I dont think "Chow will be giving white most of the carries", this isn't a schoolyard football game, I'm sure chow did put his imput about White to the staff and FO during the draft, but why wouldn't he, he knows him as a player, he knows his work ethic and isn't the best way to make a good pick having the information behind a player and his abilities?? I would hardly say chow talked reese into Lendale, his track record and talent spoke for him, Chow coached him, who wouldn't want his imput.. As for who gets the majority of the carries it comes down to production, who EARNS the spot.. If brown stays, and he shows the type of player he can be and stay injury free, he'll get the carries, if he doesn't; just like with any other NFL team, he will get repleaced by someone who is willing to do whatever it takes to get the job... i dont really care who is carrying the ball as long as we get our running game back, who's going to do the job best?? Brown, White, Henry... who knows, the only thing for certain is someone needs to step up...
The real reason he doesn't feel like this is the best fit for him is probably a reason that will never be reported.fltitan said:
Coach's or whatever have probably cued him into the fact that he's not part of their plan here, because of who know's why, but he's not.
i doubt the coaches have cued him or anything, they have made it clear he is the #1 back as of now, and i know i just as OF NOW but why not stay a prove yourself?
There is no way White will get the bulk of the carries anytime soon. He may be familiar with parts of Chow's offense but it takes time for any RB to learn how to pick up the blitz and running routes.Vigsted said:
White isn't even in football shape right now. He'll be given a few packages but I don't expect White to get 1/3 of the carries as long as Brown stays healthy.
henry wouldnt be here if brown could stay healthy.TitanJeff said:

But few teams in the NFL don't use a second RB anymore.
Hoffa said:
I think you're right about that. If Brown feels like he should leave now, it's because something has been done or said that makes him think he's future here isn't so bright.
But even that could be a misunderstanding...like when Sirmon wanted to be released after signing Thornton.
In reference to your other post...If he stays I sure hope he proves himself...I'm for the guys in the Titans uniform...whoever wears it.

EXHIBIT A - trading a 3rd round pick for Travis Henry
EXHIBIT B - using a 2nd Round pick on a potential monster
or maybe its because there have been rumors of Denver being interested in trading for a Titan, and Chris just said "hey, I don't mind Colorado"
I can't see Shanahan being real anxious in aquiring a back fairly similar to Tatum. I feel Heimerdinger is involved in some small way if Denver is interested.
I don't think there was a plan to draft a RB early this past year. White just kindof fell to us. Heck, we traded down in teh 2nd round and still ended up drafting White. Devon Hester, the punt reterner for Miami, was apparently going to be our pick until they changed their mind at the last moment.
The Titans to me appeared content to go into the season with Brown and Henry. We didn't draft White because of Brown's injuries - we drafted White because he was too much talent to pass on despite the runningbacks on our roster.

Surely this wouldn't have anything to do with the fact that Brown recently switched agents....and his new agents don't get paid a dime unless he signs a new contract.
Nah...that wouldn't have anything to do with it.

It's like when Volek switched agents and his new one, Rosenshark, demanded a trade. The difference is Volek put a muzzle on his agent and told him to can the trade talk. Brown hasn't done that.
The day we drafted White I posted that Brown was history.
I will see my prediction come true.
Brown, great kid, great attitude, great ability. Horrible durability. He's gone.

"My client is a better fit elsewhere".....is that a nice way of saying "our o-line sucks"? :lol:
After reading the article in the Nashville City paper I agree with Nine completely. Everything the agent says makes it obvious this was his idea. Chris stays here and is the #1 rb at the beginning of the season. Yesterday I posted that the agent was just trying to protect his client I was wrong he is just looking for a pay day, I dislike agents more everyday and I already hated them.

Bullseye fltitan...you and Nine. Most of these agent pukes are bottom feeding mudsuckers. Although I would like to see some EG like toughness from him, I don't remember Brown ever complaing - about anything. Bottom line: Agent can use any ploy he wants. Reese doesn't have to do anything. Brown's under contract. If he wants to go somewhere else, he can use that as incentive, and produce this year...or not.
He certainly can request a trade, but at this point, he's not real valuable. His value can only go up if he puts up numbers this year, and that's up to HIM. I don't feel he has any leverage in this situation. He goes out this year and stinks it up, or gets hurt again, and no one will want him.

I would give the titans a fourth round pick for C brown. Hey L Jordan needs someone to carry his bags. (back him up)goTitans.com said:
