OILERMAN Posted November 13, 2016 Report Share Posted November 13, 2016 446 yards off offense(350 in the first half) 6 TDs 50% 3rd down conversion rate 7.6 yards per play today 20 of 27 passing 305 yards and 5 TDs 162 yards rushing Scored on 8 of 13 drives This isn't a one game anomaly, the offense has been great for a while now and Mariota has stepped it up into elite territory. I was really impressed with a few throw aways and on 3rd down in the redzone he ran, slid, stayed in bounds to keep the clock running and settled for the FG. Earlier in the season he was forcing plays like this. He's started to manage the game very intelligently and getting better. Mariota and Robiskie have this thing down.

kyle021 Posted November 13, 2016 Report Share Posted November 13, 2016 Offense has been beautiful the last 5-6 weeks. Matthews is turning into quite the steal of FA at WR. Having similar impact Crabtree had his first year in Oakland. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
begooode Posted November 13, 2016 Report Share Posted November 13, 2016 Second week in a row with 350 yds in the first half, yes? Mularkey and his high octane offense, lol! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Former_Fan Posted November 13, 2016 Report Share Posted November 13, 2016 The key here is the turnovers. Mariota is phenomenal without the turnovers, but costs games with. This week a huge improvement. We definitely have an identity on offense, and are surprisingly balanced as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
heyitsmeallen Posted November 13, 2016 Report Share Posted November 13, 2016 It's def obvious the offense is hitting on all cylinders the last few weeks. Let's hope they keep it up, and mariota keeps the turnovers down. Then we could be looking at the playoffs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
earlers Posted November 13, 2016 Report Share Posted November 13, 2016 Yes, this is nitpicking but running game wasn't too good after the 75 yarder. Hopefully, Lewan was the reason. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoshimitsu Posted November 13, 2016 Report Share Posted November 13, 2016 I'm very happy with Mariota's progress. He is learning more and more each week. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TitansWycheck89 Posted November 13, 2016 Report Share Posted November 13, 2016 In a season where the games have been so close, The Titans are the only team to blow out a team and they have done it twice in three weeks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Face Posted November 13, 2016 Report Share Posted November 13, 2016 Serious question......what's the record for 1st half yards over a 3 game period? My God we had 350 the 1st half today & the Jax game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
earlers Posted November 13, 2016 Report Share Posted November 13, 2016 Maybe they have turned home jinx around...too bad they'll only have 2 of the next 6 at home. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justafan Posted November 13, 2016 Report Share Posted November 13, 2016 There was a clear turn around after week 4. Since then they've gone 4-2 (should have been 5-1) and Mariota's passer rating went from middle of the pack to elite. They keep playing this way and it won't matter that the defense has started to drop off. They will win games. Not many teams can keep up with you when your QB is hanging 26+ consistently.

The play action, downfield passing has just been awesome lately, tons of credit to the staff & the QB. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TitanDuckFan Posted November 13, 2016 Report Share Posted November 13, 2016 Getting some press too: http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000738784/article/magnificent-mariota-shines-as-titans-pound-packers Quote Magnificent Mariota shines as Titans pound Packers The Tennessee Titans exotic smashmouthed Green Bay early, pummeling the slumping Packers 47-25 in Nashville. Here is what you need to know: 1. Marcus Mariota tossed four touchdowns for the sixth time in 22 career games, picking apart the Packers' secondary with precision passes, dynamic downfield throws and brilliant reads. Late in the first half, the Titans' quarterback boasted a perfect passer rating, which only began to explain how well he performed early. Mariota's combination of pinpoint accuracy and athletic creativity allows him to surgically dismantle defenses. When Mariota plays like he did Sunday (19-of-26, 295 yards, 4 TDs) the Titans are a playoff-caliber offense. <Snip> 6. Perhaps the craziest reality of this season: A previously magoo Mike Mularkey is guiding a fun, gutsy team. Mularkey called for an onside kick to open the game (failed). His halfback threw a touchdown pass. Tennessee's offense is one of the most diverse and entertaining when Mariota is in a groove. Believe it, world, THE TITANS ARE FUN. Magoo?
