These opinions may be burried in a thread somewhere (if so I apologize), but I wanted the through out a "simplified" opinion and wondered about everyone else's:

Volek = good
Return game = really good
Pacman = really good
Bobby Wade = Suprisingly good
O Line = Undecided
Woolfolk = Undecided (leaning towards "bad")
Reynaldo Hill = Ugly (sorry Gunny)
Roydel Williams = Ugly

Thoughts, opinions, complaints............................

you forgot scoreboards. :lol:

olek = A
Return game = A
Pacman = B
Bobby Wade = A
O Line = B+
Woolfolk = B-
Reynaldo Hill = F
Roydel Williams = D-

Crowd noise = F

The Good = First team Defense

The Bad = The backups

The Ugly = LP field

Return game = A

Bobby Wade = A

Woolfolk = B-
Reynaldo Hill = F
Roydel Williams = D-

Crowd noise = F
Sad part about the crowd noise is that it was better than most of the REGULAR season games last year.
One end of the upper deck tried to start the "wave" about 8 times last night. It died at about the 50yd line.

The Bad = Paying full regular season game price for a dull preseason game !
The Good = The beer was cold.

The Good = The beer was cold.
It better be at those prices.

If given the choice which would you rather have? Two seven dollar 20oz beers at LP or an 18 pack in the parking lot? I took the 18 pack.

Good god, you drank 18 beers?

I took option 3, stocked fridge in my den.

Pacman = really good


And, as far as I'm concerned the best news of the night.

The Good:

Pacman layin' down the HITS. Awesome!
Special teams looked great. Both ways.
WE HAVE A PASS RUSH!!!!
Did I mention Pacmans HITS?!
O line makin' some holes!
Brown high steppin'!
Henry strong to the goalline.

That was fun.

Good god, you drank 18 beers?

:ha:

Bobby Wade = Suprisingly good

Yes! We've found another reciever. And he can return too.

Also good: Ahmad Hall at Fullback had some good blocks.

One end of the upper deck tried to start the "wave" about 8 times last night.The Good - Pacman
The Bad - T-RAC
The Ugly - Nashville is still doing the wave.

:sad2:

I LOVED our pass rush, D-line all together were pretty good.

Pacman was ace, as was Special Teams

We don't have depth but I think we already know that, espcially on defense

Yes! We've found another reciever. And he can return too.

Also good: Ahmad Hall at Fullback had some good blocks.

Seems like Wade can be a really good pickup. Still early, but it's easy to see his quickness and shiftiness.

Hall does look like the smashmouth FB he was advertised to be. He was fearless and popping defenders in the chops. I like that.

Did Hall make the block on the Travis Henry TD run?

Reynaldo Hill = Ugly (sorry Gunny)

hater :ha:

Hall made A block on the Henry. Not sure if it's what sprung him in, though.

Unfortunatley, Fleming better watch out. Hall didn't make any plays last night but looking back on it, Fleming may have hurt himself more by not catching the ball last year.

The Ugly - Nashville is still doing the wave.

:sad2:

The Redskins fans were doing it at their afternoon scrimmage with the Ravens last week. I was shocked it had survived the '80s up there. Maybe this is one of those things where if you wait long enough, it comes back into fashion again.

God forbid.

The good = whole 1st string team (offense, defense, and all special teams)
The bad = 2nd/3rd string defense (except for a few players)
The ugly = Keon Raymond, Reynaldology, and that look on Reese's face when Young went down.

Mahelona, Randall, Roby, and a few others were nice bright spots in the second half. Poor tackling by Woolfolk could have put him out for a while. Never lead with your head! I think that Young looked like he was holding back out there last night. He was too worried about what people would criticize about his play the next day. He has awesome pocket awareness and a strong arm. He is all of the things that we thought he would be. IMO, he was just having the rookie jitters last night. If the Titans would have passed more, I believe that Volek could have put up some more points. However, I like the Fisherball stuff. Eat the clock, win time of possession.

Hey! I heard platforms were back! Help us all....

He has awesome pocket awareness and a strong arm.
Especially strong for how quick the release is. It's just a little flick but it flies 50 yards no problem.

that was crazy that pass.

Here's who stood out to me last night. I know a lot of this has been said, but I just want to collect my thoughts on the game.

Pacman -- kid is going to have a good season. I love how physical he is. Great how he can support the run. I get more pleased with him as our first pick last year the more I see him.

Reynaldo Hill/ Andre Woolfolk -- not Hill's night, for sure. Andre to me sort of made a case to challenge Hill. He got one INT when it didn't count, but a nice recovery from a previous blown play, and missed one when he should have had it. Had he, he miiiight have seen himself with a starting opportunity at some point. Not so sure now, but if Hill's next game is the same and Andre's similar, I might consider giving Andre a chance at outside again. I will say I didn't expect as much as we saw from Woolfolk. I say don't give up on him yet....and he really brought the wood. At this point, I wouldn't even consider this season without Andre, which I'm sure we're not. I can even see him getting in on the safety rotation with that kind of physicality.

Ahmard Hall -- All I can say is -- Fleming, watch out. When you get back, you better show why we drafted you. You better open up holes, and still demonstrate that ability to catch and go deep.

Special teams -- wow, are we going to rely on this unit this year. This might keep us in games we might otherwise not be in. We've got three good returners in Jones, Wade and Roby, and I'll tell you, as I'm sure you know, Roby outdid Wade on the kickoff returns.

Toone and Nande missed a lot of tackles. Nande caught my eye once, but I can't remember why. Marcus Randall, on the other hand, showed some of the shizz last night. Prediction: if things continue, Toone gets cut, makes the PS if he clears waivers, Randall makes the squad. Nande is given the chance to slow down and develop, somewhere toward the end of the depth chart.

I want to see White and more of Ganther to finish evaluating the RB corp, but we need Brown this year.

WRs need to catch passes consistently. If we get four to be consistent, we'll be decent, and I don't care if that group includes Ben Troupe if we have two productive RBs. I still think Williams is going to step it up -- I'm not overly concerned about one perfect miss, he's still got the moxy IMO; could have totally redeemed himself if he had shown more sideline awareness and scored that TD. Givens needs more looks. Bennett's looking similar to last year and needs to be tougher and more consistent.

TEs, wait and see, but should hopefully be good.

Fuller -- picking up where he left off it seems.

DLine I'm worried about without Starks potentially. I think LaBoy will be solid, but Odom needs to bring it up to that level LaBoy was showing at the end of last season. I'm sure we'll be waiting to see if a vet DT hits the waiver wire.

OLine. I'm anxious to see how this unit gels, and who ends up starting. I just hope it's the best mix. I doubt he'll start, but Amano intrigues me as a guard, and if he does well, might eventually replace Kevin Mawae at center whenever his time is up.

Glad Young is okay. Gave us a scare there for a moment. His performance was expected, but encouraging.

I'll also throw out there, I know it's just one preseason game, but I look forward to the rest.

I'll tell you, as I'm sure you know, Roby outdid Wade on the kickoff returns.


I think if you watch the game again, you'll find that you are wrong about this. Note also that Wade was playing against the first stringers (whatever that means in ST). Roby looked good, but Wade had a 50 yard return himself that looked real good. He had a couple of others near the 30.

First let me say, I didn't see the game... In Hampton Roads and not paying extra price (Sunday Ticket) for preseason games. Andre dropped an int I guess from what I read, but that means he was in place on the play. He got a pick and had 2 pass defenses (one of those would be the dropped pick). 4 solo tackles 1 assisted tackle, sounds like a good game. Like I have stated before, he is challenging Hill... It is his goal and his main focus.... Stay healthy and continue well play.. This game he opened eyes, maybe this coming game he can make eyes bat.... One note for this coming game... It is in Denver - Andre's home and his first time playing there since high school. Added incentive to do well, he will definitely have a lot of fans in the stands (family and friends - including me - flying to my home city as well Friday just for the occasion).... Good luck to all the Titans... Those who got a PM from me before in the past, remember what I told you about this game.... Less than a week Baby 1/2 and 1/2 plus the signs..... wheww weeee

the dropped INT was ugly on his part, but you are correct that he made the reciever into the defender - BUT IT HIT HIM IN THE HANDS arrruuughhh!

guess thats why he plays D - lol

Hall made A block on the Henry. Not sure if it's what sprung him in, though.

Unfortunatley, Fleming better watch out. Hall didn't make any plays last night but looking back on it, Fleming may have hurt himself more by not catching the ball last year.

Hall kicked out a Linebacker that was coming up to plug the gap. He laid the wood and opened up a good 3ft gap for Henry to plow through.

It wasn't a sexy knock the crap out of the guy hit; however, it was solid contact that started the linebacker going the other direction followed by leg drive that opened the gap.

The Redskins fans were doing it at their afternoon scrimmage with the Ravens last week. I was shocked it had survived the '80s up there. Maybe this is one of those things where if you wait long enough, it comes back into fashion again.

God forbid.
Hey, it's not my favorite either but it beats everyone sitting on their hands and quiet. It is like people think they are too cool to do it when it comes around.

Reynaldo Hill/ Andre Woolfolk -- not Hill's night, for sure. Andre to me sort of made a case to challenge Hill.

in that case :

:yell2: CAN WE PLEASE BRING IN A FA CORNER !!!!

reggie bush made us look stupid on one play, but pacman almost knocked him on his butt, that was classic

in that case :

:yell2: CAN WE PLEASE BRING IN A FA CORNER !!!!

Do you think some team is going to cut loose a corner with true starter potential, definitively better than what the Titans already have?

WU, clear your PM box so i can send ya something!

in that case :

:yell2: CAN WE PLEASE BRING IN A FA CORNER !!!!

ok Brian :rolleyes:

The Good - Pacman
The Bad - T-RAC
The Ugly - Nashville is still doing the wave.

:sad2:

Thank you Brian.

Do you think some team is going to cut loose a corner with true starter potential, definitively better than what the Titans already have?

Better than Woolfolk , Gardner and Waddell ? :yes:

the point is not to replace a 'true starter' but to add depth to the 2nd team

I think if you watch the game again, you'll find that you are wrong about this. Note also that Wade was playing against the first stringers (whatever that means in ST). Roby looked good, but Wade had a 50 yard return himself that looked real good. He had a couple of others near the 30.

Perhaps you are right about that. I did forget about that long return of Wade's. Roby just looked more explosive than I thought he would at the return position, I suppose. So, I'm really glad we have that kind of depth there. I guess that's more accurate.

im still laughing from adrian mcpherson getting hit by our mascot.

he should go back to the AFL/

reggie bush made us look stupid on one play, but pacman almost knocked him on his butt, that was classic


I just wanted this line to appear a second time. It's so sweet.:))

The wave is awesome. People still do it all the time in the Northeast and West coast.

So glad you are back! I thought we were never going to see you again Boomer. :winker: By all means keep your nose clean so you can stick around and be the thorn in someones side again!

Woolfolk did better than Hill Saturday. Nice INT, bad timing though. Although, Randall did as good as Woolfolk. I think that they said Randall is playing LB now. If Bush would have run to Pacman's side of the field the first time, he wouldn't have gotten the 44 yards. Pacman is becoming the Keith Bulluck of our secondary. Last year, Keith was the only big talent we had at LB. Pac should make the pro bowl this year... But he does have some league veterans to beat out.

im still laughing from adrian mcpherson getting hit by our mascot.

So was I, and my friend, earlier today. :ha:

The Good = Pac Man, VY and 1st team D

The Bad= Drew bennett and Courtney Roby's hands

The Ugly= The Cheerleaders

He caught a hail mary prayer on the 10 yard line. Big deal. It's not like he was blanketing some dude down the sideline. He probably lined up on the 10.

I give him more credit for the Special Teams tackle. That was a solid play.

The Wave rules.

Exactly! :beercheer

I was at the game and never even saw the wave...

:wave:

Starkiller, at the game, and didn't come to our tailgate party? I'm hurt.

I've been having internet trouble, but pictures from the Smack Returner tailgate will be up later.

So is T-Rac now a bad-boy mascot? I'd rather have a rough mascot than the players.

God I wanted Roydell to make that Catch, and Bennett. Both passes were perfect, though, which is GREAT. Here's to the longball!

It's ok, Starkillers always been a snobbish bloke. :brow:

just kidding, we all love SK. Reynaldology loves all its people.

Reynaldology loves all its people.

Some more than others, though.

Right, Gunny? :brow:

The good: Pacman's game, I think he is more focused and is gaining experience and a lot of confidence, nice hit on Reggie Bush!!
The bad: Inconsistency in offense, nice holes for Brown but I don't see that the line be consistent. Also Bobby Wade effort was awesome (learn something Bennett)
The ugly: Roydell Williams dropping that VY's beautiful pass and Bennett is so inconsistent, he drops everything, I don't like him to be a top WR for us, he was better when he was not challenged, after Mason and the other receivers he did a nice job but his inconsistency is killing me and the other fans. Drop in New England, last year vs Colts in the 1 yard line (that play turn the game around), this drop, common Bennett you can't be playing like this...

Starkiller, at the game, and didn't come to our tailgate party? I'm hurt.

He says that he likes to drive up and park, then go right in.
He's likely on a tight schedule. http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f95/bipolartitan/superman1.gif

It's all he can do sometimes to get away from his Fortress of Solitude. He has to get into his club level molecule chamber asap.

Heh... Not much of a tailgater, personally. But then I couldn't have done it on Saturday anyway...

...

two very bad examples if you ask me.
bennet had just made an amazing catch right before that new england drop. plus he had two guys hanging off him

the colts drop... well two years ago that wasn't a drop. i'm still not sure that was a drop. i think it was more the league kissing mannings butt than anything else. very bad use of replay

He drops too many balls.
