Rumor Poutasi moving to Guard

Well if we had anyone better i believe they would be playing but unless we get someone from FA then its going to be something like that.

 

Titansonline.com has a practice update on it. Mularky said Bell worked at RT and Poutasi at LG. Although the rookie has not been good at all at RT I still think it's a good idea to see him at G. We need to know if that draft pick is a total loss or not.

We know Bell is not a solution at RT. He MAY and I stress MAY play a little better than Poutasi at RT. I sure hope so. He was BAD in Carolina at T. Hopefully he can be a little better. We will still need a TE to help on that side a lot IMO.

I believe if we can give MM time to make a throw; he has the ability to make us better. Our oline has to block better. Our WRs have to get out faster, our TEs need to chip/block better. Our RBs have to give support in blocking as well. We have a long way to go. It's all been talked about.

Whiz was not willing to change any of his scheme to help with blocking. Finally he is gone. Hopefully we can look forward to seeing our STANDING up after the ball is out. It's unrealistic to think he won't be hit or even sacked; but the past weeks have been a beating.

 

I agree with everyone else, this move to G is best for him. He got one heck of a baptism by fire trial these last few weeks.

 

Yeah, he was projected at guard for a reason. I really hope he works out. If so, we can aggressively look for a RT in the offseason.

 

A simple experiment like this (one that 90% of titans FANS thought of), is reason enough for whiz to never get a hc job ever again in the nfl. Everyone that's watched a game knows our oline has sucked, why no experiments? Not saying this is the answer, but the ability to see a problem and attempt a solution is something way beyond the whizinator. If it's broke, you fix it. If it works, you keep it the same. It blows my mind that some of these guys even get paid (coaches). Idk if ole poutasi will work out anywhere in the starting lineup this year (but, it def ain't at rt), but he does have some upside.

 

Yep. Poutasi actually played fairly well in some of the games, such as the Tampa game, Indy, most of the Buffalo game...but against Cameron Wake and JJ Watt, it was foolish to leave him out there on an island with little to no help. Heck, even Lewan played poorly against the Texans. I think Poutasi could have developed into a decent RT, but the premiere pass rushers know how to work a rookie. Whisenhunt knew that and did little to help him.

 

Our RB committee should be 1) David Cobb, when he gets adjusted after a few games 2) Terrance West 3) Andrews

We should stop playing McCluster at TB. He is a Pop Warner sized athlete trying to compete in the NFL. He has no business getting any carries, except on reverses and WR screens. He should immediately be moved to the WR group, to back up Wright as the slot WR.

Sankey should be inactivated or moved to the practice squad for now. Play West as much as we can, and let him know, if he gets a case of fumbleitis, he swaps places with Sankey. NO MORE SCATBACK BY COMMITTEE!!! I'm sick of it!

 

Are you kidding me?? Andrews has done way more than cobb or west to warrant the nod. If, if cobb shows he can play now, then you make him the #2 until he proves he's the guy on gameday. The order should be andrews, west then cobb at this point, imo. West has potential and has looked good at times, but to put him ahead of andrews is absurd. Not saying abdrews is the answer, but he deserves a chance to show us over any current rb. But, I'd agree with you if you were basing your order off of potential alone. Cobb or west should be our starting rb, just not yet.

 

Cobb is still overweight and sounds like he has put more focus into partying than staying in shape.

 

Notice I said "when he's had time to adjust." I suspect Webster intended for Cobb to be the feature back at some point this season...knowing that his drafting Sankey was a bad call.
