    I would like to see him get to the redzone and score a TD

    It seems in previous years, we have been able to move between the 20s pretty well, but once we get to the redzone its like hitting a brick wall and we always settle for the FG attempt.

    have to score TDs to win in today's NFL.

    I thought Lewan was only going to block for Mett.

    I just want to see the starting offense move the ball.

    I dont expect a mythological march down the field in the first preseason game with a rookie QB...

    I want to see Lewan and crew back up all the talk and maul people at the line and give Mariota a chance. I believe he will do well if given time. FG or TD in their limited time and I'll be happy.

    That was kinda funny when someone suggested that.

    Lewan has seen first hand how good Mariota is, he wants to win, not be butt buddies with Mett.

    If Lewan backs up all of his talk he's going to be nasty this year. That's good news for Mariota and the Titans.

    Lewan is facing Orakpo every day at practice, when they played each other last year Orakpo spanked him, them being together now only means Lewan will be better prepared for the top pass rushers on game day, I like his chances of being really good.

    45/63 389 yards 4 tds. Tears Labrum on final drive. Whis screaming AGAIN, AGAIN, AGAIN as Mariotta runs Qb draws 6 times in a row inexplicably trying to win a preseason game.

    I honestly don't even really care about Mariota. It's his first preseason game.

    I'm more concern with seeing the OL open holesfor Sankey and Co, and see our D get stops. Especially on 3rd down. That's the key.

    Did you miss my post on how having bigger RBs will help the defense stop other teams RBs? There's a good chance were waay better at stopping the run
