    What has he done for that even to cross your mind?

    He has gone for it on 4th down where Fisher would not have on many occasions, he has brought in great FA's and great coaches (jefferson, croom and williams). He seems like a stand up guy. He is also a HOF player, which earns players respect.

    You called me spineless for hating on jake! Don't quit on your boy now hell be back next season for 3-4 games where he's good for a quarter or two! Lets bring on someone new or legitimate at least. Clearly Fitzpatrick thinks he's Vick

    We titans fan do love drawing battle lines on our favorite players don't we?

    Lol Vince CJ, those are really only two I can think of.

    Everyone else the past 5 years has been pretty forgettable sadly.

    Are there any megatrons in this draft that could fall to us? Lol

    Perhaps more creative dump offs and screens. That one screen by Wright where he ran out then quickly came back into the line for the screen was really nice.... It was like the first 'creative' screen I've seen from our team...

    Also, CJ has had some really nice screen passes (think designed inside screens where the OL kinda leave the DL to run to the QB, not dump off screens), but they often get called back b/c receivers can't learn to NOT F'IN BLOCK IN THE BACK. Another problem is that we barely call those creative plays...

    If you ask me, its really on the QB. Perhaps if Lock grew some and took some shots DOWNFIELD AND ACTUALLY HIT SOME, you know, beyond 10 yards, then YES, there would also definitely be more space. QBs get crazy dollar contracts for a reason, they completely change your team. People say there isn't talent on this team, but you insert an A-level QB now, and all of a sudden EVERYONE'S JOB IS SAFE AND BOTH OUR O AND D LOOK GOOD...

    Again, there is much blame to go around. CJ should get some (not as much as everyone is giving him though), Dowell should get some too, Munch off course, but in the end, its back to Jake. I thought Dowell was holding Jake back. Early on Jake was making plays and it looked like he could do more. But really, I'm starting to think those games were flukes...

    There's one flaw in that thought process; you're relying on Chris Johnson to catch the ball on the move. He can barely catch standing still.

    No Megatrons, but Sammy Watkins is legit.

    Got to have a QB to throw the ball to Watkins though.

    Murray in the second

    He could get it done with Wright, Washinton, Williams, Hunter, Watkins, and Walker. Thats exactly what you want him to come into.
