If he's going to be on the field you can't hold him back. Or he shouldn't be playing. Stupid thinking here. Let him scramble if he needs to but holding him back from an intentional run is not dumb at all. It's stupid to allow that play in a preseason game... opening him up to getting his for zero reason. You dont call that that regardless of the QB and regardless of injury history. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those teams view there qbs as irreplaceable. Not saying he didn't need to play but you can't have the season ended on a ridiculous play like that. Remember the blindside hit McNair took against KC. The point I'm making is if he's not able to do it yesterday then he shouldn't be on the field. My thought on qb runs is they should rarely happen. So I'm certainly not defending it.

They put him in a safe play with plenty of blockers. He Slid. You don't do that in a preseason game with a qb coming back with a serious injury lik that EagleEye 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a big deal either way but I'm politely telling the fan lets go with something else. titanruss, and scine09 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it is nice to see young guys making plays in any situation to build their confidence but one has to keep things in prespective. The Titans are not a very good team but they are developing talent and that is part of the process of becoming a good team. The most positive post I've seen from titanez.

He can do everything right on the run (like he did) and all it takes is a defender to blast him helmet to helmet on the slide. Yeah, we get a 15 yard penalty but our QB is now concussed. titanruss 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a big deal either way but I'm politely telling the fan lets go with something else. pretty sure when they let the fan "call the play", what they are really doing is giving them a choice of 3 plays. marcus run, henry run, marcus pass. when those are the options the coach gives, what is the most exciting idea? of course they pick "marcus run" mularkey should be fined by AAS by even having that option on the table.

The fact is, he takes far more punishment standing in the pocket than he does running the ball. This is flat out wrong. japan 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having linemen, rbs, or lbs roll up on his legs is much more dangerous than him getting hit while moving. Carr got the same injury last year by standing in the pocket, just as Mariota did.
