TitanLegend Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 I'm worried about this west coast trip, especially with the injuries we suffered today. Looks like we'll get Blaine Gabbert vs Arizona so hopefully should win that, but vs Garoppolo we're probably gonna need to be at full strength.

ttitansfan4life Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 League needs to enforce a rule for excessive complaining to the refs. Should be a penalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TitanLegend Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Quarterback Marcus Mariota ran in a score and threw for another in the Tennessee Titans 24-13 victory over division-rival Houston Texans. Second-year running back Derrick Henry recorded 109 yards on 11 carries, including a 75-yard touchdown run that clinched the game with just 0:57 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter. Texans QB Tom Savage was tasked with a lot against Tennessee, attempting 49 passes to the tune of 31 completions and 365 yards but their rushing attack mustered just 53 yards on 22 carries in the loss. With that, we give you our PFF-exclusive takeaways from the contest for each team. Top 5 Grades: TE Delanie Walker, 87.7 overall grade S Johnathan Cyprien, 85.7 overall grade LB Avery Williamson, 84.2 overall grade S Kevin Byard, 82.8 overall grade QB Marcus Mariota, 80.7 overall grade Performances of Note: QB Marcus Mariota, 80.7 overall grade It was a solid performance by the third-year quarterback, as his offensive line did a marvelous job protecting him. Under pressure on just six dropbacks, Mariota was sacked twice, ran for a first down and didn’t complete a single one of his three attempts, but he shined when passing from a clean pocket — 15-for-20, 150 yards, 1 TD, and a passer rating of 112.5. Mariota kept it safe for the majority of the game, throwing deep just three times completing none. TE Delanie Walker, 87.7 overall grade When looking Walker’s direction, Mariota was a perfect 5-of-5 for 63 yards and a touchdown, resulting in a perfect 158.3 passer rating. On two big-time catches on the drive gave Tennessee took the lead for good, Walker spread out where he did his damage as each of his passes was caught against a different defender in coverage. He was excellent as a run-blocker once again as he continues to be one of the better run-blocking tight ends in the NFL. S Johnathan Cyprien, 85.7 overall grade While Cyprien was charged with Houston’s lone touchdown on the day, he was otherwise excellent throughout. He gave up just two receptions for nine yards on five throws into his coverage, and led the Titans with a run-defense grade of 88.6. CB Logan Ryan, 75.0 overall grade Ryan’s grade may be average, and his day ended early due to injury, but Ryan held his own against one of the best receivers in the game. Charged with covering DeAndre Hopkins 1-on-1, he gave up just five receptions for 44 yards on nine throws into his coverage against Houston’s top weapon. Of the four incompletions, he batted away one pass and was in position with blanket coverage on each of the other three. https://www.profootballfocus.com/news/pro-refocused-tennessee-titans-24-houston-texans-13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TitanSlim Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 I said it during the game in the General GDT, Delanie is right up there with Eddie & Steve as my all time favorite Titan. The impact he's had on and off the field during his tenure has been enormous. An all time Titan great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TitanTuff Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 What a roller coaster. I remember the lead up to the 1999 Superbowl. Game after game of nail biters. I just heard it was Lewan who called the pitch play to Henry for the 75 yrd run. Nice job big guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttitansfan4life Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Arians is a genius. Making Gabbert looking good in that scheme. He throws his picks but he’s looked better this year than he ever has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's gotten Carson killed the last two years behind that terrible offensive line because he refused to switch from his deep passing system. Same thing that got Ben killed for years too. If he's got a good o-line it can work really well, but for whatever reason his teams rarely seem to have one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titans fan 617 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 What a game not prefect by any stretch of the imagination but they pulled it out. Robiskie is so Jekel and Hyde with his play calling. He had a great play call on the Mariota TD but a lot of that Game feels like he takes his foot off the gas but we won I guess that’s all that matters On the other hand LeBeau really needs to stop being so stubborn. When the Texans only have Hopkins to throw too why is it so hard to put Adoree Jackson on him to take him away and leave the Texans with no one to throw too? He got bailed out today but watching Ryan get shredded play after play was sad. On to Arizona for our first ever trip in this stadium Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On to Arizona for our first ever trip in this stadium Ryan was by far our best bet against Hopkins, and he had a good day. He can handle physical receivers much better, and it showed. All he allowed was mostly underneath stuff and that sideline grab that for every other player in the league is a season highlight, for Hopkins it's just routine. Adoree on Brown was a smart choice, so was Ryan on Hopkins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TitanSlim Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Adoree has been very good this year but having him one on one with Hopkins would've been disastrous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one should be one on one with him but watching Ryan play off of Hopkins on 2 or 3 straight plays mixed in with the long grab down the side lines was bad. Ryan was also in on the Hopkins catch when he was double teamed and Ryan went for the swat of the ball I don’t think Ryan had a good day I don’t care what the stats say. Giving up long balls and key 3rd downs I would to have liked to have seen what Adoree could do on him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly adoree struggles wit playing technique & mixing it up when it’s time to be physical. Ryan played a hell of a game 2 of those catches Hopkins I know were him getting pushed off ??♂️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hes not ready for hop right now imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
