So the reason Cody is playing "soft" on this play is because the checked into a cover 2 for some reason and he has to cover the "hole" in the cover 2 between the safeties. So I can't completely blame him on that one but he's been bad overall this year anyway. 

 

This shit is inexcusable though. It looks like quarters vs the trips of the Pats. Sometimes there is a solo call to the single receiver side, meaning Snead would have to cover his guy 1 on 1 (and Diggs being the safety on that side can "cut" any deep crosser that comes his way). Doesn't seem to be the case here but seems like both Snead and Diggs get caught flat footed peeking into the backfield. Not the type of awareness you expect from NFL players in that type of situation. We need more NFL level talent on this team. Period...

 

In most quarters and cover 3 systems, zone turns into man if the #1 receiver to your side releases vertically for more than 10 yards. The only coverages that would absolve Sneed that I know if is a traditional cover 2 and given what he's showing pre/post snap he's not playing cover 2. He's a lazy bum and I don't say that lightly. Ship his ass out ASAP.

PK said the Titans should have "honored" Vrabel and he and Buck went to Vrabel's postgame presser instead of the Titans   That's some seriously embarrassing cock gobbling   Honor h

It's panic time for Latham. He's got to improve the rest of the season. As of right now he looks like someone who needs to be replaced

If they ran Ward more it would cause the pass rush to hesitate on the pass rush and contain more

 

They should def design some runs for Ward

 

Yup. Hes not Lamar but hes shown plenty of ability scramble against NFL defenses. He needs to do it more often.

It's curious where the game is now in relation to fan expectations of what a QB needs to do. Used to be the main edict from fans was "gotta play from the pocket, let plays develop, throw first, run last."

 

That's still seen as the QB's primary job, but that isn't necessarily the way it's voiced anymore. Having a mobile QB is seen as a necessity these days instead of a cautious luxury.

Agreed. That one may not have been all on him as he looks like he's expecting help but he's on the wrong end of too many plays while making the bag that he's getting. I really wanted him to work out (really liked him as a player while with the Chiefs) but we just aren't getting the level of player that we're paying for and I think everyone should be out of patience by now. I made excuses and tried to give him a chance but fuck him.

 

And the days of Diggs may be numbered as well once we can rely on KWJ. I'm sure they're just trying not to have him do too much and aggravate his injury right now, but he'll get his chance soon!

Lyons is usually pretty good except when he gets a little too crazy about advanced stats and misses the forest for the trees.

 

He works harder than most and, I think, truly wants to be media more than a fan who makes media ... which is different from many in that old circle. 

 

But if he's the best, it's a low bar.

IMO it's all on him because any help would not be crossing over into his deep quarter/third. Even if you think that the receiver might break to the post, making him the safety's problem, he is immediately threatening your zone by releasing vertically and not breaking off his route before 10 yards. You have deep responsibility first and foremost, I really don't understand the lack of urgency. Even when he realizes how much trouble he's in, he can't be bothered to at least run hard. At the same time, this is the same dude that almost chased down Demercado a few weeks ago when no one would have noticed if he didn't. I don't understand this guy.

He dipped into the tent later in the gsme with a "quad" injury. Same shit again? Or he could be making excuses for his shit play.

The fact that he’s the best says far more about titans media than it does about Lyons.
