    Marcus Mariota - QB - Titans
    Titans QBs coach John McNulty said the offense would like to operate out of the shotgun formation "50 or 60 percent" of the time this season.


    Just as GM Ruston Webster said after selecting QB Marcus Mariota, the Titans are adapting their scheme to fit their new quarterback. Tennessee was actually sixth in the league last season in percentage of plays out of shotgun. By all accounts, Mariota is looking more comfortable under center by the day, but it's good to hear coach Ken Whisenhunt is tailoring his scheme to benefit the young passer.

    We ran tons of shotgun last year, we're not entirely changing what we do at all, huge misconception.

    I think they are changing some from the draft we had. Drafting the FB, and mauler OL, and the RB. Looks to me this offense is being tailored to Mariota. If not why looking at the other offenses that have mobile QB's. There will be changes seems like. They just didn't do it for Locker.

    According to Wyatt, the Titans ran 64.9% of plays from shotgun last year ... so 50-60% would actually be a decrease.

    But we so far behind early went to shotgun to throw ball. Maybe we run ball better and can not be behind so much so fast.

    Right. And having a running game and an OL that can block might help too.

    I was banned from the jags forum for constantly mocking the LA faguars.

    I was also banned from orange mane.com for trolling then when Peyton was deciding where to play.

    It would be nice if the Titans got good enough to go trolling again.

    Titans seventh-round pick Tre McBride explained that he is working as Kendall Wright's backup at OTAs.

    Like Wright, McBride is practicing at "F" (slot) and "Z" (flanker) in Ken Whisenhunt's offense. McBride is well built at 6-foot, 210, but the Titans' decision to place him at Wright's position suggests the coaching staff views McBride as a possession-type receiver. Once Dorial Green-Beckham's hamstring gets healthy, he will begin pushing Justin Hunter at the "X" (split end) spot.
