And do you honestly think Henry leading the league in rushing for the Ravens right now has any bearing whatsover to what the Titans should have done regarding Henry? That's pretty fucking dumb. The fans tweeting and calling in complaining the Titans didn't keep Henry are fucking idiots. The only thing dumb about it is there's little chance Henry would choose to return to such an inept franchise. The fact is we could have had Henry for the same price as Pollard, and Henry is undoubtedly the better RB. Henry certainly could have been retained cap wise. As for Tannehill, I don't know the cap situation for an extension but if it could have been done it should have been, especially if they could have still signed Ridley and the mid level free agents that were acquired. As much as the team appeared to want to move on from Tannehill and Henry, they were the two best players of this franchise of the past decade, and they still were and would be if they were on the team today. This team with Tannehill and Henry likely beats the Bears, Jets, Packers, Doplhins, and Colts. The replacements for both were needless downgrades and the franchise looks completely inept right now.

Oilertattoo Posted October 23 Report Share Posted October 23 Moving on was the right business decision for this team while it tries to rebuild. But it is depressing to see DH on pace to break Dickerson’s record and especially depressing to see him do it for the Ravens. He was the Titans identity and now the Titans have no identity to speak of. IsntLifeFunny, DCTitan, and Mythos27 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post japan Posted October 23 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 23 I think the odds of Henry now making the HOF are probably in his favor. We are still a one win team if we had decided to keep Henry. Supernope, Number9, Alzarius, and 4 others 4 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
titansfan Posted October 23 Author Report Share Posted October 23 If he gets a SB this year and maintains a similar level of production that he's at now then he'll be 1st ballot. Many consider him the last of a particular type of superstar RB. Number9 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately for you, no I don’t think the Titans should have drafted Levis or Willis, so no I don’t and never held those dumb positions. The entire point is that Henry wasn’t close to washed and Tannehill was. DrFlamehead, DCTitan, Bongo59, and 3 others 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CreepingDeath Posted October 23 Report Share Posted October 23 The idea that the team SHOULD NOT have been planning ahead for a post-Tannehill future is absurd. Tannehill was good enough for what the Titans had. But minus AJ Brown and other key pieces, Tannehill was never going to win by himself. Most QB (and all positions) picks are a gamble. Hell, the Packers made that shit bag Willis look functional, so there are even other variables involved in development. Pulling the plug on Tannehill was the right decision. Just like pulling the plug on the 2024 season and trading off assets. Mythos27, and titanruss 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said it at the time but too many believe all QBs can play to 40 because a few of the greats did it. Tannehill was busted up his last few years and had clearly declined physically. He was never going to be a guy who played into his late 30s. Mythos27, and CreepingDeath 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he really hit the wall the same age Matt Ryan and Phillip Rivers did. People were citing Brady as a standard instead of the exception.

Now that's over, let me explain why we didn't keep Henry and Tannehill. If we still had Tannehill, we would be blah be blah. Oh well, Tannehill chose the couch. We in heap big trouble now. It's all Vrabel's fault. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Number9 Posted October 23 Report Share Posted October 23 All last year, I explained that Tannehill's playing style shortened his career compared to other QBs. He would stand in and take big hits to complete passes. It was great for us, but it was obvious his body was giving out. Henry on the other hand is leading the NFL in rushing this year. He suffered from poor blocking last year when he was the #2 rusher in the NFL. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
