With owner Bud Adams putting everyone in the organization on notice, the 53 employees who wear helmets have responded.

The Titans lead the Dolphins 14-0 through the first quarter of Sunday’s game at Sun Life Stadium, where the empty orange seats seem to be emptier and oranger than usual.

The first score came after a Reggie Bush fumble at the Miami 28, which was followed by four-play touchdown drive. Fueled by a 21-yard Chris Johnson run, the score came when quarterback Jake Locker found receiver Kendall Wright for nine yards.

The second touchdown came from Johnson, who capped a seven-play, 65-yard drive with a 17-yard run.

The third was a pick six, with a tipped ball snatched by former University of Miami linebacker Colin McCarthy, who returned it 49 yards for a touchdown.

Those empty orange seats will be even emptier and orangerer soon.
