This explains a lot about your lack of understanding g what’s going on. You absolutely can read a defense before the ball is hiked. It’s preferred actually but if he could read a defense afterwards, he probably be better than he is.


While I agree we don’t really have the line to go 5 wide, you can still read a blitz ahead and make a quick route throw.



The QB is the one standing with the ball looking for open WRs. You should never expect sacks, rushed passes or accuracy problems. You can anticipate some issues but that’s what you’re looking for in a QB, guys that can handle the blitzes, make accurate throws, and avoid taking sacks. Mariota fails at all 3.

Why are you responding to it

Well it's not his job. The OC is fully in control of each and every play. Even changing the play at the line of scrimmage. How? The QB has an ear piece. Any and all changes are made by the OC, that's his job. So you're blaming Mariota for bad reads? Mmnnn. I think you're not the only one.

Communications get turned off at 15 seconds on the play clock. Not many teams snapping the ball before then. Defenses know this all the same. Any major changes to the look they are giving is going to happen within those 15 seconds removing the OC help factor of “reading the defense” or making a change on the play.

When it matters most- the QB has to be able to decipher the defense alone, and make the required adjustments in protections and or play change.

1. What you see out there is the product of your OC, ok? Lol That's the little secret that you need to pick up on. QBs resemble their play callers. Mariota is simply running the plays that he's given. The OC is seeing the field and Mariota has an ear piece. The formation, the blocking, the routes are designed plays. It is the OC's job to read defensive formations. The communication between OC to QB cuts off 15 seconds before the snap which gives the OC a visual of how the defense is set and he calls in the play prior to being cut off. Unless major adjustments by the defense occurs within 15 seconds of the playclock expiring there really is no reason to change the play.

Mariota is a better play caller anyway but it is impossible to really know how many times he has changed the play. All you can go on is the defensive read by the OC in determining what the play will be.

We see with Tannehill the same dreary, dreadful crud. The INT, the sacks, the incomplete passes, limited field of vision due to time restraints, the inability to sustain a drive, the failed 4th down conversion, lack of points, resorting to field goals and the inability to win convincingly. It's the same yucky performance we've been seeing. Do you see me blaming Tannehill like you blame Mariota? No, because I understand fully what's happening.

Do you honestly believe, feel, think that the OC has nothing to do with Mariota's inefficiency? My goodness, he and Vrabel are greenhorns for crying out loud. The reason Mariota looks like a high school QB who needs developement is because of Laurel & Hardy's inexperience. It has always been the case with the Titans ever since Mariota joined the team. You're seeing it play out on the field. Who put whip cream and a cherry on their heads and crowned them Mr Belichick and Mr. McDaniels? Have either Vrabel or Smith coached one single high school or college football game in their lives? It shows! What other personnel in this organization have skipped steps and are wearing shoes too big for their feet? I'm frustrated with the Titans and urge them to trade Mariota before the deadline. I cannot stand another game of this. However as long as Mariota, a Heisman winner and any other award you can think of is here, we need to stand beside him and not let those who are wet behind the ears strut on the sideline and ruffle his feathers.

Thanks for posting that nonsensical 13 year old fan girl rant twice, so I could give it b.s. Rating twice.

First off, the Falcon defense is ranked 27th, and the Chargers is 11th.

Mariota vs 27th ranked D:
18/27, 227 yards 66.6% 3 TDs

Tannehill vs 11th ranked D:
23/29, 312 yards 79.1% 2 TDs 1INT

I'm no math whiz, but I think you're just talking out your @ss

Mariota did all of that in the first half
 
Mariota sucks......Train wreck of a QB. Anybody with eyeballs can see it. His stats back it as well.
 
Mariota could change the play more to his liking if he had two HBs and a FB in the backfield and two TEs on the line of scrimmage. I hope Amy is listening. Give the fans confidence in your offense's ability to sustain drives. Pleeease????

Tell me about all the changes a QB can make to a designed play when you have four or five receivers on the line of scrimmage? You can pretty much rule out ALL running plays, not gonna happen. It's an advertised pass and the QB and OL are at an immediate disadvantage. Oh no, where's the grease gun, right?

Here comes the blitz! The onslaught! Try to throw off your right foot being off balance to your left, my man. Try to throw off your left foot being off balance to your right, fool. Now try to throw with your left hand in the face mask of a helmet with an arm up your crxtch, my good fello. Try to find an open target while running for your life and falling back off your right ankle, lol guy. Oh you better not bloop one out there, hog. Oh you better not let big bubba sack you, tromper room. Oh you better not throw an interception, slick jack. Oh you better not get hit too hard that you fumble the ball, bruise boo. Oh you better keep that drive alive, bran flake. Sounds like the DEVIL because it is the DEVIL! Mariota's in hxll!

A four or five receiver set is no doubt a laughable offensive formation if there ever was one. Yeah and no doubt Mariota is paid to be some sort of idiot magician in a circus act.

The defense is saying, it's a pass! It's a pass! Hooray, hooray! DBs are swarming all over the field rendering many receivers out of the play, no one is open. Why don't you try to force something, Marcus? Why don't you up the number of your INTs, MM? Why not up your incompletion pct and that wonderful pct in not finding a needle in a haystack, M&M? Why don't you lower your QB rating, Mary? Why don't you make yourself a 2nd string QB? Why don't you mess up any chance of signing a long term contract? Better yet, why don't you sit in free agency for a decade with no takers? You're in the big leagues now, you b in da NFL going up against drr best. Why aren't you performing there draft pick?

With a suitable offensive scheme Mariota would have performed exceptionally well because he is no doubt a franchise QB. He scored TDs, had big passing/rushing yards in college and should be doing that here. Unless he's shooting up with heroin I doubt very much that he is regressing.

So Amy, are you listening or did you sell out?

JFC man... You need help.
 
I read an article that stated that the only team that might be willing to trade for Mariota is the Bears. Can we be so lucky?
 
520 said:. No. Not even his old college coach wants him

Titans had winning record under Mariota in 2016, 2017 and 2018. You don't bench a guy like that, lol. Maybe if he goes 7 games below ,500 you might give him a week off. What? At just 1 game below 500 and then announce someone else your starting QB? Especially someone with a track record of losing seasons, who would do that? What did Mariota do to deserve this, hang Vrabel's jock strap up on the goal post? I hope Vrabel doesn't drag Mariota back out there to try and save the season and his job because Mariota might just do it.

Which brings me to my 2nd point. I remember as a kid getting all excited about offensive formations so I decided to jot down the main theme of each team. I started with the Houston Oilers. Right off the bat, I scratched my scalp and thought to myself, there's no HBs. I soon realized they were the only team in the NFL that had that style of offense. I remember their record was among the worst of any team. I thought about that the other day and I had to chuckle. This is the Houston Oilers! Of all the teams out there how could Mariota have ended up in a shoot from the hip, ask questions later offense like this? It's hilariously funny because Mariota is not that type of QB. OMG still laughing.

You see, the Oilers became the Titans but one thing did not change and that is their style of offense. This revelation changes everything. With Tannehill though, it does have its advantages.

My third thought is the Titans need to do the right thing and trade Mariota. Don't keep him as a backup in this Oiler offensive scheme. Where's Gabbert when you need him?
