    I give him credit for doing a radio interview yesterday. He pointed the finger at himself and took all the blame. Now, let's see if he does anything about it.

    I hate NO IDEA how they gave him that deal, what did they think money would make him better?

    I commented how its getting a lot harder for safeties in general as the league moves to this new passing style, and with all the rule changes against DBs. However, tackling has nothing to do with that, and actually horrendous is an understatement for him. I re-watched the game, twice, and wow, just WOW.

    Its insane that both our starting CBs (Mac n ATV - late round and mid round) can tackle better then him (1st rounder).

    Every once in awhile while scanning the recent topics I accidentally read this thread title as "Titans part ways with Grfifin" and I simply cannot explain the joy I feel for that one split-second before I realize my mistake.

    I give him credit for that too. At least he's holding himself accountable. I have no doubt he will play better. But we've seen 5 years of this guy and, aside from the year where our entire defense went to the Pro Bowl, those 5 years have shown us that he's never going to be more than an inconsistent, occasionally slightly-above-average player. That's why I'm so baffled that we went ahead and gave him a long-term deal instead of letting him play out the year under the tag.

    It seems the franchise has gone 180 degrees since Reese moved on. I think they've been generous in signing guys like Amano, Harris, Hawkins, Babs and Stevens. They had every right to play hardball with CJ and probably would have been better off doing it. The Griffin signing was surprising. The McCourty deal seems smart but losing Finnegan pretty much forced their hand to get one starting CB under wraps.
