    To be fair, his accuracy wasn't bad the first 4 weeks last year, didn't have one turnover. Sure it was dink and dunk, but I'm fine with him being a game manager if it leads to W's. We were 3-1 before he went down having beat pit on the road, almost (and should have) beat the cows, finally getting the charger monkey off our back and beating up on the jets. Sadly they responded by taking out Jake.

    I'm more concerned about his durability than his accuracy.

    I think he has of the talent needed to be a sucessful QB in the NFL. His attitude, work ethic, and leadership skills are top notch. He is athletic, not afraid of a hit, and can get away when needed.

    But the million dollar question mark is, as many have said, can he stay healthy?

    He has the weapons. Wright, Washington, Walker, and Hunter, (who will be scary once he finds his hands), for the air. Sankey, Green, and McCluster in the backfield. A beefy O line that looks great on paper for protection, and a defense that has real talent in McCourty, Casey, Woodyard, Brown, Klug, McCarthy (if healthy), and Woods.

    It really comes down to his health. Really.

    I disagree.

    There are a ton of post VY fans that want to see Locker fail. Just like I am sure they are glad Greene had a bad season and hope that we 'regret' releasing CJ.

    I agree with scary hoe

    We have a certain segment of our fan base that thinks assholes like VY and CJ are soooo cool.

    - Probably age 13 to 24
    - Thinks Lil Wayne is legit
    - Miami Heat fan
    - Monster stickers on the Honda
    - Call of Duty is their ****
    - Mountain Dew 24/7
    - 2X Tap Out t-shirts
    - Wears snap backs
    - XBOX Live 4 Lyfe
    - Not actually attended a game in years
    - Warehouse job
    - Bud Light ftw
    - Uses "YOLO", "swag" and "fail"
    - Dropped out of community college
    - White


    It wasn't the VY and CJ playing for the Titans in these people's mind.

    It was VY and CJ gracing Nashville with their presence.

    I agree to an extent. But I don't think that group makes up a significant portion of the fan base. There are always going to be idiots and big name jockriders. Hell I'm sure somewhere in Oakland there are still folks complaining that Jamarcus Russell got a raw deal.

    that hit was a routine hit even jake said it wasn't dirty so I do agree durability is a big issue. Accuracy too though because he didn't play well vs jags or rams which should have been easy for him to move the team down the field so I am very iffy on his accuracy.

    Put this post it the HOF.

    And is it interesting how many Locker haters are CJ nuyswingers. It is like the harder a player tries the less they like him.
    JetsWillWin2 and xhrr are good examples of what you described above.

    Also interesting how many of them wanted johnny football. They love the flash instead of stance.

    Oh hammer give it up just cause I don't have much confidence in Jake being healthy like you do. He hasn't been so sorry for not being totally optimistic he will be. If he does great cause I'm tired of having sorry ass Qb's. I doubt his durability more so than his ability. 80/20 would be a good ratio of why I doubt Jake. He seems like a good dude the type of guy you root for to succeed and I hope he proves me wrong and stays healthy.

    I never once stuck up for CJ and JF career is yet to be determined. If I'm wrong I'm wrong big ****ing deal. Will you sleep better if I'm wrong. FFS give it up.

    Also

    I'm 23
    Lil wayne sucks fuking dick
    Celtics. No team I hate more than the heat and watching the spurs whoop that ass was bliss
    Monster stickers? Maybe if I drove a diesel truck and was from WV.
    COD used to be cool when I was 18.
    Soda is nasty. I drink whole milk for the gains brah.
    Every time a douchebag wears a tap out shirt I'm fairly certain the still active massive volcano under Yellowstone gets a little closer to erupting and causing a volcanic winter that kills most of the population
    I wear my hats to the front like a normal human. Cap on brim bent.
    I have a PS4
    I own a crossfit gym and work as a personal trainer
    My first piss in the morning tastes better than bud. I would imagine.... Craft beers is where its at
    Never have I ever
    Graduated and going for my masters
    I am white

    in before TL;DR

    Stop being butt hurt.
