Re: It's A New Wrinkle Every Game
Honey, Brian does NOT get CONfused. You maybe. Brian, never. Look, I happen to think McNair is one of the better QBs in the NFL, but I have never seen ANYONE that was so able to remain calm under pressure as Brian. When I first started watching him, I thought, he is going to go to sleep out there. He doesn't though. :) Watch!

numbers will not tell you anything about our D......against the raiders game was over after 3rd.....and then they moved the ball.....the saints did nothing all day, texans and panther got 80% of their yds after we are up 28 points with jerry's kids playingD...the jags.....come on game over at 5 minutes in 3Q....we were up 27-10........we have jumped out on everyone we have played except the colts......and we laid an egg there....colts came ready to play.....we'll deal with them on 12/7 in nashville....it was our first loss ever to them.......griese will not have time to fart and ricky is a tough SOB.....but your OL is the problem not ricky......he aint running on us with or without that OL.......that leaves ST.......which i would give the fins an edge in......this game comes down to mcnair......if your D is really nicked up as is being reported.......it is a steeper climb to beat us here
Tennesee defense will play normal. No 8 man fronts unless they are blitzing. Ricky is not the feared runner to teams as you think he is. They are more afriad of getting burned by Griese.
Make em pay Ricky!!!:fire:

I disagree because I don't think your running game can get going against most defenses. So the Titans are very one-dimensional. And when you're one-dimensional, you can be beaten even on your best day being one-dimensional. As a kid, I watched Marino throw for 521 yards on my birthday.....and we lost by 2 TDs. And last month, McNair threw for 372 yards and you guys still lost to the Patriots.
I think we're that kind of defense. Teams are able to move at times. But punching it in is another proposition. I just wish we could block up front. We'd be an extremely dangerous team.

That would be interesting. If teams are really afraid of getting burnt by Griese after 1 win and 1 loss our season could get pretty interesting. Anyone who thinks Jevon Kearse is going to have Wade Smith 1 on 1 all day is an idiot. I know many people don't think highly of Wanny and Norv right now but they are not DUMB. Wade Smith will have help. If we max protect I believe Griese will pick Tennessee apart. In fact if we max protect every week Griese will be tough to contain. Sometimes I don't understand the latest NFL philosophy's of going 4 and 5 WR's and hanging the QB's out to dry. Its like O coordinators are just auditioning for college coaching jobs instaed of trying to win.

By the way. I watched plenty of the Tennessee NE game and Tennessee was lucky to even be in that game. The Pats kicked their *** despite the score.

The thing with max protect is it puts more pressure for less guys to get open. It makes you easier to defend and it takes our co-number one threat out of the mix, as Randy would stay in to block.
Still, I'm not sure typical max protection will make THAT much of a difference because our interior lineman are having trouble sustaining blocks to begin with. It's not just one guy. It's everybody. Everybody's struggling up front. You can only cover up so many spots at a time. And it comes to a point where you can't continually max protect against 4 rushers. It's just not realistic. At some point you have to block and make the back seven defend somebody.
I think we need to go back to throwing the quick outs to the WRs. Or something quick to Randy over the middle. Just take what we can get. Then when the back seven tightens up, you leave in a RB to block and take a shot deep. That's my simple little take on things. I really wish we'd start McKnight, as he has that speed to drive the CBs off the ball and get those outs, not to mention stretch the field.

McNair going to be hammered by OGun and Taylor he'll throw 2 or 3 picks, maybe a fumble or two. Fins will correct their protections and Griese will pick you apart. Rickey will have a bi day running. You guys are overrated and badly in need of a humbling whipping and it will be our pleasure to come up there and beat you down. Griese will throw for 3 Touchdowns in a one sided route.
