NASHVILLE – Marcus Mariota has focused on himself in the past week, finding ways to make his game – and the Titans – better.

Even though teammate Delanie Walker said the team's recent struggles shouldn't be pinned on his quarterback.

"I am very confident in 8 -- he has been getting it done," Walker said of Mariota. "It is tough being a quarterback in this league – you take all the blame, no matter what. And that guy, he's not going to say anything about anyone. It doesn't matter if someone dropped a pass on third down, or he got sacked multiple times. He is going to just say it was his fault, and he has to do better. And that is the sad part."

Mariota wasn't feeling sorry for himself on Wednesday.

He's getting ready for Sunday's game against the Falcons, and it can't get here fast enough. The Titans have lost two straight games, including a 20-7 loss to the Jaguars last Thursday.
