And finally got a turnover on a desperation hail Mary? Have another one! A dominating defense creates turnovers and scores points. That ain't us. I'm glad we won. But let's not pretend the team that beat the Jets is that much different from the one that got waxed by the Texans and Colts. The defense, offense, and special teams are all adequate, and all get exposed by better teams. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of all the things to bitch about, the defense giving up 15 points to Josh McCown isn't one of them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's essentially a screen play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

titanruss Posted December 3, 2018 Report Share Posted December 3, 2018 One thing I noticed a few times this game is that on screens like 3 times there was two guys looking back for the pass. I think we are running some sort of option choice screens. Pick the guy who will have better blocking and hit him. Maybe im just seeing things but it appears diffeeent than most screens I see.

wiscotitansfan Posted December 3, 2018 Report Share Posted December 3, 2018 5 hours ago, patsplat said: Josh McCown is a 39 year old, 23-52, 80 QBR journeyman. He's the definition of a backup QB. Every starter in the league out to beat him. You do realize the the broadcasters were saying how when they talked to the Titans defense they said they were excited to likely go against Darnold? The guy who's thrown the most INTs in the league while missing games even. The reason Darnold is being touted as the starter is because he is a rookie and they want him to learn on the fly, if it was a fair competition though he would be the backup.

AvgJoe Posted December 3, 2018 Report Share Posted December 3, 2018 It’s amazing what happened when LaFleur finally took a shot and called a play for down field. Yeah, I know some will say Mariota missed it. But he hit 2 of 3 and backed the defense off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with this and was saying in the second half 'where were these deep shots to loosen up the Jets defense early on' but I would be interested to see if maybe we had some of these plays called in the first half and Mariota failed to pull the trigger because of coverage.

h4t Posted December 3, 2018 Report Share Posted December 3, 2018 Vrabel said today in his press conference that there was not a fake punt called. When I saw #41 peel off and not block anyone I said to myself that he would be on the street today, then I realized it was Trawick and changed my mind.

Of all the things to bitch about, the defense giving up 15 points to Josh McCown isn't one of them. And the defense was dominant from late 1st half on. We really dominated the game after an ugly start. I can't imagine how much we must've ohtgained them by from late 2nd qtr on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not going to admit to it for strategic purposes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flarb Posted December 3, 2018 Report Share Posted December 3, 2018 If your team can’t win the SB, changes must happen, regardless of position. The changes must continue until you win the ring. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
