I wasn’t aware we’re mid season and actually seen results. Please don’t tell me you’re using a preseason game against 8th stringers and training camp practices to come to the conclusion that the defense is so much improved because as far as I’m concerned, that’s still a ways from being seen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we can come to the conclusion that the defense is improved almost by default. I mean, there is a floor.

I'm tellin ya! You gotta watch out for Chester Rogers. I think he's another Clipboard Jesus just waiting to tap dance his way into our hearts. #welcometotheTitans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just want to say this... Not so much I told ya'll but kind of a I told ya'll... lol When we weren't going out to sign JuJu to $50 milly contracts, I said I think the Titans WR isn't as bad as people think. Rogers and Johnson both have some nice experience. Not saying they were going to be the next coming of Art Monk and company, but they weren't scrubs. We shall see if they can do some of this positive stuff in the season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel the same. They couldn't be much worst than they were. Given the changes I couldn't see them doing anything but improve even if marginally.

I actually am using training camp practices as are most educated fans are doing.. its not 100% until the games, but 17 INT'S in 14 training camp practices is great.. the reserves who we had questions about (tart, murchison, etc) are all performing great in practice and it translated well in pre season game 1. Hooker has been making plays since day one, Byard seems to be back, and oh yeah, this is being done largely without Bud Dupree, Autry and Simmons. everyone around the titans that actually KNOWS football continues to report that the defense looks much improved and should have everyone excited.. so yea..... eat it.

I mean, there is a floor. no way... i dont wanna hear that.. especially from the vrabel/bowen haters.. thats weak as hell... folks criticized them all off season, the defense looks to be on the way to being a very improved unit but all they get is "well the defense couldnt be worse so it had to improve." thats BS.. the defense could have stayed the same and been just as bad. look at the perennial crappy teams in the league with bad coaches.. they stay bad.. they dont just get good just because they couldnt be anyworse.. look at the 16-18 browns for example.. bad coaching continues to yield bad results.. good coaching (which we have) shows improve.. so give credit where it seems its due.. to the staff and the GM.. cause a lot of yall are quick with the criticism but slow with the praise..

Someone would give a late rounder for him, especially after the injury bug starts to hit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
