Hitting him in the chest is not always the best option. Giving the receiver the ability to open his body to immediately progress forward is just as important --- hitting him in the chest would at least to some small portion reduce the progression forward.
"Catch the ball first, then run." -- yes, but if your QB can mitigate both by placing it where you can make a play on it while your body is in direct facing of the endzone, then that is just as important.
The one statement that holds water in all cases ---- "if you get your hands on it, you gotta catch it."
willis threw the receiver open on first play of game
of course Titans probably practiced that play dozens of times... but still credit where due

For as long as his knee holds up. We haven't had a good RB aside from Henry since Demarco Murray.
This Malik film breakdown of Saturdays performance is legit.

My thoughts.
Both QB played ok. BUT Neither QB was able to push that ball downfield. You can blame the qb, the wr, the line, or the offense, but the matter is still unresolved. We are still looking at trying to move the ball 80 yards in 15 plays, and that isn't going to put points on the board. Too many opportunities to fail.
Willis was better than Levis, but nothing special. Just ok.
Biggest concern was that Levis missed the big play on the final drive. It was there for the taking. He missed the throw. Winners don't miss that one. They just don't. Willis also missed those first down throws right in front of him. So not excited about that.
And we threw short of the chains a couple of times.
So for me, I see the same problems despite some mild improvement. No downfield completions. Playing short of the sticks. And missed some clutch opportunities.

well... upon further review and allowing for multiple angles
GoT admits his memory of first play of game was flawed and willis did NOT throw receiver open... in fact it appears to have been an off script play ... but still a good play
exhibition football...
vrable best play starters next 2 games otherwise hard to not predict M*A*S*H 2023 Groundhog Day again
Willis still sucks and that guys voice is like the male version of Fran drescher. I wanted to stick hot forks in both ears listening to him.
Murray was one of better FA acquisitions! Damn fine player for us! Turned on Henry, and questioned that giants balls!
Murray helped turn this team around and helped the RB position here not be a joke anymore.
Murray was good stuff, I don't think he was an fa pick up tho, I think it was like a swap of 5th rounders (steal tbh)
I’ve been corrected. Even better for 4 swaps- gold!
Pretty excited about Will Levis. Not the most accurate QB, but it’s clear he has incredible arm strength and is very athletic.
Jake Locker says hello.
Jake Locker didn't even like football.
Truth. Personality wise they couldn’t be more different. Levis seems like if you took football away from him he’d pull a Thelma and Louis.
