kgsTitan Posted November 21, 2020 Report Share Posted November 21, 2020 The season has been completely derailed by injuries. Very unfortunate, but it happens. Once Lewan went down, the wind was mostly out of my sails with regard to a Super Bowl, and it's completely out now. I'll still watch, but this is a 9-7, 8-8 team now and they're going nowhere. The two most frustrating aspects are that we were ready for a run and it ain't happening this year, and, two, I despise Vrabel's Belichick-esque refusal to be honest about injuries. I get it, but I hate it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Williams and Campbell out, we’ll need to pound the football. Yeah, the Clowney thing isn't as big a deal since they have people there to replace him at least from a pass rushing standpoint. He really should have gotten the surgery during the Bears week though. Vaccaro hasn't been playing well, so Hooker may be an improvement. The OL with Douglas and a hobbled Jones scares me against that Baltimore front and defense. tgo 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
2ToneTerror Posted November 21, 2020 Report Share Posted November 21, 2020 Let’s be honest, Clowney isn’t a huge loss. I think the call ups and Evans on edge will cover that. Vaccarro hasn’t been lighting it up either. I don’t see a huge drop off with our depth. Net Zero. No Saffold, no Adoree (still), hobbled Ben Jones. That’s the pain.

ctm Posted November 21, 2020 Report Share Posted November 21, 2020 I feel a little better about the game with Ben Jones trying to go. A scrub at C next to Douglas was a recipe for disaster, especially for Tannehill. IsntLifeFunny 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Baltimore beat reporter said earlier in the week on 104.5 that he didn't expect Calais Campbell or Brandon Williams to play this week. Be our good luck if that holds true, but they always seem to have capable backups. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has instincts, and is more athletic than Vaccaro and will offer more range in the secondary but the jury is out on his run stopping abilities in my opinion. 10 A See 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vaccaro was good the first few weeks but has looked like crap after that. I am with you 2. I also want to see if they will play closer to the line and drop Byard back deep where he belongs with hooked being able to cover the shorter stuff.

I won't even go into my list that includes Logan Ryan and Cabrera. The team the Titans field tomorrow is no where near as talented as they were the last trip to Baltimore. When you say they will not miss Clowney, it sounds funny. But Clowney play is not why the defense is playing poorly and I expect worse without him. jmo.

His value was in setting the edge deflecting balls and pressure. Most of the forum were acting like we were trying to sign Reggie white. It was nonsense.

Haof this place was pounding the table so hard for him they were willing to pay him like 18-20mil. I won't waste my time to go back and look but there were dozens of people saying he would fix all our pass rush problems. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
