are we rooting for the titans right now? i mean we got them in the playoffs by beating pitt. they knocked out the pats in foxborough, they took down the league MVP in baltimore. they are the 6 seed with tannehill at QB, an ex pats LBer as a head coach and really are the team that doesn't belong. reminds me a lot of us during the rex/sanchez years. being a jets fan who are always underdogs, it's nice to see the underdogs win.
I am rooting for anyone that doesn't have Rodgers playing for them...... wouldn't mind seeing ole Andy win one..... Titans wouldn't bother me either as Henry has earned some recognition..... and Jimmy G would be a kick in the teeth to Belecheat...
Only problem in the Titans going all the way would be in people wondering why a SB winning QB was so awful at his last place of employment where he had the help of a QB 'Guru'.
Because he didn't have Henry to carry him. The Tannehill hype is getting kinda old, he played good when he wasn't injured in miami. Look at stats, watch games.... he wasn't "awful" he was hurt...
I'm going for San Francisco. I want N.E fans and Belichick and Brady to see Jimmy G win a super bowl at the same time as Brady leaves New England for another team; EPIC. And clueless one's. Stop pretending as if Tanny is lighting it up (as a shot @ Gase) like a Jimmy G, Patrick Mahomes or Aaron Rodgers etc because he's not. It's all about Tennessee's run game with Henry behind a talented O-Line and a fast/hard hitting Defense. Tanny was a good Quarterback in Miami surrounded by a shitty team (due to Miami's front office since Marino, not because of Gase lol) and now he's a little better as a game manager (with Tennessee) due to experience, knowledge and more importantly; finally 100% healthy. But he's not some QB who just broke out into an All-Pro gun slinger "once escaping Gase", wrong; it's because he escaped Miami. And he's still just a game manager enjoying a career year and 99.9% sure he shits the bed the next coming years once losing to K.C (because he's not Mahomes and never was and never will be). Oh yea. Tanny & Tennessee had a cakewalk cupcake schedule this year.
He did not sign another 2 year deal with N.E. His wife just had all of her stuff cleared out of Gillette Stadium and they just moved into another home. Brady just played his last game a Patriot and his last pass; a pick 6. He's a free agent and can not be tagged - he's leaving for another team.
i mean he threw for less then 200 yards total in 2 games. they are winning with ball control, run game, and defense. tannehill is about as important to that team as sanchez was for the jets in 2009/2010
I have a friend who keeps pointing this out to me every game the Titans win. When I checked, Tannehill was 7 of 14 last week. He's playing well, but it's not as if it's lights out. I like the way they're running the offense, but I don't see a Gase indictment.
Honestly, as a devout Pats hater, Mike Vrabel was always on the short list of Pats I didn't hate. It's a pretty short list: Vrabel, Mike Haynes, Tippet, Hannah, Curtis Martin, and Klecko's kid.
My own take on Tannehill is he's a good QB in that he won't win or lose you games but will keep your team ticking along and let your gamebreakers (whether that's Henry or Ajayi) decide the result. My Problem with Gase is that I think he's pretty much the same in that he's a 7-9 to 9-7 guy and doesn't bring your team on or develop players to be any more then they are. However he's here for the next 2 to 3 years with a big voice in roster construction so hopefully we can find a couple of guys that can perform to All-Pro level.
You're expecting another two or three years while moldering in .500 territory? May god have mercy on our souls.
If Tannehill were on the Jets and playing like he is on the Titans, you'd be comparing him to the second coming of Peyton Montana.
Wrong. He's completed a whopping 15 passes during Tennessee's two playoff wins (and barely over 50% completion percentage lol). In other words Tennessee is making sure to keep the ball out of his hands while letting Henry win the games and run the ball 64 times for almost 400 yards. You're wrong again.
