I wouldn't call him a Titans homer but he's clearly a Mariota homer. Mariota homer seems way too kind to Russ. Even this thread he started he never really tries to defend Mariota, he's simply making the case that maybe Amy Adams will give MM more time whether it's warranted or not. Russ was condescendingly talking down to the people who were right, misused stats, lacked understanding of any context of what's been going on with Mariota and seemed to scream from the highest mountain tops, "Hey everyone look at me, I'm the dumbest person in the room listen to me!" Russ is a truth denier, at this point he's holding out for some kind of miraculous turn around to save face that he doesn't realize he lost long ago.

TerryBoats Posted September 22, 2019 Report Share Posted September 22, 2019 Sharpe could probably have a Tyler Boyd type of breakout season if he had a QB. Not to mention all of the other fucking careers being wasted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryBoats Posted September 22, 2019 Report Share Posted September 22, 2019 (edited) At the 6:15 mark, the question about how much blame Mariota shoulders is brought up. James Jones' answer? All of it. He basically said what we all think. That he's surrounded by a great supporting cast, and they can't even touch the ball because he can't pass and he's holding onto the football. He is saying that it's time to put Tannehill in. We have a new recruit. Then Willie goes on to talk about the OL issues, and shows clips of Mariota acting like an idiot in the pocket.

Thrill Posted September 22, 2019 Report Share Posted September 22, 2019 You can’t wait and see with Mariota if you think Tannehill can do more with the same group. Even with the O-line problems, this team is too good to start out 1-3 or 1-4. If that happens he’ll be riding the bench. OILERMAN 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomachek Posted September 22, 2019 Report Share Posted September 22, 2019 Does anyone see Tannehill winning us the Superbowl this year or ever? If the answer is no, then Mariota stays in. I don't see either as our long term solution. If Mariota is as bad as everyone is bitching about then we are destined for a losing season. Why jeopardize a high draft pick for maybe 1 or two wins?

The question isn't whether Tannehill is better than Mariota. It's whether Mariota is holding a playoff caliber roster back and the answer is yes.

What is the he guarantee Tannehill is taking us to the playoffs? He's had 1 winning season in 6 years. Cool he beat up some scrubs in preseason.

The ones asking for Mariota's head are saying he'll never turn it around, but yet expect Tannehill to elevate his game to get us to the playoffs. Tannehill was bad in Miami, and will be bad here in Tennessee. oldschool, TNTitans, and bosss50 1 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is bar none the best set of offensive skill players the team has had in a decade plus, maybe even going back to the 99-04 days. Mariota has a great supporting cast and can't do shit with them. Keep passing the blame. bosss50, and kgsTitan 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why jeopardize a high draft pick for maybe 1 or two wins? Yes, it’s absolutely true that RT could fall flat on his face. However, we have to see what he can do with the talent at wr the team has right now. He never had this much talent around him in Miami and MM is undeniably wasting all of it. You saw that highlight reel one-handed catch over his head CD had the other night-JFC let’s get somebody in there that has a chance of letting that guy eat! Don’t throw away the season without finding out what RT can do. Edited September 22, 2019 by smokeater oldschool, and PetroleroTitanico 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supernope Posted September 22, 2019 Report Share Posted September 22, 2019 I think Tannehill starts week 4 or 5. If they continue to stay the course and also do nothing about Douglas my concern level about the coaching reaches a critical level. kgsTitan 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post OILERMAN Posted September 22, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 22, 2019 Mariota is absolutely the main reason the team lost the last two games. He's missing wide open easy NFL throws that would extend the drives and score points and takes sacks, like James Jones said. If Tannehill makes half of those open plays the Titans could very well be 3-0. Teams are also playing 8 and even 9 man fronts. Teams would likely play softer vs Tannehill.
