I've had some rough ones this week. Had a +1800 parlay that only needed Kamara to get 8 more yards to hit

there's nothing for me to say. I don't like him, won't ever cheer for him, and still fine that I'm no longer a Titans fan. Don't care if he wins the Super Bowl MVP. Haven't watched a game of his all year, and don't plan to start just because he did well in the 2 quarter of a game.

Cope. Glad you aren’t a fan

 

[BigOrange15]

Cope. You’ll be alright

I don't care if my player is a douchebag if he wins. Know what's easy as hell to root for? Winning.

i have an issue with a lot of local youth sports….. Refs are the worse bc they are usually tight with one side or the other…. One time we had to get officials banned from reffing my daughter’s basketball team bc they were so one sided. We lost to another team 16-14 in elementary school basketball with those refs…. In the playoffs…. we beat them 36-12 without those refs.

i also have a huge issue with local rec ball leagues circumventing rules to allow certain coaches to build dominant teams. I also hate school teams that choose the buddy system when choosing players over trying to be the best team possible.

I have an issue with refs at the college and pro level… I just don’t think every call is controversial and it dilutes when there are real issues if we complain about everything. Refs are calling the game in full speed action….. Fans are complaining based off super alow
motion video and still shot pictures.

100% agree with this. I played in a rec league once where the coaches refused games they're teams weren't playing in. When it came time for the playoffs there was a ton of bias when said coaches needed a certain team to lose.

Gotta give Vrabel some credit...even in a crap pointless season it feels like he pulls out one or two inexplicable wins every season.

Levis looked good most of the game, with some catastrophes mixed in there.

He'd be good if he could cut out they brain-dead plays.

 

[mrMet]

Not a Titans fan., but Levis is a better fit for the offensive scheme Titans run...

That's why they let Dobbs go ..wasn't because of his talent but he wasn't the pro style QB they want...

Yeah I agree. This stuff isn’t rocket science. But people can’t separate their college team with the nfl.

And as much as I love Dobbs, you’re seeing precisely why he isn’t a starter in the NFL. Great backup that can come in and win a couple games but not a #1 guy when the pros are scheming against you for multiple weeks.

Hopefully by that point the Gators are a steaming mess, the players have quit and Tennessee can drop 50 on them.

I had a 2.5 unit bet on packers -5.5 last night. Lol at me

 

[Orange_Crush]

For a rookie he really is impressive and keeps getting better. Dont know what his ceiling is.

Unlimited. He could throw three, four pick sixes in a game without even trying.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

I agree from a technical organizational perspective but NFL players, or anyone competitive will never just lay down like that.

Also, if Levis is the long term answer, there is also benefit to seeing him playing in and help win a game like that.

In my long term scenario Levis is gone in a few years.

My plan is focused on having a SB contender when the new stadium opens in 27.

Draft as high as possible in 23 and 24 and put the pieces around the QB and supplement the defense with whatever it needs. After 25 draft your QB( potentially Nico) and let the last season in Nissan be his rookie season. That way when the new stadium opens you have an exciting young team with hopefully a franchise QB on a cheap contract and you have money to spend to keep the good pieces around him.

My fear is the Titans are going to keep screwing around a stay in this mediocre zone we live in and never really do anything.

Facts. Hell, I’m sure there are posts here from me back on draft day 2 annoyed as hell we picked Levis. I hated it.

But he’s gotten his chance and it seems like he’s the qb of the future. So give me all of that. I don’t care about where players played in college once they get to NFL and on the titans. That’s silliness

If you ain't down with that, then you ain't down with the Titans experience lol

 

[mrMet]

That may never happen. He seems to be trending to be a Brett Favre lite. He’ll make stupid ass decisions but then he makes throws where you’re like damn that’s impressive

 

[mrMet]

If you ain't down with that, then you ain't down with the Titans experience lol

His last paragraph screams that he’s only a recent titans fan. We are definition of .400-.600

 

[mr.checkerboards]

This is going to be cool.

Nah, just my whole life. I'm just not as old as others.

That sort of mentality will play if we can ever get some dudes.

Oh I know, I just hope to see a SB one day.

 

[Volbucky]

I have no clue what Jalen was doing View attachment 601564

Pruitt taught him that

 

[mrMet]

Nah, just my whole life. I'm just not as old as others.

I think you’re the same age as me, and in our lifetime we are .500 I’m pretty sure. Mostly thanks to Jeff Fisher

 

[Jack Burton]

This is going to be cool.

Is it possible we’ll get a night game vs Florida in Neyland? When was the last time that happened?

100% agree with this. I played in a rec league once where the coaches refused games they're teams weren't playing in. When it came time for the playoffs there was a ton of bias when said coaches needed a certain team to lose.

This fall league i was so mad….

1. They skipped the draft and claimed they would draw out of a hat….. one team had pretty much the entire All-Star team except my son and one other kid.

2.My son turned 13 in the middle of October(well after the league started) i had checked preseason to see if he was still considered 12U and i was told yes bc i wanted him and my foster child to play on the same team. The week of his birthday i sent an invite to two players from the loaded team. The next day they sent a message saying that anyone 13 yrs old was only eligible to pitch one inning a game. i called the commish and asked if that applied to my son bc he turned 13 well after the cut off… He told me No that my son was fine… Later that season another coach called the commish and complained about my son… The commish came down and was yelling at me while i was coaching 3rd base. We got into a pretty heated argument…. After the game…. we talked and i reminded him what he had said earlier…. He backed off and said he thought something else was going on. In the playoffs…. My son pitched 3 innings and the commish told my team mom that i was lucky the other team didn’t protest bc He was only allowed to pitch two innings. He had apparently backed off the one inning rule and was given my son two innings….That means they had a rule that applied only to my son…. I will never coach at that league again.

It’ll be the perfect storm. Huge cap space next year, Levis on a rookie deal… if we can get a top 10 pick and somehow get an OT, spend some money on DBs and resign Tart and Al-Shaair, there’s a chance. Need to add another WR and Tee Higgins comes to mind

For those of you who saw the Marco parlay from a few weeks ago for 1.5 million, he smacked another one this week. The guy is good
