Offensive Weapons

If those weapons have less than 2 seconds to get open then we could have 90 weapons on the field and it'd be irrelevant

OL holds everyone else back

 

@TitanMark Your response didn’t post.

 

Smith had 448. His 8 TDs were easily better than 3.
he still had the same issues we talk about with Chig already, why don’t they use him more?

as far as your projection to the future, just like Smith, I believe Chig has the talent to produce more. Unfortunately, just like Smith, he’s in an offense that hasn’t really used a TE for real production since DW left.

homerism is when you don’t see any flaw or when you’ll argue any point that could be considered a negative towards the team. You argue this pretty consistently, I don’t think any posters would defend your case on that.
I really don’t mind, it’s just that you’re a homer.

Without being a homer, please argue the other points like Burks is better than Britt to this point.
Or even the original question, has there ever been a deeper offensive roster of weapons than this 2023 offense?

 

These playmakers need to start making plays consistently before we can call them playmakers.

Hopkins is off to a nice start compared to other veteran backs the Titans have signed. Optimistic about that if he can stay healthy.

I don't know what it is about Burks, but he just doesn't look like he'll ever be the superstar AJ Brown replacement that he's supposed to be. I think he can be a solid WR but so far expectations seem way higher than his actual play to me.

Chig needs to be more involved. Seems the Titans haven't really used TE's consistently since Delanie Walker.

Henry, well we know what he can do. Obviously Kelly is getting away from the run,run,run philosophy, but he shouldn't forget Henry is still the best back in the league.

Spears has been impressive so far. Above expectations in my opinion. We'll see how much of a weapon he can be throughout the season.

 

hopefully T17 survives till its jelled

 

First. I agreed with you. We have had deeper offensive units. Maybe I wasn’t clear.

Chig Vs Smith…. Oh the TDs. Ok. I see your point. Please see mine. His rookie season was waaaaaay better. It took Smith 4 seasons to get to Chigs year one use.

Britt/Burks I see your point. To this point Britt was better, by a lot stat wise. I’m not ready to judge Burks based just on last season.

I’m a fan of my team. I’m not a pro sports analyst or scout as some of you act as though you are. But I don’t just argue for my team. Have you missed my attacks on T17? I’m just not going to attack a new player or compare brand new things to the old until they have a chance to succeed.

 

I’m a homer sometimes too. It comes with the territory and sometimes to a fault with the acceptance of some mediocre players. S**ting on THill doesn’t mean you’re not a homer in itself and there’s nothing wrong with opinions, yours are just the most optimistic at pretty much all times.

And we’re saying Chig and Smith are almost the same production.
Chig 2022 - 32-450-3
Smith 2020 - 41-448-8

keep in mind that 4 year waiting period includes a rookie year with DW still as the star TE, a partial 2nd year with DW starting then hurt, then dealing with Blaine Gabbert for part of the season. His 3rd year was improved- 35-439-3.

even with that, it’s not like Chig put up some monster production season that says he’s anything special because his rookie numbers were what they were. He’s just appx equal to what J Smith was. Hope to see more.

And I did miss that you were agreeing on the roster depth point.

 

Fair. But remember what Chig had at OC and QB last season. Smith at least had real good THill and Art.

 

85 was one of the more productive players on a per snap basis... crazy

 

Took the words right out of my mouth.

Agree with everything said here.

Spears literally looks like he's 19 years old. But that dude can absolutely ball. I've been so impressed with him. His vision and speed is off the charts. Glad he's on our team.
