Farsendor1 Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 1. Healthy Mariota 2. Kevin Byard to progress 3. CBs actually need to play and cover receivers. 4. Special teams need to win onside kicks. 5. 15+ yard punt returns. Those 5 things in my opinion could shoot the Titans up to the top. Offense on paper looks great I think the largest issues is defense and special teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttitansfan4life Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 1.) Healthy and more consistent Mariota 2.) Much improved receiving core to be just that 3.) Much better DB play 4.) OL and running game plays just as good as last year if not better 5.) More consistent pass-rush These are kind of broad but fit the narrative. Also was wondering why it's double space between each line on the new forum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deeluxx3 Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 Good topic 1. Healthy and improving Mariota 2. WR play overperforms 3. Defense actually causes turnovers 4. Pass D overperforms 5. Run game duplicates last season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farsendor1 Posted July 24, 2017 Author Share Posted July 24, 2017 I'm surprised with lack of special teams play. Am I missing something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winning onside kicks isn't going to decide whether this team goes to the super bowl. Hell if the team provides the 5 things I mentioned, the team should be winning a lot anyway and onside kicks isn't going to make a difference. Kick coverage and returning needs to be better but I wouldn't put it top 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think, compared to most of the things appearing on the lists, special teams is just bound to be better. Virtually every signing beyond the top three were made to address special teams issues. Most of the other ones are centered around improvement from younger players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingTitan Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 1, Healthy Marcus Mariota (Nuff said) 2. At least an average pass defense (secondary) 3. Relevant special teams. (A lot of the teams I think back that have won, have special teams unit that can produce field position or points) 4. Solid O-Line play. (Protect and dominate in run game) 5. Dynamic plays from the LBs. (We need more splash plays from our LBs. Pass rush or Pass Defense. We need them to make some splash plays). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titans fan 617 Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 1) Mariota needs to become a top echelon QB 2) Corey Davis needs to be the real deal 3) Defense needs to be a Top 10 maybe Top 7 D 4) Both return games have to be good 5) Brady needs to get hurt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean I want Titans to win but not at the expense of other players. I think they could win at some point even with a healthy Brady. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he meant it facetiously...like, we'd need Tom Brady to not be playing for us to have a shot, because otherwise we could never get past the Pats.

Titans fan 617 Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 Ya that's what I mean we have a better shot with Jimmy G at QB than Brady Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
titansNvolsR#1 Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 1. WRs hit potential 2. CBs hit potential 3. Orakpo stays healthy 4. MM needs to continue to improve and not go full Bortles 5. Bring in Justin Hunter and DGB as motivational speakers for Super Bowl halftime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
