    I like this idea. Reich could definitely turn this mess around. I mean, he’s already led the biggest comeback in this franchise’s history.

    Greg Costello isn’t the only one who is noticing this. I listen to the football channel on xm radio all the time and a lot of the radio hosts are former players and they are saying the same thing. Trust me we’re not the only ones questioning what the Titans are doing offensively.

    We ran the 65% 3 wide last week against the Cards, and Mariota had one of his worst games. He threw an INT directly into the waiting hands of a LB that sat in the same spot the entire play.

    But yes, scheme needs more spacing.

    Mariota did bad... but the scheme doesn't give him a lot of opportunity to do well.

    "It worked last year!" Yeah, and competent DCs figured it out. They evolved, we didn't.

    Where the hell has Jonnu Smith gone...the guy hasn't been targeted in the last 4 games. Before that he was getting about 3 targets a game and actually has scored 2 TDs on his 13 receptions. The kid is not a great blocking TE. So if he is in the game then he really should be running routes or catching screen passes. He was in on 48% of the plays against the Cardinals. Come on coach...put your guys in a position to excel.

    Only times I've heard his name was blocking or on a weak route that was easily covered.

    I find that stat hard to believe.. not saying you are wrong is just everytime I look at the plays I usually see 1 or two WRs running routes.

    The complaint is Mariota stares down his receivers... curious if it's just that he doesn't have many options to look at.

    I'm surprised you have Mariota as your dispay picture.

    Most people here don't want to believe the truth, they want to believe that the Titans run Jumbo 80% of the time, it helps them sleep better at night thinking the Easter bunny is real.
