    Hopefully, Jake doesn't play like last week against New England. Or else it could be a long season..

    hopefully the D shows up this year or it really dont matter what JL does

    if the Titans do not start taking some caculated chances too get off the field on third downs then it dont matter what JL does.

    if the Titan D continues too allow teams too have multiple 10+ play drives every game it wont matter what JL does

    If 'the Vagician' continues his multi year streak of total suckitude it wont matter what JL does

    If CJsideways plays in 2012 instead of CJ1.4k it wont matter what JL does

    You do realize we have the top ranked defense right now, right? I'm assuming you're basing your analysis (and I say that lightly) on last year? A year we implemented a new system and had 3 rookies playing major roles without an offseason traning program? It certainly can't be based on preseason as the defense has looked stellar. Either that or you're just a troll that hasn't watched a preseason, or any game for that matter, in a few years. I say it's the latter.

    You are kidding yourself if you don't think the defense is a concern. Although the defense has looked stellar, lets take a look at who we have played. The Seahawks and Bucs, two offensive power houses.:disappointed:

    We are hit or miss right now. If we can get pressure from the edge, our biggest doubt will be okay, until that happens we have some unknowns.

    The Cardinals are worse than the Seahawks and Tampa. It still won't mean much

    QB coach said today they are planning to let Locker play to his strength. Expect roll outs and deep passes.

    I've re-watched that Tampa game now 4 times, and I've gotta say, after breaking down the tape, most of Lockers bad throws were as a result of having a defender in his face (poor pass blocking).

    The protection will naturally improve every week, so it'll be interesting to see if he's able to stay upright this game with no one in his face.

    Last year Jake would have left the pocket rolling one way and making plays, but this year he's staying in the pocket (but getting hit also), but good to see him becoming a real QB, and not a Vince Young replica.

    So in short, he wasn't that bad last week. The only thing that bothered me was that interception, but I think he's learned not to do that.
