I look at it this way. Mary under center gets us nowhere. At best a wild card berth and a playoff trouncing.

Maybe tannehill gets us more. Maybe he doesn't. Whatever. I'll take the bag with a question mark on it over the flaming bag of dog poo at this point.

And if tannehill comes in flinging picks all over the place, so be it. Sets us up better to draft a real qb.
It’d be different if Tannehill was a rook but he isn’t . He was let go for a reason . Sure he’s a solid back up but it’s more of an emphasis to the organization to truly give Marcus a shot . At this point he’s 1-1 with 4 TD’s and 0 picks . This last game was sucky but he deserves a chance to turn it around. Me as a fan , if he bombs vs. Jags I wouldn’t mind trying Tannehill but the organization is playing this a bit more carefully , they have to.

Whatever. This season is a waste of time anyway. Just like the last 15 or more.

Give him a shot. Gimmie a break. He's emptied the clip and never hit at this point.
 
All Mariota stats tell me is that he will not get franchise type money. It's going to be a 3 year deal something similar to brisset. This gives us a chance to keep players like Logan and other key players.

We're more likely to have Tannehill starting next year than Mariota
 
Was it though? Second game in a new offense( yes Arthur has been here, but it still a new offense) and with a makeshift line that was a sieve at times.

Was this really THE game to prove it?

Here is my thing. After 3 winning seasons, I don’t want to go back. I don’t want to go back to the QB hell of searching for the one that can do it. I believe Mariota can be the QB. I just hope he fully proves it.

Yes , In my honest opinion this was the game for this team (not just that qb) to prove that they indeed are taking the next step from "good" to "great".
This game was the home opener, retiring the numbers of 2 Titans legends , aginst the team that they are scared to beat. This was more then just the "second" game of the season. This was a "Prove" it game ... and in a way they did.
 
First of all, I’ll always be a titans fan. Under no circumstance will that waver. Championships are the goal. Knowing what I know now, I would of fought even harder against Mary.

Just in case anyone forgets. Can’t even remember myself. Bye marylecia, and bye @XO.
 
Here is something I found quite interesting while watching Pat Mahome's dropping bombs in the 2nd Quarter against the Raiders.

Remove Yards After Catch from the stat line and Mariota has thrown for 160 yards over 2 games.

Sounds awful to me, but puts him firmly in the middle of the pack with the lacks of Cousins, Jimmy G, Jay Brisket etc.

If he looked like a capable QB, this stats convo wouldn’t ever come up. Unfortunately dude still looks like the same crappy QB from the last couple years. No stats are changing that.

So I would like to say that I am wrong about Marcus Mariota. Usually I overreact and today when I calmed down I took an unbiased look at his stats through two games and realized that maybe he isn't the issue.

Can you take a moment to look at Mariota's stats through 2 games: 402 yards, 4 TDs, 0 INTs, 63.5% completion percentage, 112.5 rating

Kicking myself. My goodness I'm stunned. You have to be able to look at these things without emotions. Did I miss this? I and others like @SawdustMan and @8and8 are so completely wrong about everything Mariota related.

Can I use this thread to have an unbiased look at Mariota's numbers each week as we move through the season and towards an eventual decision about his future in Tennessee.

Kindly do not flame my thread or post childish memes. Very true also can everyone here please stop and give a little bit of credit to @VondyP and @Thaddeus43 for being some of the only people not just completely overreacting. On top of that. Next @ICBW who was just a breath of fresh air after the game today with his reasonable and realistic takes on Mariota and this team. Don't give up on the haters though.

You all, I hope you all have a great night and I can't wait until Thursday when we will destroy the tarp kittens! Please!
Well said I have been looking at all these so called fans bashing him after one loss. Can't wait til Thursday when we win and they are back on the bandwagon.
 
3/20 third down.

The only reason we bear Cleveland is because they gave us so many penalties.

400 yards in two games is poor. Especially since a 75 yard screen is. A good chunk of it.

No pics? Sure. He never takes any chances at all.

Marcus is dry white toast. Not ever gonna get it done. Move on.
We will see if you have that same energy by mid season
 
My thread can also be used to discuss how we can build this team to make Mary more successful here. Also maybe contract talks. Really though it's about being realistic as fans. You have to not get your emotions involved.

Since the game ended it really helped me to just chill and look at the numbers. Usually I never do this but today felt different. Could I be missing something? Kind obvious that I and many others were. Soon win the wins happen it will get easier to see Mary is our guy.

Again, I'm sorry. Seriously love this team. Sucks that we have had so much negativity.
Nothing wrong with what you are saying. All we need to do is get all our wrs involved in the game. Humphreys has not done anything. I don't know if it's separation or what. Lewis is on my list of players we should trade. O line will be fine when Lewan and the others come back hopefully. Adoree has to play better as well other than that we will beat the Jags and Bills
