NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The Tennessee Titans keep proving that for every step forward, they always find ways to take two back. The Titans (3-9) clinched a third straight losing record to mark first-year coach Brian Callahan’s debut season in an to Washington. Yet another slow start, more turnovers, sacks, penalties ruined their chance at stringing together consecutive wins for the first time in more than two years. Callahan said Monday they’re trying to build consistency. “In the NFL, a lot of it is about not losing the game first, and we do right now with the amount of penalties and turnovers we’ve had,” Callahan said. “We put ourselves in position to lose games and not win them. And so, yes, there is a there is an element of learning how to win.” Tennessee had 11 of 12 penalties before halftime, trailing 28-7. The Titans also were the at halftime in Week 17 of 2005 against the Jaguars. Only Baltimore has been penalized more than Tennessee this season. Two-time Pro Bowl defensive lineman Jeffery Simmons said after the loss that the Titans need to learn how to deal with winning better coming off a Simmons said they were “hungover from our own success.” Callahan said Monday he didn’t see any hangover issues. “You have a performance like that and you’re sort of grasping for an explanation on why and there really wasn’t one other than we made too many errors early in the game and put ourselves in a hole,” Callahan said. What’s working Quarterback Will Levis’ development over the four games since his return from a sprained, right throwing shoulder at least gives the Titans promise for the future. The made some nice throws and limited yards lost on two sacks Sunday. He threw two TD passes for 212 yards. Since his return, he is completing 61.7% of his passes for 960 yards with seven touchdown passes and only two interceptions with a 101.3 passer rating in that span. What needs help Now the defense is struggling after going into Washington second in the NFL in yards allowed, ninth against the run and first defending the pass. They gave up a season-high 267 yards rushing after giving up just 40 a week ago. The Titans also gave up 28 points within the first 20 minutes, becoming only the . The Titans also did that in Week 8 earlier this season after being routed by the Lions in Detroit. Washington did it against Dallas in Week 16 of 2021. Stock up WR Nick Westbrook-Ikhine. Originally undrafted out of Indiana, Westbrook-Ikhine is tied for fourth in the NFL with eight TD catches entering Monday. That’s despite starting only five games this season and not having a pass thrown to him the first month of the season. He has earned a multi-year deal with his performance. He had three receptions for 61 yards against Washington and was targeted a season-high eight times. Stock down Rookie Jha’Quan Jackson. A sixth-round pick out of Tulane and nephew of Pro Football Hall of Fame defensive back Ed Reed has fumbled five times as the punt returner recovering only two of those. That got him benched against Washington. His fumbles have come in the past six games, including one in each of the past two. His fumble against Washington led to an early touchdown. Injuries LT JC Latham hurt a quadriceps muscle but finished the game. Callahan said they will see how CB Roger McCreary (shoulder) and LB Kenneth Murray Jr. (strained hamstring) recover during the week. Key number 36 — The number of games since the Titans have had consecutive victories. Next steps The Titans at least are home with their best focus trying to improve their standing inside the AFC South with four divisional games down the stretch. They have two games remaining against Jacksonville (2-10) starting Sunday with But their biggest question now is how high does this franchise draft in April. ___ AP NFL:Providence, Oklahoma hope key players are back in Bahamas

This month, the South China Morning Post that China’s People’s Liberation Army has unveiled a detailed list of US naval targets, including radars and sensors, for potential electronic warfare attacks against US aircraft carrier strike groups. SCMP says this “kill list,” published in the latest issue of Defense Industry Conversion in China, highlights the PLA’s strategy for disrupting the US Navy’s Cooperative Engagement Capability (CEC) system, a critical component of the fleet’s air defense and early warning network. According to SCMP, Mo Jiaqian, an electronic countermeasures expert with the PLA’s 92728 Unit, authored the report and outlined how the CEC’s reliance on wireless communication links makes it vulnerable to electronic interference. SCMP says key targets mentioned in the report include the AN/SPY-1 phased array radar on Aegis ships and the E-2C Hawkeye early warning aircraft. SCMP says the PLA aims to exploit these weaknesses to access the US military network and disrupt operations. It mentions that this development underscores the growing technological rivalry between China and the US, with China leveraging its advanced electronic devices for military applications. The report says the US has responded with sanctions on Chinese enterprises, inadvertently accelerating China’s military-civilian integration. Interfering with wireless communication links and exploiting them to access adversary networks shows the increasing convergence of electronic and cyber warfare. In an August 2019 report, the US Congressional Research Service (CRS) that the convergence of cyberspace operations and electronic warfare reflects a shift in military doctrine as both disciplines aim to dominate the electromagnetic spectrum. While the report notes that cyberspace operations and electronic warfare are historically distinct, technological advances have blurred their boundaries, enabling cross-functional capabilities. It points out that while cyberspace operations traditionally employ software to disrupt or control networked systems, electronic warfare uses electromagnetic energy to jam, intercept or manipulate communications. However, the report says modern operations increasingly see cyberspace operations and electronic warfare as supporting each other, such as transmitting computer code via radio frequencies to compromise adversary networks. For example, it mentions that the US EC-130H Compass Call aircraft, initially designed to jam enemy communications, now transmits malicious code to wireless devices. This multi-domain approach to attacking networks underscores the development of multi-domain operation (MDO) “kill chains”—the process of detecting, identifying, and engaging military targets. Such chains may herald a new arms race between the US and China. In the 2020 , , Christian Brose argues that the evolving race to develop kill chains marks a seismic shift in military strategy. Brose says that, unlike traditional arms races focused on hardware like battleships or nuclear weapons, this competition centers on cognitive superiority and decision-making speed. He mentions that the US and China are racing to master technologies such as AI, quantum computing and advanced sensors that can accelerate and automate the kill chain. The goal, Brose says, is to close the kill chain faster than the adversary while disrupting their ability to do the same. Brose argues that this arms race is not just about weapons but about controlling the flow of information — turning human intent into battlefield action with unprecedented speed. In line with the multi-domain kill chain arms race, Asia Times in February 2024 that the US Department of Defense (DoD) had achieved a significant milestone with the initial readiness of the Combined Joint All-Domain Command and Control (CJADC2) system, a cutting-edge initiative aimed at enhancing military interoperability and AI integration across all warfare domains. This development marks a crucial step in the US DoD’s strategy to outmaneuver technologically advanced adversaries such as China. The CJADC2 system connects sensors from all armed forces branches into a unified network, enabling faster and more accurate decision-making. The US fiscal 2024 budget allocates USD 1.4 billion for CJADC2, underscoring its transformative potential. The system’s AI-driven capabilities enable rapid collection, analysis, and dissemination of battlefield information, allowing for swift identification and targeting of threats. This evolution builds on the older Joint All-Domain Command and Control (JADC2) concept, emphasizing interoperability with allies and partners. The initiative aims to create an information-fluent force capable of dominating networks and executing precise strikes from diverse locations. In response to the US CJADC2 concept, Asia Times in April 2024 that China developed its Multi-Domain Precision Warfare (MDPW) concept that integrates advanced technologies such as AI, quantum computing and big data into its military strategy to identify and exploit vulnerabilities in US operational systems. China’s MDPW strategy leverages a comprehensive C4ISR network to coordinate precise strikes across various domains, including cyber and space, to disrupt and dismantle the US military’s command and control infrastructure, thereby gaining a strategic advantage. However, these MDO concepts might become the latest military intellectual boondoggle, promising much while based on faulty assumptions. In a January 2024 War on the Rocks , Davis Ellison and Tim Swejis argue that MDO, while innovative, faces significant challenges in practical implementation. They point out that the primary criticisms include the lack of a clear theory of success, technological immaturity and vague threat descriptions. They highlight that MDO often relies on optimistic assumptions about technological capabilities, such as assured connectivity and rapid data processing, which are not yet fully realized. Additionally, they mention that the concept’s broad and sometimes ambiguous language leads to confusion and inconsistency across different military branches and allied nations. Ellison and Swejis argue that the absence of specific adversary identification further complicates the development of effective MDO strategies. They also point out that MDO’s emphasis on speed and precision may overlook the complexities of real-world combat, where attrition and the fog of war remain significant factors. They also question MDO’s integration within existing political and military structures, with concerns about inter-service rivalry and the feasibility of whole-of-government approaches. Ultimately, Ellison and Swejis warn that without addressing these issues, MDO risks becoming another overhyped military concept that fails to deliver on its promises, potentially diverting attention and resources from more pressing strategic and operational challenges.
:A trial on the U.S. Department of Justice's proposals to diminish Google's dominance in online search will not be delayed to give Trump administration officials more time to revise the request, the judge overseeing the case said on Tuesday. The DOJ has proposed forcing Alphabet's Google to sell its Chrome browser, and potentially the Android mobile operating system, to take away distribution points for Google search. President-elect Donald Trump expressed skepticism about a Google breakup in October. U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta in Washington said he would not move the trial, scheduled for April, in the event that DOJ officials appointed by Trump intend to revise the proposals. "If there is going to be a re-evaluation of the remedies that are being requested, it needs to be done quickly," the judge said at a hearing. The DOJ sued Google in 2020, during Trump's first term. Mehta ruled in August that Google holds an illegal monopoly in online search and related advertising. The DOJ under U.S. President Joe Biden has proposed not only to make Google sell the world's most widely used Web browser, but also to share data and search results with rivals. The wide-ranging proposal also seeks to prohibit Google to from buying or investing in search rivals, query-based artificial intelligence products or advertising technology. Google has called the proposals "staggering," and said they would harm American competitiveness. How artificial intelligence affects the landscape for online search is expected to be a key theme at the trial. Prosecutors have said they plan to call witnesses from ChatGPT creator OpenAI, artificial intelligence startup Perplexity, Microsoft and Meta Platforms.
