnel. We certainly saw the most we have of fullback Jackie Battle in some time, but we hardly saw Greene.

Greene got three carries at the end of the Titans' 15-play, 79-yard march to open the game. He didn't touch the ball after that.

No one would have blamed Whisenhunt if he did pull Greene after the turnover.

"I thought I did [score]," Greene said. "But I wasn't sure, so I just tried to keep pushing, and that's when I started turning and stuff. I can't put the ball out there for the refs to make that decision, so that's on me."

Blown call: The biggest officiating issue I had out of the game was how the crew missed a blatant face mask on a second-half sack of Zach Mettenberger.

Elvis Dumervil pretty much dragged Mettenberger down by the face. With the emphasis on protecting quarterbacks, I don't understand how that can go unseen.

The rookie quarterback didn't want to appear to question referee Walt Coleman or his crew but suggested we just watch the film and would see if something was missed.

Ouch: As he dealt with his clothes to get ready to get dressed, Titans defensive end Jurrell Casey accidentally snapped his belt up in the air and hit himself in the face.

Despite being the team's best defensive player, Casey has been hard on himself this season. I told him he didn't need to beat himself up that way.

Unified: No one suggested otherwise that I heard, but Mettenberger made it clear after the game that the locker room is not fracturing.

"We've got the right guys in this locker room," he said. "There is no mutiny going on."
