    Couldnt have written it better myself.

    So damn frustrating. Its just painful to watch.

    3rd and 3 so we go long to Davis into triple coverage.

    When you consider what we’ve invested in the D v the O, it screams coaching, coaching, coaching. And that’s giving JRob a pass that his picks are worthy of where we took them. (Which I’m a minority opinion that’s he’s average or only slightly above average GM).

    Neither. Teams are game planning to take away our run game because they don't fear our passing attack. Why do you think the opponents often have 8 and 9 men in the box? Because they know we can't win if we can't run.

    The past few games, I've really started noticing even announcers calling out our scheme. Predictable, only a few guys running routes, etc. They were looking at the int intended for Walker yesterday, and even said what else do you expect Mariota to do? There were 2 guys running routes, just stupid.

    There were 3. It's really annoying that people are complaining when they don't even know what they're talking about. Walker, Supernaw and Decker were running routes on that play. And both Supernaw and Decker were safer options.

    LOL

    I will assume Vigsted is telling truth...

    that is 1 option less than routine in the NFL and, in the situation the Titans were in, 2 less than the 5 max.

    not saying 5 should be done on the regular but when the game situation dictates WTF not?

    It's a play-action because Arizona was stacking the box. If 5 receivers immediately go on routes do you think any defense would buy the play-action?? Of course not.

    Idk how an owner of a company could watch thier managers (coaches) every week and see a blatant disconnect and not address it. I'v worked in management for years with many different types of owners, but one thing they all have in common is they all expect at least decent performance everyday.

    Our qb has regressed and is put into horrible situations continuousy. Our playcalling is beyond predictable and ineffective. This team only has wins because delanie coming up big and our d always keeping us in the game. Our fo needs to grow some freaking balls and cut the fat right now.

    That play in of itself was a really good play by the linebacker. He had his hips showing that he was going to break on Supernaw's out route, baiting Mariota into throwing the post to Delanie where it was an easy pick.

    My complaint is the entire scheme. We were not effective in establishing the run, so play action is not going to work. The LB was able to bait Mariota into making that throw because he didn't bite on the run at all, got depth, and made Mariota make the mistake. That's a systemic issue where they owned us, we didn't make adjustments, and they were able to control us. That's why I'm so irritated at this system.

    When it works, we're able to bully other teams into submission and grind out wins. When it doesn't, our coaches are too inept to evaluate the defense, make adjustments in terms of calls and formations, and then we end up with terrible play calls that put the QB in terrible situations where he's forced to make impossible throws into coverage's that are waiting on it.
