IsntLifeFunny Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 13 minutes ago, big2033 said: In my eyes the problem has been that people who were complaining about Murray getting the carries were overjoyed when he was released - we were right, Henry should've been the man. Only for him to be placed back in another potential timeshare. It validates some previous arguments, so instead of reading some of the obvious tea leaves from the situation, some have stuck to a narrative that Henry would be "the guy." While it might happen, blatant evidence has suggested otherwise as soon as Lewis was signed. We picked up the best RB in FA who also is a perfect fit for our offense. I’m not sure why that necessarily has anything to do with Henry. It’s like you guys didn’t watch NO last year. That’s obviously what we are trying to create. Ingram was a monster last year. Was he placed in anything other than an optimal position because they drafted Kamara? And that situation is the flip side of this. Lewis is 28 and injury prone. Henry is young and an athletic monster with upside. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaFleur describes his route-running tree and scheme as “pretty different” from what the Titans ran in the past, so he's learning just how much he can throw at talented youngsters like Corey Davis, Taywan Taylor and Tajae Sharpe in the very early going. There’s only a couple holdouts left. Everyone else knows why we made the change. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor fits the traditional slot mold of a guy who is more quick than fast. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Garoppolo is the best young QB in football but Mariota is better than Carr and I find Carr to be highly overrated.

EagleEye Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 Just by the preview, the offense is going to take quite some time. Miami game is not looking as good as it appeared. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyle021 Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 I expect them to draft a WR, DE, RB in the first three rounds next season. I can see us taking Rodney Harrison from Oklahoma or Bryce Love from Stanford. Damian Harris from Bama is another guy they may like but the kid from OU is for real. He doesn’t have 4.3 speed. More 4.5 but man he runs with power, good agility, vision, strength and is a good pass blocker and receiver. Just an all around good football player.

kyle021 Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 I don’t think the offense in year one will be a huge learning task. It’s new words and formations sure, but we have three months to settle in it. Anyone expecting us to hit it full stride from the jump is crazy. Year one the offense will be much improved and I can see it being dumbed down just a bit with major take off in year 2. We have very smart players on offense. They will pick it up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyle021 Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 I don’t think Oman meant that Lewis is the default starter. I think he was talking more along the lines of him getting starter reps, and playing time. I expect Henry in the 1st and 4th quarters with Lewis taking the 2nd and 3rd and situational plays in the 4th Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
