socaltitan Posted October 14, 2020 Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 We don’t need Tannehill to improvise like Russell Wilson or Mahomes. Him playing how he’s playing is plenty good enough. He’s been incredibly efficient The SEA OL is not good, but Wilson will take unnecessary sacks. There’s good and bad to a QB improvising. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckily, I think the biggest weakness is run defense and not pass defense. Pass defense is much harder to correct during the season than run defense. I expect by December Henry will be taking over games again and the defense will be playing much better to help augment an explosive passing attack. We've got to hope that as the year goes on, Adoree returns (and to form), Fulton keeps learning on the job and becomes a viable starter level CB. ILBs, S, OLB all very solid and I must admit that I've been pleasantly surprised by the DT depth. Nothing stellar and yes run D an issue but Crawford seems OK and Mack, Murchinson at least putting in some meaningful reps. Also feeling somewhat better on OL as Sambrailo has been functional as well. Since we all know that Lewan is always guaranteed to miss reps if not games. Don't even want to talk about Wilson but can only hope that MAYBE he can at least be an active backup by end of year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they can fix their 3rd and long defense to just be average, that would be huge. The hysterical thing is that this defense is 9th in scoring defense and has forced the 3rd most takeaways Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the overall philosophy but letting teams convert and continue to take shots will equal points eventually. You can see the talent though. Sometimes it just takes some time.

Would be interesting to see their 3rd down conversion stats pass/rush compared. Mahomes gets sacked less too I think. There's much more to it than the overall stats but yeah, RT is doing almost everything very well rn. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They arent as reliant on the run game as we are ( or at least reliant on teams keying on it).. nor the PA to generate a pass game. Mahomes is better after the 1st read and creating downfield plays with his feet by extending plays very very often. Yes, chiefs have more speed.

I get we have been without Adoree all year, but outside that, every other team had the same weird off-season we did, yet they aren't allowing conversions at a 60% clip. We're also missing Jurell Casey. Granted, that's the Titans fault, but he and Simmons would have been causing problems for offenses on 3rd down.

The comparison with Lamar Jackson is ridiculous. People keep comparing Ryan Tannehill with running quarterbacks. He's a much better passer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No1TitansFan Posted October 14, 2020 Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 Something that got mentioned last night was Tannehill commenting on how effective Vrabel was at holding his players accountable, obviously inferring that was something that didn't happen with the Dolphins. When you hear that you tend to correlate that with coaches like Coughlin who, while they have initial success, create a toxic environment that players stop buying into by treating them like high school age students at a military academy. Vrabel does it differently; he holds his players accountable yet at the same time is a 'players coach' who puts his players safety and health (injury wise) first by closely monitoring reps and giving guys days off for maintenance purposes and not rushing guys back from injury. He's also damn good at game management as was once again evidenced by the end of half sequence last night. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't want to feel like a jerk and keep correcting him so I just held my tongue. Now I see he's infected more of you so I had to speak up and say something! Oh shit I forgot I was spelling that wrong! Thanks for the reminder Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
