Preseason Impressions

August 31st, 2009 by Rogersworthe | 3 Comments | Filed in Tennessee Titans

So we have had 3 1/2 games of preseason football to date, with one more left at Green Bay. The game against Cleveland brought some clarification to some issues we have had in previous games. However, it’s still preseason, the Detroit Lions went 4-0 in preseason last year, so all of these need to be taken with a grain of salt. But here are my thoughts so far on our preseason play:

  • Our offense is going to be good: Even when the 1st team offense struggled in the Tampa Bay and Dallas Cowboys game, you could see it forming. Justin Gage is on a new level, and Nate Washington adds a deep threat dimension that is very real and defenses fear it. This is going to open up the middle of the field for the deepest Tight End position in the league. Also, Kenny Britt as the #3 receiver is perfect for him and he will fill the role well. I am impressed with our offense. Which we will need this year because
  • Our defense will be good, but not dominant: The Defensive line will have its moments, and Jason Jones may add A LOT of what I feel is missing (which is why these should be taken with a grain of salt), but I don’t think we will dominate on the Line like in past years. Nobody commands a double team, which gives opposing offenses some flexibility in how to use their line in pass protection. Also, the more I see our non-pro bowlers in the secondary play, the worse I feel. Teams obviously see Faggins as a HUGE liability and are going right after him (he did get cut from HOUSTON for goodness sake). Fuller is good, but not as good as I was hoping he would be. And Mouton is injured and not getting any reps after showing some promise. The good thing is Tulloch looks like he is taking a step up and Fowler is no slouch as a fill-in/back up.
  • Vince Young ain’t turning the proverbial corner, so shut the fuck up about it: He sucks. He sucks trying to run. He sucks at passing. He sucks at reading defenses. He sucks at professional football. He is Tommy Frazier. The Tennessean and commenters everywhere are saying things like “Well he looked GREAT after throwing that interception for a touchdown!!! It’s important for a Quarterback to recover after errors like that!” IT’S IMPORTANT NOT TO HAVE ERRORS LIKE THAT!!!!!!!!!! GET A BRAIN!!!! It’s year 4 (I kept thinking 3 for some reason earlier today on MCM) and we are trying to say things like “Well, he finally is going through his progressions!” Big. Fat. FAIL. Last night he cost us 10 to 14 points (the argument can be made that if he throws the ball away on the play he made the goalline fumble that Fisher gets the kicking team out there). 10 to 14 points is the game. You cannot give NFL teams 10 to 14 points and expect to win. PERIOD. Kerry Collins doesn’t do that. He doesn’t bring much to the table, but he doesn’t GIVE the other team 10 to 14 points, and that’s why he is the starter. Vince isn’t gonna turn it around. It’s year 4, and he looks like a rookie.
    Look, he got cursed in '08, he isn't going to recover. He sucks. He sucks BAD. Let it go.

    Look, he got cursed in '08, he isn't going to recover. He sucks. He sucks BAD. Let it go.

Here is the Twitter Live Blog Transcript. Loved the way Collins looked. Vince once again came up short. Sigh… Same old, same old. Don’t forget to follow us on Twitter.

6:33:05 PM: Eddie George is back!! And who cares that Chris Johnson does not have good stats in the preseason?!?! Really? This is an issue?

6:35:43 PM: If you Booze It, You Lose It

6:36:03 PM: WKRN once again is trying to prove that for sideline reporters, Sex doesn’t sell

6:38:15 PM: This WKRN feed feels like I am watching football in 1994. Horrible quality.

6:39:06 PM: Sacked….

6:40:12 PM: Brady Quinn just makes me ache for MyoPlex

6:40:50 PM: Wow. All that fancy motion really worked.

6:42:48 PM: “Hey, we’re the Cleveland Browns. We start a Runningback who left his prime 12 years ago.”

6:43:40 PM: Chop Block from Cleveland? NO WAY!!!!

6:46:34 PM: The Browns didn’t bite on that play action

6:47:23 PM: Jared Cook! I love this guy. He is awesome. True love, really. (more…)

Live Twitter Blog: Titans vs. Buccaneers Preseason Game #2

August 15th, 2009 by Rogersworthe | 63 Comments | Filed in Live Twitter Blog

So I live tweeted the first half of the Bucs game. Needless to say, we did NOT look good. Not fun to see Collins play so badly, followed by more Vince Young boneheadedness. However, a silver lining was Britt and Cook looking quite good. Read my live thoughts below and leave a comment with your impressions from the game as well.

7:03:41 PM: It’s too bad Eddie George doesn’t get any national jobs. he’s pretty good.

7:08:45 PM: Our Defensive Line is really talented. i still question if it can be as consistently dominant without Haynesworth. We shall see.

7:09:03 PM: I should also mention, I am not happy this game is not in HD

7:11:15 PM: BO SCAIFE… WHAT IS UP!!!! Man our Offensive line looked GOOD on that play

7:12:42 PM: I won’t lie… i really, really like these announcers. Much better than the guys who make a lot more money than them

7:13:29 PM: Yikes… that was ugly. Ronde came right off that corner.

7:14:30 PM: Shit… that was not good. I don’t really know why he underthrew that so badly. Should’ve chucked it out of bounds.

7:15:29 PM: Local Broadcast? Also local commercials. man these are lame.

7:18:11 PM: You could make the argument that Winslow is underrated or overrated and you’d be right.

7:20:09 PM: Yeah that;s a completion and no fumble

7:21:23 PM: Hochuli is the ref. I think he is actually pretty good

7:23:09 PM: What is this? The Tight Ends are ruining us! IT’S THE BUCS!!!

7:23:45 PM: Oh i was hoping Finnegan was gonna get a chance to light McCown up

7:24:35 PM: 4 yard loss baby. Good job, Fowler.

7:25:03 PM: OH MAN!! Our Linebackers are flying in on the running game.

7:26:28 PM: Finnegan!!! YEAH!!! What a hit!

7:27:15 PM: What a nice throw! Washington… so close. Gotta have that for $27 million. Good thing it’s only preseason.

7:32:38 PM: Offense looks good but isn’t finishing drives… Heard this story before….

7:36:41 PM: TOUCHDOWN!!! AH shit… facemasking penalty… CRAP

7:39:57 PM: Our Defensive Line is getting to McCown with a different guy on every play. Kearse is looking good. Hell, everyone is.

7:41:17 PM: I wanna see Mouton get a solid chance at returning and see what he can do. (more…)

Opponent Bashing Saturday: The Buffalo Bills

August 8th, 2009 by Spizz | No Comments | Filed in Opponent Bashing

The pre-season is here! Time for some good old fashioned trash talk. And we couldn’t have picked an easier target for our inaugural and hopefully weekly bashing of the Titans’ opponent.

  • Buffalo’s a great town—if you like your crack whores frozen. And where else in the U.S. is it socially acceptable to walk around with a burning torch made from a roll of toilet paper soaked in gasoline? (It serves to thaw the epidermis and simultaneously scare away the homeless.)
  • Buffalo's new mayor is also kind of a jerk.

  • The Buffalo Bills have hands down the corniest name of any NFL team, and possibly any major professional sports team. A lame pun about the asshole who single-handedly drove the city’s namesake to near extinction? Sounds good to me!
  • The T.O. Show. ‘Nuff said.
  • Buffalo also shares a third of the blame for allowing Patriots to become the massive douche entity that they currently are, by conspiring with the Jets and the Dolphins to allow the Brady-Belichick express to steamroll the AFC East every year. Thanks guys, we appreciate it.
