    How The Titans Went Retro And Unleashed Marcus Mariota

    I'm surprised to see such an in-depth article on Deadspin, but on the Titans no less! A very cool breakdown and some very impressive numbers.

    Especially in that Minnesota game. Team goes down by two and go into panic mode.

    I wrote off mularkey pretty early but he's done a good job so far. Not sure if he's the long term answer or anything but at least he's made the year enjoyable.

    I had a conversation with someone about that, maybe Gunny?

    Anyways, down 2 scores is no time to change things up and get away from what you do best, which for us is running..

    Time should really dictate how you go about moving the ball, not the score..

    Their defense was wearing down, that is the time to keep running

    Interesting how running more has unleashed Mariota. Crazy how that works

    I just don't think running more has helped mariota the past 6 weeks. I think it has more to do with a healthy Wright Mathews getting more reps because of AJ retiring and the improved route running which is probably due to learning the playbook more and more each week.
