stormi Posted May 1, 2023 Report Share Posted May 1, 2023 This is an outrageously talented top 11 There aren't even any "maybe" guys, all 11 are objectively fantastic players Don't mind starting #17 but the keys should be in Levis' hands by midseason. Evaluating and assessing him as a long term asset is the most important task. He's 24 years old, not a 22 year old like Mahomes/Allen/Herbert were in their first seasons. titanskick8851, oldschool, and titanruss 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctm Posted May 1, 2023 Report Share Posted May 1, 2023 The issue isn't whether the offense will be good or bad. The issue is whether RT or Levis makes it better to start the season. titanskick8851 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamalisms Posted May 1, 2023 Report Share Posted May 1, 2023 He has potential to be better but that's meaningless until he shows it. Considering we're but a few days since he was drafted, it's less hysterical and more that it makes sense nobody is saying what he will do. big2033 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titans279 Posted May 1, 2023 Report Share Posted May 1, 2023 I am still curious what has to change for Tannehill to get another deal here. We all laid out a ton of reasons why it made sense for the Titans to rework his deal and yet they didn't seem to want to. Before this draft many here also said age was not a factor that should be considered. The only reasons given for his decline were poor OL and WR play and his injury. If the Titans thought that they would have extended him. I don't think the Titans are box score scouting their own QB, so something other than improved statistics needs to happen if they're going to retain Tannehill.

Will be interesting if the wheels completely fall off and we end up with a top pick next year to land a QB. stormi 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing. The main reason to move on from Tannehill is he isn't good enough. When you start from that mindset, you don't need to ask a lot more questions about Levis or anyone else. Levis will get a chance because we can't move forward with Tannehill. Nobody is scouting Levis, we've scouted Tannehill.

Nothing. That's because the people who want to start Levis do not want to start him because they think he's better than Tannehill. Some teams play their young players to get experience instead of a veteran who might give them a better change to win. I fully agree that there's no indication that the Titans are doing that. It's a valid opinion though. They just disagree with what the Titans and many here want to do. IsntLifeFunny, and Mythos27 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hysterical because the whole "potential" is rooted purely in hope. Not in the assessment of the player's abilities to date. The concerns with accuracy and decision making is why he didn't go round 1 to begin with. The hope is that he miraculously improves in these areas. If not, he's Jake Locker.

I mean we were 6-6 last season in games that #17 played and his numbers have been declining yearly since his bell curve peak in the 2019/2020 seasons. We also haven't given him any real weapons to work with maybe as an indirect towards our intentions for the immediate future. I doubt we'll be top 3 or even top 5 bad, but a top 8 pick would leave us in a great spot to hit a homerun on a foundational piece. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
