    Absolutely. All the issues he has had since college. No improvement on all the problems he needed to improve upon to be an NFL starting qb.

    No pocket awareness. Can't read defenses. Cant pick up the blitz. Cant adjust to routes. Inaccurate. Inconsistent. etc. etc.

    Just amazing that there are still people so lost that they think he is a good qb.

    Here's the thing for me...

    Mariota lacks the awareness needed to be a franchise QB. He'll flash potential but wastes too many plays each game with poor decisions a 5th-year QB should be past. Poor reads. Locking on his target. Inconsistent accuracy due to poor mechanics.

    By year five, franchise QBs have all the above behind them. He should be honing his game.—getting better in reading defenses and looking off DBs with his eyes.

    At this point, I think he's lost confidence. Let's hope he can find some answers but I don't have much faith he will. And I think he'll play well enough to keep the starting job barring an injury.

    If he stays healthy, he's going to have 3-4 solids games. 3-4 stinkers and the rest mediocre game the Titans might win if the running game/defense overshadows his play.

    MM sucks. Any fans that still support him need to have their collective heads examined.

    Wait so after one close loss to a division opponent we have people saying we should sell the team for picks and rebuild??

    Some people are such prisoners of the moment on here.

    I've been watching some of the young QBs in the league. Mariota looks like he has absolutely no talent in his body. Things are set up for mobile QBs to be tough to defend, but he has no idea what he's doing.

    It's probably the same nonsense and inconsistency this team continues to put out on the field every other week that has fans so frustrated. I have zero confidence this team and coaching staff can string together several wins. As much as I despise Reich, he so outcoached Vrabel yesterday, that last drive was an utter embarrassment top to bottom.

    Yes I understand where the frustration is coming from but if you look at things objectively it's just irrational to have that thought in Week 2.

    Being consistent in the NFL is one of the hardest things to do in football. That's why good teams fade every year. That's why it's incredibly hard to do what the Pats are doing.

    Think about it like this. If you had a job and you got one day a week to go show that you can do your job how consistent would you be? One day. It doesn't matter what profession you are in - everyone is going to have off days. God forbid that it happens on the ONE day that these guys get to show their skills.

    Now don't get me wrong Vrabel was really bad yesterday. This was easily his worst coached game of his short time here. Let's see how he responds.

    FFS the Patriots lost to the Jaguars in week 2 last year and then followed that up with a loss to the Lions. They went on to win the super bowl as we all know. This kinda stuff happens to every team, every year. Its how you respond that tells you the type of team you have.

    The Titans are stuck in neutral. NFL teams usually progress and make improvements or they regress each year. Even if they respond Thursday, then suck the following week. It's the same inconsistency over and over that's starting to wear thin.

    I think it’s too early to forfeit the rest of the season but it’s not too early to call it a career for Mariota. Tannehill would have won that game yesterday, no doubt.

    On top of still being so inaccurate, Marcus holds on to the ball too long and is OBLIVIOUS to the pressure coming his way. My biggest knock on him was on full display. 3rd down comes around and instead of doing whatever it takes to get the 1st down he wilts and nonchalantly heads for the sidelines. He’s not mad he’s not disappointed he’s not even the slightest bit upset. F*** that! Yeah he’s a nice guy and says all the pc things but dude just doesn’t have any killer instinct. I’m over him, bring on #17!
