Sure it's possible he didn't do anything. But it's also possible he worked to improve. Again, you have no way of knowing what he did or didn't do and whether he enjoys his job or not. I do know someone who knows him a bit. He told me it wouldn't surprise him at all if he retired. Like I said, family and god are by far his priority. Again, I'd say 70% chance he retires once the Titans don't try to resign him. You have to love football to be a backup. Not sure he could start for any team that's decent in the NFL. IMO, he doesn't have the heart. rns90, and Number9 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty apparent how much or how little he did to improve had zero effects. He’s the same guy he’s been only now more and more people are coming to grips with it.

I always thought if Mariota will be elsewhere New England would be the best fit, putting him in the ultimate system.

It’s just that he’s in more of a stick it out through the year mentality rather than a “trying to be a Super Bowl winning qb” mentality. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we knew that when he was drafted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody wants Mariota but a line is created for Tannehill. If Mariota survives the season but still doesn't play well enough to be a starter he might not have much of a future. Certainly he might be given a chance as a backup or something. Still too injury prone IMO. Staying healthy so far, we think, is about all he has done right so far this year. This is how overboard this board has gotten. Now arguing that he won't even be able to get a backup job. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now arguing that he won't even be able to get a backup job. Man he could still get a one year stop gap job if Case Keenum and Fitzpatrick can get them. But it’s going to be in awful situations. His best bet is to be a back up in Philly or somewhere like that and make 5 million dollars to sit on the bench with a chance to come in and be a hero like Nick Foles was.

It's not about that. Even Locker could've signed as a backup somewhere. I think a lot of people - myself included - are starting to believe Mariota will simply walk away.

Yep. If things don't work out for him here there wouldn't be a better place for him to go to reboot his career. Sitting behind Brady for a year or two, coached up by Belichick. Plus, maybe being closer to the MIT and Harvard environment he'd feel more at home instead of down here in the redneck capital.
