OILERMAN BLOG: WEEK 10

Fitz played great in a fantasy league way, his last TD was garbage and his fumble was devastating. He was better than Locker by default, but it is very possible the Titans don't win another game with Fitz at the helm. Locker shouldn't have been playing then if he can't run. He's not a pocket passer like Manning, never will be. He was drafted as much for his athleticism as anything else.

My guess is they treated this game more like a preseason game with little game planning since they had a short week afterwards to prepare for a much tougher Colts team. I think they thought they could just line up and run CJ off tackle all day and win the game...it certainly looked that way from the first half play-calling.

There is no wY this is true but if it was Munchak should be fired today

Maybe a slight exaggeration, but there's no way they could install a complete game plan for Indy unless they got started before today. I also suspect they wanted to play Jacksonville close to the vest and not expose anything that might be part of the Indy game plan.

 

I do agree that if it's true it doesn't reflect well on Munchak.

Yesterday, the picture also became a lot clearer to me. I had my doubts before and in a fanciful state of mind coudl convince myself that we were on the brink of breaking out.

 

There are a lot of good players on this roster and a lot of players who we need to part ways with and some who have well over stayed their welcome.

 

The overhaul needs to happen this off season. Once again, we need to look for a franchise quarter back. Locker is injury prone and I've decided he could still be one of the top 32 QBS in the league but we need a top 10 QB if we want a legitimate chance of the super bowl. It's time to move on. Jake will fade away into the obscurity of a backup role and maybe have a resurgence at some point.

 

CJ is just not a top RB and is too over paid. We need to get a stable of running backs with a variety of skill sets for way less and invest elsewhere.

 

I can't for the life of me understand why the O-line isn't playing better, but I think we need to send Bruce packing with Munch. It's a meritocracy, sorry guys. Big Country needs to be upgraded and then we need some better coaching.

 

Tex (discouraged but no longer kidding himself)
