Yes, we get it. No one is screaming for him to get playing time lol. The entire exercise is futile. If he doesn't get snaps then welp there you go. If he does end up getting snaps it's because the offense is a complete train wreck and you might as well try it out...which the latter point is the reason there's even a discussion. 

 

No one cares except those acting like we don't understand the ST aspects of the reasoning by the coaching. It's rather annoying. 

If he’s not getting playing time, why is he’s getting called up and wasting a roster spot on the 54?

Reminds me of when i was a kid. Me and my buddies went to busch gardens and the place was mostly dead, we got on one of those swinging pirate ship rides. Was just us and another group of 4 people. 

Good to see Kevin Winston completely off the injury report for the first time this season which goes hand in hand with Dennard Wilson's comments earlier this week that Winston's play time is going to

Maybe, YOU feel like you aren’t screaming but there is definitely a collective SCREAM in this thread that’s been going on since before training camp. The annoyance, believe me, works both ways.

It's also funny coming from a bunch of Callahan apologists. If the offense wasn't dead last by a wide margin, and thus far entering into historically inept, do any of you think this is a conversation? Obviously not. 

Who the f has apologized for Callahan? I was probably his biggest detractor going into the season.

I haven't seen anyone complain about him not being elevated. It's a running joke more than anything. Having people come out of the woodwork to browbeat as if it's retarded to want and try out a guy with a connection to Ward is pointless besides the casual mention that it's unlikely to happen because of STs, which is a fair take. 

 

XR won't get snaps until he can either play STs (unlikely) or the team completely bottoms out under McCoy (likely). 

 

That is wholly different from people saying fuck the season let's try some shit out. That's at the least understandable with how bad the offense has been. I'm not sure why that would make people take shots at anyone.

No, not in any meaningful way. I've seen people say the product on the field has been so bad that we might as well try. There's a big difference. No one thinks he's some super secret weapon we just aren't using lol.

Sorry man, but this is a laughable take. People have been clamoring for XR for four months straight. Long before it was obvious the Titans were this bad.

That did happen when he went undrafted and signed to the team. I haven't really seen it at all in-season until the wheels came completely off. And even then it's more a joke/disillusionment with the team than anything.

This is why you don't coach a sport even at the junior levels. Its so far out of touch with what coaching entails its not even funny.... @Mythos27 you believe this shit?

Yeah, I like his idea as a fan. These are things that fans are interested in seeing, myself included but as a coach you would never do this. Right or wrong, by this point in the season you know your players so well (or at least feel you do) that making wholesale changes like this en masse is not something you would consider. If you're tying to win now, you tend to be a lot more conservative. There is also the element that the veteran players would feel like you're giving up on them.

This season is such a train wreck that we aren't even discussing the game or Ward's development haha. What a shit show. 

 

right? lol. You and @Callidus are annoying me with this topic but you guys are still my boys and two of the better posters here... This season fucking sucks. How many Titans fans are actively rooting for them to go 1-16 to get the #1 pick? Its way more than any of us want to admit. for myself I want a win today, draft position can get fucked.

There just isn’t enough talent and also the odds are very HIGH that they get run out of the building in the first quarter 21-0.

did anyone else just see the report on NFLN that the Colts plan to sign Jones to an extension? They aren't even messing around with the tag. I think thats crazy after only 7 games. He's been good but many QBs have gone on a half season bender like that before. Makes you wonder if they are over reacting to what happened with the Vikings and letting Darnold walk?
