    I'm not saying he's great. But he is solid on this team. Compared to what else we have. Stafford is garbage. Wilson is old.

    Oh so don't credit him for getting back there so fast or hustling to make the play instead of giving up on it?!?! Yeah sounds like you're reaching for shi* now.

    He also caused another sack near the goalline by getting back there so quick.

    There is no reaching you shouldn't need 2 chances to make a play, either make the play or GTFO of the team. Griffin is garbage without a Chris Hope/Pollard to be the enforcer in the secondary. Heavn forbid if a RB/WR makes it past our linebackers and Griffin is left 1 on 1 guaranteed touchdown.

    Griffin is old too, dude is closing in on 30 in January.

    Listen, I dont know why youre so content on average to sucky, whats with you backing terrible players?

    Devils advocate right, got it.

    You cant win the griffin argument, just can't. Every single year since 2010 the guys play has been called into question, the end is here for griffin as a Titan.

    I can show you multiple times where Griffin has came up to tackle the RB. His tackling has improved. Did he get beat by Garcon on that long TD? Yes. Does **** happen? Yes!

    And yes you are completely reaching. He still made the play. He managed to get in the backfield so fast the disrupted the play. Regardless if he makes the sack or not. That's a heck of a lot more than most players on this team. Casey doesn't get many sacks but he disrupts the play a lot. So are you gonna blame him for not finishing the play and making the sack?

    He's not great. However he has been solid and a good teammate for us over the years. More than most players on this roster.

    Youre holding him to a pretty low standard, and thats the problem.

    This team has always done that, if you're just good enough you get to stay, and for some players I can put up with that. But not from a Safety, not the guy standing between you and the endzone. We need our safety's to be good players. There's no coincidence our best years came when our safety play was good or great. And if you look all around the NFL find me one winning franchise over the years who put up with poor safety play... Only on the Titans for some reason.

    I mean how long are we going to gripe about Griff?

    If TWW2 like him, you know he sucks. Same poster that thinks CJ and Britt are great players.
