    Fair enough. Just about everyone here has complained about our FO at some point.

    i only read 2 pages.. surprised it's already at 21.. really i haven't even thought much of this whole situation.. seems pretty par for the course

    not sure why anyone's surprised at this kind of stuff at this point

    my thought at the headline.. "oh he's still not signed? ok" the apathy is so strong

    Bold is 100% B.S. Second sentence is also complete BS, as you are making things up... you're stuck under the impression we only negotiate with our top picks via the media.. not in private with our player's agents.

    Underwood is a moron. The Texans didn't give Clowney offsets last year, yet gave their first round pick this year offsets. So much for "precedence." "Incompetence" is more like it.

    I'll say it again. It has no impact on Marcus' negotiations. Not even Underwood is making that case, so you're the one making things up. Underwood is saying that giving Mariota no offsets means every future first round pick will demand them. Unless he's the world's worst negotiator, he only needs to look at other teams who have had no offsets for top 2 picks, and offsets for lower first-round picks. Is the guy senile, incompetent, a liar, or all of the above?

    So, the Titans only negotiate some things in the media, and not others? Sounds like a Clown Show FO.

    If ***** ass mariota holds out that better open up a real life best player wins qb battle. In which case mariota might as well hold out and re enter the draft next year, cuz that's a battle he ain't winning.

    Underwood is adamant about the offset language- I'm adamant that I won't spend another dime on Titans gear, Titans tickets, Titans crappy food, Titans overpriced beer, or anything else until they act like they care about fielding a competitive product and improving the fan game day experience. I dare say even Bud would be disgusted with the product of late.

    You have no clue what and what not has been brought up in negotiations as to why we want to continue to not include offsets (besides that we have never included them before). None of us do. Therefore, if you'd want to maintain any form of being a credible poster on this forum, I advise a chill pill (rate you that in a second) and to not make up bs or jump to uninformed conclusions that show your true knowledge of what's going on in this contract negotiation.
