Week 8 - Titans vs. Colts Discussion

[oldschool]

I would understand the argument somewhat if Restrepo was on the 53. Dude is the last WR on the practice squad totem pole and fans still want to see what he can do because the wr room is bare. Saying he hasn't done shit in practice isnt an appeal to authority. Its literally the evidence that anyone should need to understand why hes not getting real reps in games.

 

This isnt your rec league or high school team where you can just throw anyone in. This is the NFL. You dont elevate someone off the practice squad just see what they can do in a game.

I predict Lance McCutcheon will be elevated before ReElevateNo!

Indianapolis’ Jonathan Taylor has 11 touchdowns this season -- five more than the entire Titans team that the Colts are playing today. Taylor also is on pace to lead the NFL in carries, rushing yards and rushing touchdowns – a running back’s Triple Crown, a feat he also accomplished in 2021. Taylor would be the first player to win multiple rushing Triple Crowns outright since Jim Brown did it in 1958-’59 and 1965.

I'm still laughing at the circle jerking happening from people acting as if anyone is up in arms about XR not being elevated.

In the 58 page thread where people are saying why not elevate him? 

 

Yea that's crazy

[Supernope]

I heard Amy demanded Restrepo stay on PS because she once smiled at him but he only half smiled in return

That's how terrible the team is. We are getting blown out on a regular. No one is up in arms about him besides Ninja. That's literally it. The rest of it is discussing how the team is the worst in the NFL so hey maybe give Restrepo some snaps with Ward to see if they have a connection. The offense is scoring the least amount of PPG of any team since 2008. Spare me the brow beating.

Yes they do, teams do it every year lol. 

 

Are you guys seriously at the point of derangment from not wanting to see this one guy play that younare now claiming teams have never throwen some random dude out there to see what they have to work with once the season was lost. 

 

Restrepo is quickly becoming my favorite player on this team and i wouldn't have cared if they cut him 2 weeks ago(i dont really care if if they cut him now but ill be damned if i dont wana see the kid get a shot because you all have lost your minds.)

From the beginning the the incredulity has always been mostly from those clutching their pearls at the thought of a 4.83 guy actually getting a single, solitary snap in an NFL game. And any time anyone has dared introducing an argument with any opposing variable it's... this.

 

This is how these divides always happen. It's quite religulous and I shall not swallow the dogma.

I expect better from you. Teams don't promote guys in the 60-70 range, literally the last few guys on the overall roster just to see what they can do. Restrepo doesn't play special teams and the team has seen fit to elevate every other WR before him. Ask yourself why instead of this dumb shit where you think he should play because it won't hurt. The fact they elevated a guy like Kinsey over him tells you everything you need to know, you and others just won't accept it.

[oldschool]

This is mind boggling. The Titans should elevate a guy who wasn't drafted, who is slow, who doesn't play special teams, and can only play the slot, all because he was Ward's college teammate... do you guys even read the crap you post? There isn't a team in the league that is rostering WR8 under these circumstances.

I mean you know it's true. You're making us look bad!

It tells me the coach is a lunatic who thinks he can still "salvage" this season, whatever that actually means at this point idk.
