every game, every single game the commentators talk about how stupid it is... even as a decoy he demands attention. It is dumb on every possible level. You take out the best offensive player, hands down, and as far as passing goes, Henry kills it when he gets the ball with open field. He has some of the longest receptions of the team.
Sadly, Buddy was there the next year. They won I think 11 in a row and were rolling into the play-offs. The got up on KC (quarterbacked by Joe Montana)
I was watching with a KC fan and he says, "Doesn't your team blow big leads, like Buffalo, Denver, etc." Then they blew the lead
Sorry I digress, back to the happy news of the day
Ding, dong, the Downings dead
Chuck Cecil was awful. That drop off in defense from 2008 to 2009... but Downing was worse.
I’m sure teams are well aware that Ward isn’t getting the handoff on third and anything less than 12 yards.
Longer than that and an actual draw play is possible.
The dreaded draw play on 3rd and long. Everybody saw it coming.
I agree that LeFleur didn’t exactly light it up as our OC and not sure how that one year landed him a HC job.
But the point I was trying to make is that people keep saying that it’s Vrabel not wanting to run a modern style offense, but his first offensive hire was a new, young OC that was touted as being just that.
Curious.
We have 50 people posting how many runs were made on 1st down.
how many runs were made on 3rd down? QBs maybe scrambled, but I m willing to bet it’s less than 20%.
And of those carries, how many were just the 3rd and long draw.
partly because the best RB in the league is taken off the field, but partly because the offense never even attempts to use another RB as a threat to run the ball.
Titans Motto Just Run Henry until 3rd down lol
It’s crazy lame and ineffective.
At least robiskie just kept running him on 3rd.
edit: or until it pops.
Downing past Chow in the awful rankings
a good first start of the cleanup. Definitely the new Hires need to come from outside of organization but the OC position needs to be a young and hungry person (no more retreads or patchovers) with a mindset of pass setup the run- Titan fans are beyond tired with predictable pedestrian offense that leads to more balls Kicked than caught-this has been going on for over 20 years and really needs to stop.
Focus on offensive and being dynamic vs 3 and out High School playbook which Titan Fans have had to watch for decades now.

They're interviewing. Send them your post history, see what happens.
I seem to remember there being some chatter that Vrabel was thinking of firing, or at least demoting, LaFluer prior to him being announced as the head coach of the Packers. From what I remember, it seemed like there was tension between the two.
It thought J.Rob forced Vrabel to bring LaFleur on as the OC since he wanted to hire both of them during the HC interviews. At least, that's how I recall things going.
Not sure about that, I don’t remember hearing about a possible demotion. But I do remember not being very impressed by LeFluer. I think Art did a much better job at OC.
I mean, we were actually explosive for the first I can remember. We ended up #2 offense in 2020. It was defense that was garbage that year.
Why we called him The Flower.
Seems like Vrabel likes to hire staff that are yes people..."below him" as it makes him feel smarter I guess
The source was Taylor Lewan. He got the news LIVE while doing a podcast and said all of this.
He was joking with Downing about playing TE for him next year. Downing said, oh you're going to play for X highschool? Lmao. Just shows that he knows he's terrible and won't get another job as OC in the NFL.
