Recruiting Forum Football Talk V

I think this current window is gonna close but Vrabel and JRob are good enough together to stay competitive most years.

Then one of them is going to have to realize what the rest of the football world realized decades ago...QB QB QB. Offenses flowing thru the running game died with the 20th century. Buffalo gets it.

Big Orange Hotline from Dead End BBQ with Bob Kesling, Pat Ryan, & Jeff Francis –

Some notes:

Bob had an interview with Hooker. He noted that Hendon had been a pretty accurate passer throughout his career as a college QB and asked him how he developed that accuracy. Hendon said he comes from a QB family. His dad was a QB and his little brother is a QB. Hendon said his first receiver as a kid growing up was his little sister. He said he had to be pinpoint accurate and he had to throw with touch on his passes because every time she dropped a pass she blamed him.

They had a preview of the Gators with the new radio voice of the Gators. The previous guy retired after 33 years. The guy said they’re working on their passing game and he thinks Richardson will come along, this being only his 4th start. He said on defense they’ve been having some alignment issues up front against the run which they adjusted for in the second half of the Utah game but then has some of the same issues last week. Bob always seems to get in a punch with these opposing announcers at the end of the interview and tonight reminded the guy that Richardson has 0 TD passes and 4 interceptions on the year.

The guys talked about our defense and how we’ve been able to a lot of times get pressure on the QB without bringing blitz packages. They raved about Baron and Young. Mitchell started last week and they all thought he played good. Jeff thought he started over Beasley only because he hasn’t played since early last year and the staff wanted him to get some snaps before heading into SEC play. They all thought our LBs were playing good..

Jeff said he thought we had the better team for this weekend. He noted that Florida has a lot of talent but said this being their first year with a new staff he thought we had a significant maturity advantage.

Pat said on defense he thought the key was gap integrity because “on offense we’re going to put our damn foot on their throat.”

we certainly have the personnel. I agree we haven't done it much but we could destroy people with it if we start to use it i think.

I said that in the game thread not long before Hyatt ran through the middle of their defense like through a

Watching the UF USF game now. If this UF team shows up Saturday, it will be a bloodletting.

 

[drvenner]

Beautifully played

Dude it's a total tool. I'm talking about West.

Taylor Lewan is an injury waiting to happen..I don’t recall him ever having an injury free season.

He's been garbage since the day they picked him, imo. If he's not an injury waiting to happen, he's a walking penalty.

It’s not that easy to get a Josh Allen. And they just won 12 games had the No. 1 seed last year.

Henry = 2007 Larry Johnson

What about their game against South Florida last week?

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I think Tillman will be good to go.

I hope he is.

 

[VolGee4]

Just curious: how do you have OPI on a screen pass?

 

[engineerVOL]

Titans first drive: 9 plays, 11 yards, 6:24, PUNT. That’s as lame as it gets.

 

[SugarCC]

It’s not that easy to get a Josh Allen. And they just won 12 games had the No. 1 seed last year.

And then proceeded to get that ass beat in the playoffs, throwing 3 picks in the process. Not hard to win that many games whenever you play in a terrible division.

 

[engineerVOL]

Feels like that 59-0 game against NE 5-6 years ago… turrible

 

[volfaninpa]

Titans should just go with Malik Willis the rest of the year. Tannehill is done.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Bru will do fine.

He defintely has shown the overall physical ability..but we still don't know about his ability to make the tough catch yet.

 

[drvenner]

Anyone else get the feeling we’re setting ourselves up for an epic letdown? When was the last time Tennessee football actually met expectations on the big stage? I refuse to get sucked in this time.

And what does it hurt if you get sucked in? Not a damned thing.

 

[RikidyBones]

Tannehill trash still huh?

 

[engineerVOL]

That Titans offensive line is the worst one in the NFL and it might end up being one of the worst units of all time.

Years worth of OL draft duds.

 

[Orange Studs]

My husband is making me watch the Titans. Think I am going to go to bed early and listen to my book, The Sisters of Auschwitz. People are getting slaughtered there, too.

Going to be a long season the Titians.

 

[turdherder11]

Tannehill=JG of the NFL?

I’m not a Titans fan, but Tannehill has made an AFC Championship game. So……no.
