Righteous Posted November 16, 2018 Report Share Posted November 16, 2018 11 hours ago, TF_Titan said: Mariota is a better QB than McNair was at this stage of their careers. That doesn't mean Marcus will ever be as good as Steve eventually became, but early on McNair couldn't read a defense to save his life. They ran the hell out of Eddie and basically told Steve to just not turn it over...which is why Wycheck was consistently their leading receiver. McNair played for Jeff Fisher nearly his entire career. Let that sink in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
big2033 Posted November 16, 2018 Report Share Posted November 16, 2018 Guys they used this comparison in Mariota's first two years. It just doesn't make sense to compare to McNair. VY and Locker make sense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TF_Titan Posted November 16, 2018 Report Share Posted November 16, 2018 There's a reason they called it "Dare McNair". I loved Steve, but it took him a while to develop. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think had he got a better coach instead of fisher who didn’t cater to his strengths we could’ve gone far with him. I know I’ll get killed for that opinion This explains a lot about Xander and why you should just discount his BS posts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember that Joel was probably one of those guys booing McNair in the early years... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

XAEA12 Posted November 16, 2018 Report Share Posted November 16, 2018 1 hour ago, JoelinBellevue said: Because he didn't care about the Titans. When Young was here, there were camera shots of him and VY laughing it up on the sidelines while we were getting our ass beat. He was supposed to mentor VY (he couldn't pass himself, I don't know how they expected that to work), but he never did anything for him. There are ither things that happened too, but no sense in stirring shit up. He's gone and it's a new era. He was a jerk for laughing with VY on the sidelines? But they never played together. I don't care if you like the guy or even think he's a jerk, I just never heard anyone think he's a jerk and I'm curious why Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, this. For me I didn't have faith in McNair until that game when he came off the bench for an injured Neil O'Donnell. Forgot who they were playing (Bengals maybe?). I liked McNair but was on the fence about him being the franchise QB, and he sealed that game and pretty much never looked back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And even if this wasn't total made up bullshit, the whole idea that aging veterans are supposed to mentor the young guys coming in to take their place is overblown. Some guys have done that, plenty have not. When you are an aging player and still think you have good years left, it's bullshit to be beat up over not mentoring the guy coming to take your job. And it is overblown from the other side. Young players follow strength and production, not wise, aging veterans. The idea old washed up guys can be leaders in the locker room is largely a myth. These are alphas and when you don't have it anymore and players know it, largely you can take your rah rah shit and shove it up your ass. That's just how most of these guys are wired. So other than making up something that never happened, and that was based on a bullshit premise anyway, nice work Joe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Int % td% completion% ypa/ypc. 3rd down %... find those... find the league averages for each time period... project what McNair’s/ vys #s would be in today’s game. The.n compare to Marcus. Then you can see It's your lucky day. Im off today and bored as hell. Give me a hour and you will have it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
