    Certainly looking that way. But Texans division record is better so titans have to win 1 more

    Yeah for the titans I think a Colts win yesterday would have been better. Colts have to travel next two before their handy home one against the Jags.

    Hard to know though Osweiller is terrible so there is a chance the Texans choke in one of the next two giving the Titans a chance to close it out at home.

    I think the Titans lose to Kansas next time out.

    Yeah me too, need to hope the texans lose 2 then, assuming they beat the Jags and then lose to the Bengals and Titans

    I think the Bengals could do you a favour. Although I wouldnt bet agains the JAgs either. Strange team with some good players at times.

    Wow, balls to the wall win right there.

    Broncos, Chiefs, 2 "easy" games left, need to win


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,293 ✭✭✭coco0981


    Texans are playing nowhere near the level of the titans right now. Think ye should top the division

    Apart from Luck don't think the colts are good enough


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 21,658 Mod ✭✭✭✭helimachoptor


    Colts can win out and take the division even if the Titans do the same.

    I expect the Colts to lose one of their final 2 Bengals/Raiders.

    Titans are relevant(ish) again :D

    The Colts are a game back on ye and the Texans so if ye win out ye take the division. Titans are clearly the best team in the division as the moment

    Jaysus I was sure it was a 3 way tie


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,380 ✭✭✭The Reservoir Dubs Anchorman


    Unreal win yesterday. To go for it on the 2 point conversion make such a f*** of it and then pull ouot the win anyway, unreal.


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 21,658 Mod ✭✭✭✭helimachoptor


    ballsy move, seems the view was

    Score 2 - make them pass when our defense was on top
    Don't score 2 - Make them go conservative and get the ball back.

    Very risky given we had no timeouts left, a 1st down wins the game for them.

    Part of me thinks he was thinking, well we werent expected to win this one anyway. I dont want 15 mins more of bashing against this defence as I have a game I can win next week.

    Either way inspired and ironic that Succop kicks the winner after being a chief formerly. Will have enjoyed that. He's been rock solid from 45 in and that was a big kick for him yesterday. also Ironic the attempt to freeze him allowed him the sighter he needed.

    havent seen the coaches film yet, but it didnt look like it cleared the bar by all that much

    Well the first one fell short.

    Once it cleared the bar thats all that matters

    Game of inches and that was very true on the kick id say.

    It's been some turnaround this year, Mularkey has surprised so many people


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,380 ✭✭✭The Reservoir Dubs Anchorman


    He's done a great job this year.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,380 ✭✭✭The Reservoir Dubs Anchorman


    f****n tiitans


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 21,658 Mod ✭✭✭✭helimachoptor


    Post combine..

    I expect the Titans to trade out of the number 5 pick

    So i expect first round to be Defense and then a TE

    Yeah, I think today would be an important day for your GM watching the DB's. I think CB is the Titans biggest need. With the 5th pick, the Titans can get Lattimore. Thing is if Robinson doesn't like the pick, he can as you say trade out of 5th overall, and pick one later on as it's a very deep CB class, particularly around the 20th to 40th. There is good CB's like Tabor, Jones, Wilson, Conley, Humphrey, etc. there

    tbh, i dont think we'll see the Titans go DB until the 2nd round.

    The view is they will address it primarily in FA with Bouye and Kirkpatrick

    Titans WR Harry Douglas and S Da'norris searcy have both taken chunky pay cuts of around 2 million dollars each.

    assume J-mac didnt fancy taking it which is why hes gone


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 21,658 Mod ✭✭✭✭helimachoptor


    Good draft imo.

    Corey Davis provides a big bodied and quick outside WR, assuming he's no ill effects from his injury.

    Adoree Jackson adds to the CB position, lightning quick and agile, but pretty small.

    Jayon Brown LB is my pick of the rest to make a big impression.

    Jrob has made some changes to the staff with the Director of Scouting Blake Bedingfield moving on after i think nearly 20 years with the titans


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 21,658 Mod ✭✭✭✭helimachoptor


    Matt Cassel has broke his thumb and requires surgery, there is some rumours that the Titans might look at Kaep..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,510 ✭✭✭Hazys


    Tennessee is probably the last place that would welcome Kaepernick

    Yep, i dont see it happen and the rumours seemed to die out pretty quick, we may go with Tanney but wouldnt be surprised to see us get someone in


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 21,658 Mod ✭✭✭✭helimachoptor


    Mariota has 3 years left on his rookie deal, including his 5th year option, however i expect him to be signed..

    I reckon a shade under 29 million per year :pac:


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 21,658 Mod ✭✭✭✭helimachoptor


    Titans finally signed Corey Davis on the first day of training camp, so will see him on the field today.

    Eric Decker looked damn smooth out there, as this Taywan Taylor who got a lot of first team reps.

    Tajae Sharpe is looking bigger than last year but will be on the PUP list, perhaps to do with the assault stuff.

    Tretola released and Casey gets a new contract
