    No, he said the receivers MISSED - that is what I was replying to. I agree with you 100%.

    I think he owns a couple of these losses this year. Something I didn't think I would be saying before the season started. The team needs him to grow up and improve. So they can start moving forward. The question is he the one responsible for his short comings or is it the system they have asked him to run.

    I think he's a better player than he has performed. He just needs a lil help by an organization who put their faith in him a year ago to get him there. And Amy prob should quit making unilateral decisions.

    Agree. Williamson is way overrated.

    I posted an article about how they are changing him completely to work under center. At this point it's not working. We look awful even when moving the ball. There is no rhythm to what we do. He spends 10 seconds checking off into who knows what and it gains two yards. I wish he would check out of 8 in the box and hit a deep one. We have no TE screens, WR screens, short throws to flankers, slants to KW or even an option read today. Most vanilla offense I have ever seen with a QB supposedly ready to run and gun. I am at a loss to even try to figure out what we are trying to accomplish.

    You know what I find remarkable? Up until the 2015 draft, the most important conversation between Winston and Mariflota, was that physically they were very close, but that Mariflota really had a huge advantage between the ears and his decision making.

    Well, looking at it now, Winston clearly has elite arm talent, ability to use his legs, and the decision making gap has been non-existent and about even. That's extremely disappointing that Mariflota is equal to CrabLegs upstairs.

    I won't even get into who I feel is the better leader.

    Win and lose as a team indeed.

    And I wouldn't say all of them were heavily covered, there were some that were covered, but as an NFL receiver you HAVE to catch some passes when you're covered. You won't be open all the time, especially on this team. Tajae and Rishard both had balls in the hand and chest that they just let get batted, fasano had a first down if he attacked it but he just stayed there and let the LB beat him to the ball. But a lot of the calls today were head scratching. We ran the ball well, but not frequently enough, and sometimes at the wrong time. Everything was like a last minute throw together and it was frantic.

    Not true, they said Jamie's was way more NFL ready and that Mariota needed 2 years. This is his 2nd season.

    Miracle? C'mon. Far from perfect passes but even further from "miracle".

    Wright was a non-factor today. I saw little separation out of any Titans WR. If you were at the game today, it was an obvious contrast to what the Colts WRs were getting.

    Played decent on a terrible defense his rookie year. I guess there's a reason he was recruited by Kentucky.

    He still has him beat in between the ears.
