This guy is smoking something

Braden Gall from 247 in Nashville was on Josh and Swain today saying that Dobbs will start over Willis if Tannehill is unable to go next week or if the Titans make the playoffs.

Milton

100 - 0 Vols
Milton Mafia makes a big splash Friday night and starts the Heisman hype

 

[RiseToTheTop]

Willis is not an NFL player.

This guy is smoking something

Puff, puff, pass, I wanna be as high as this guy. Of course, he is probably just an idiot

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Draft King's doesn't have any rushing props for Dobbs. B.s.

 

[Batman1948]

I didn't realize that the staff didn't let Banks travel with the team for bowl week.

I'm thinking grades maybe but that's just a guess. He has told everyone that will listen that he just wants to ball. I don't have any info---just my guess

A good listen.
Only player that TN wanted from the portal and missed was RARA Thomas

Get Thornton you will be more then Rara. Thornton is bigger and better

Any word on James Pearce? I remember seeing it mentioned that there was a possibility of him leaving.

Hope not. Going to be a really good player for us. Especially after a full year in the s&c program.

I like the over on rushing yards. I think he gets that in the 1st half. Passing yds, idk, o158 sounds good, but who is out and are they gonna really try to win? Ints scares me either way.

While 23 yards is still reasonable, gotta remember sacks count against. With that, Titans OL is terrible and Cowboys are 3rd in the NFL with team sacks averaging about 21 sack yards a game. Counting sack yards I’d say he will have to rush for closer to 44 yards to hit the over.

Edit: disregard.. was thinking fantasy football terms.

I joined VolNation 10+ years ago. . . the past several weeks is the first time I've ever talked to any of you bums during & after a 10 win season, including bowl wins.

Most of us have never been on VolNation during a 10-win season. Crazy, because of Tennessee's pedigree/history and playing 13+ games every year. Not sure how to act. . . are we supposed to be extremely petty to rival fans, cash in our receipts, and turn our nose up to the peasants who didn't win 10+ games? . . or should we pity them and let them know things will get better?

I've seen it all---been a Vol fan since the mid 60's. I make it a habit to avoid this place after any loss---doesn't matter what sport----because this place is full of keyboard coaches who think they know everything and constantly want someone fired-----they can all KMA

 

[Devo182]

Hope they win

All day.

Go Forned Hogs!

Screw the pups

 

[nashvol1]

Not sure why the Titans would protect 14-23 for 99yds & 2 int.

Dobbs is being given the B for what? If anything Willis needs more playing time to either flame out completely or learn. Why are they not playing him the same week as playing the starters? If Dobbs starts next week then my question was off.

Definitely happy for Josh but would rather see him get a shot with the A team.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Think Bama will ever play that song at their games again? . .
Maybe a new tradition. . . whoever wins gets the song for that year,

 

[PYSCHO]

Gumps on sec rant think Pruitt will be their dc next year lol

Who cares to be honest

What an amazing Sr year he's had. Been a real pleasure seeing him evolve into a multifaceted weapon.

Also reminds me how genius this staff is.

 

[jave36]

I hope it turns out to be true and Ohio State beats them by 100. . . any way both teams can lose by 100?

Go buckeyes and wolverines. *vomit*

They don’t count against rushing in the NFL i don’t think.

 

[Jackcrevol]

slowly one of my faves. feels very genuine.

Sacks count against "team total passing" in the box score, not the individual passing yards or rushing yards.

 

[Nash_Vol97]

Looks like you are right after looking that up. They used to count against rushing yards in fantasy football which is where that thought came from. Remember seeing a guy lose his fantasy championship off a QB kneel at the end of the game because of the negative effect it had on his QB rushing yards

Did anyone ever see Bo Burnham's quasi comedy/music show he made a year or two ago? Never been much into musical comedy, but I've heard his one song "All Eyes on Me" a few times recently and it has stuck with me.

Just read an entire explanation of his whole show and it's pretty wild...yet sad. Curious if it is worth watching and still funny or just dark and sad. I've been unable to watch dark stuff since the pandemic. Funny thing is I keep talking to others and they've said the same thing. Feels like I almost have to watch exclusively light, funny, silly stuff these days. Seems it is somewhat universal.

Them dudes in Orange Britches have been quite uplifting as well

I'm thinking you would have had to have lived through the great depression to understand their love for clowns.
