footbull3196 Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 He's looked terrible the last 2 seasons. This team has won more games with Blaine gabbert as their starter than Mariota. Yes, I understand Walker is out for the season. No, that is not an excuse because he has his new offensive coordinator and his high draft pick receiver. He made Rishard Mathews so mad that Mathews quit the team because Mariota wouldn't even look his way Ive never seen a quarterback regress so badly. The guy he reminds me of right now is Josh Freeman. But at least Freeman bounced back in 2012 after his 2011 regression with a 4000 yard 27 TD season. Mariota looks completely indecisive unless his target is wide open I'm really interested to see the excuses that people make for him at this point. Sure seems like he's running out of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you could have made a strong case for him as a top 15 quarterback after 2016 when he threw 26 TDs to only 9 INTs and almost led the Titans to the playoffs. He's just looked completely anemic since then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
August4th Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 I think at best he's a guy who's ranked around the 12-16 range. would like to get more from a QB picked at 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danger Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 He's a game manager, that's fairly obvious at this point in time. It's starting to look more and more like the Titans should look to draft a QB next year. Well, at least if there's a decent one on the market. Might be one of the most sensible destinations for Derek Carr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asciimo Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Never has been a great player and a fluky season doesn't prove otherwise. He's Bortles tier at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's just looked completely anemic since then Pretty much any QB can be a top 10-15 QB for ONE season. Sustaining a high level of play is only something that truly good QBs can do.

RuskieTitan Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 My greatest fear came to fruition. We kept Mularkey around long enough to break Marcus Mariota. That, combined with his season ending leg injury a couple of years ago, and he hasn't been the same as the rookie who showed so much flash and 4 TD passes in his opening game.

SteelKing728 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 They could trade for Carr next season, and if they are lucky, maybe they can con Jon Gruden into taking Mariota off their hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elky Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 He was definitely a top fifteen quarterback before fracturing his fibula. But that and all of the other injuries he's had are starting to add up. QB is absolutely a position of need imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
