I'm reading comments saying two of the best QBs in the NFL are nobody.
Lamar Jackson threw 36 TDs against Miami, Arizona, the Jets, Clevelandx2, Cincyx2, Pittsburghx2, et al.

We did the same thing to them in week 3 that Tennessee did on Saturday- get up on them and force them to throw. Jackson started heaving ducks and jump balls. And they lost.

That offense is predicated on Derrick Henry. Period. Tannehill has a completion percentage of almost 76% and a passer rating of 143 when throwing out of play action, which he does over a quarter of the time. If you can take that away by jumping out to a big lead Tannehill will still be decent but not unstoppable.

I agree.... we have to get them off the field on 3rd/4th down. Then score the TD. I wonder if we see a lot of 46 defense in this game? I wonder about playing a 5 down lineman set to confuse the blocking versus a 4 man line .

Is Tannehill mobile?

Forgot about that and they only sacked Mahomes twice.

That game was also the only game that Hill had over 100 yds receiving with 157 and I forgot about the fact he got hurt in the 2nd quarter IIRC and missed the next 3 weeks.

The Titans have won with their QB throwing for a combined 150 yards in two games.

Over my life, I've seen the chiefs have great running games. I know how that works in the playoffs when you get behind.

There's a reason he got dumped by Miami......he is basically at best Alex Smith. If you get ahead of them and take them out of their game he is going to struggle.

We need the Bellicheck scheme, Take away their best player. Make someone else beat you.

We need to blitz every play. Fill running lanes. 8 men in the box, Go man on man outside. Force Tannehill to beat us throwing the ball. Seems pretty simple plan to me. Execution could trip up the plan but how else would you scheme it?

Also, take the ball if you win the coin flip. Try to get up early and force them out of running the ball the catch up.

Reid said he designed some plays for use against the Patriots, right? Now's as good a time as any to break those bad boys out.

"counteracting some of the comments being made . . ." is essentially trying to develop an argument. A case. But that's semantics . . .


I wouldn't describe Tannehill as a "nobody." I think it's more accurate to describe him as "limited." He doesn't seem to possess elite arm strength or talent. He pre-snap reads are only correct about half the time. He often doesn't find the open receiver when blitzed/pressured.

But he's tough, mobile, a tough tackle, and isn't scared to pull the trigger in any moment. Whoever is running the TEN offense seems to be getting about as much efficiency out of Tannehill as he can, but as we saw in the Patriots game, put him consistently in 3rd-and-long situations, and Tannehill has trouble converting for 1st downs. Part of that might've been the lack of elite weapons available, or maybe inconsistent play-calling, or even variable play design quality. Or maybe a combination of all of the above.

Regardless, Tannehill had a lot of trouble converting 3rd downs with his arm against the Patriots. And some trouble again against the Ravens, if we can use the "50% of possessions resulting in a score" statistic as a ruler.

Lamar has some of the same limitation issues as a passer. He doesn't possess elite level accuracy. His pre-snap reads are driven entirely on what his pre-snap motion tells him. And he's wrong often. He doesn't have elite talent at receiver. He doesn't have much ability to manipulate defenses in-play with either his eyes or his body yet. And he doesn't throw with very much anticipation. Consequently, GR has designed a passing attack that is predicated on getting to 3rd and short, using motion to overload one side, and short throws on one read designs.

Force him to sit in the pocket and read a defense and he has trouble. At least right now.

Overall, I think that Tannehill is a better, or more well-rounded QB than Lamar, but that's obvious; Tannehill has more than a decade more experience in the NFl to work with.

You just play them the way the Patriots did yes Henry got his but they scored 14 points on offense, they do that here and they lose.

He played WR in college, IIRC. He can run and knows how to be a little shifty.

I personally thought Titans might lose until they prevented the 2pt conversion. I can see the point that QBs and coaches play different based on circumstances. I watched Vince Young comeback against Cardinals and Giants. Down 21 in 4th. Going 99 yards in 2 minutes. McNair a yard short to Dyson in Super Bowl. Titans music City miracle. I'm more just reminiscing now
