    Should've had half a dozen sacks on Luck. Zero excuses.

    Couldn't have asked for a better opportunity. Worst Oline in league, arguably, AND injured.

    A lot has changed. We it's like someone flipped a switch on Lewan, and he's playing like a Pro Bowl LT. Jack Conklin was expected to struggle in pass protection, he has been amazing in pass protection. Ben Jones has been better than expected. Josh Kline was a good signing and has been solid, and Spain was playing well. Also the running back that we acquired that no one was quite sure about, has returned to his 2014 Cowboys form. The only thing that hasn't changed is Delanie is still a beast, and Mariota hasn't changed, he's still playing like a rookie. The WR's are terrible as expected. We have 3 or 4 guys who would be struggling to be #3s on a good team. I didn't address the defense because you made it seem like Mariota had a garbage offense, and I just wanted to provide some perspective as to how good his offense actually is, even with sub-par receivers.

    I didn't address the defense because you made it seem as if Mariota was leading some garbage offense, and that's just not the case. Mariota has held the offense back this year. I like him, and I hate that it's true, but it's true nonetheless. Someone needs to address the terrible defense, but that is just what we expected in the offseason. The secondary is bottom 5 easy. Our D-Line including Orakpo and Morgan have been the only reason we have won 3 games, from a defense perspective.

    :injured:

    The only bright side to this season is that I've felt like we've blown it every week. Sure, we're a mediocre team, but I still have some semblance of hope for our future.

    Or, maybe I'm just a hopeless romantic.

    At least we're on the road to having 2 high draft picks to work with?

    My point was it's only been 7 games with this roster. The OL is playing great (hopefully Spain comes back), but WR is still an issue and the play calling as a whole is not great. I'm saying Mariota is still playing on a young team that was just put together this offseason (7 games ago) and they were 3-13 just a year ago.

    Titans have been in every game until the end but for all those blaming it entirely on Mariota are just wrong. That D that "won" us those games also got sacks in the wins. Today, not so much. I think they are playing as expected as well as the offense, probably better than expected, but they receive a lot of hate anyway.
