    The 2nd half of the Raiders game wasnt as bad as play calling goes. They werent as "predictable" they did a nice job of mixing it up, on 1st pass, 2nd pass, and 3rd throw.

    Last year majority of the time we ran on 1st and 2nd downs. Every team knew that and we they couldnt stop it. This year it seems as if the run block isnt nearly as good. There's no holes to hit. Atleast from what I seen in preseason games and vs Raiders last week. I hope this doesnt continue or else we wont have no choice but to be a pass first team.

    My hope... we become flexible like NE and can adjust our offense to either.

    After looking at this it looks like the line was not horrible. The RBs did not hit some holes & were pretty impatient at times. The line could've been better at times; but the RBs definitely need to be better this week.

    Titans were down 23-13 at 12:04 in the 4th.

    I think they were chasing points even when it wasn't necessary. That's on the play calling. After the Roberts TD is when the run game kind of needed to disappear and even that is a stretch if there is any faith in the defense.

    I like the run but damn Robinskie needs to quit running the same run play to one side if its not working! Also, if DeMarco can't cut it then lets get Henry the carries.

    I honestly think we blow them out. Our d did a pretty damn good job against one of the best attacks in the lesgue. The jags are no where near as good as Oakland, on o. We should be able to force bortles into bad throws. We just have to stay disciplined against fornette and the running game.

    Murray has been in a slump since our thursday night game vs jags last year. He'll give you a couple big runs/catches a game other than that its 1 yd here 2 there, hits brick wall on 3rd and inches. Its time MM realizes hes not a work horse back anymore, let Henry beat up defenses then get Murray in there for some relief work. Look how much better Murray did against Raiders after Henry was in for extended period of time.

    I get the sense that a lot of people are overreacting about the Jax D. Are we forgetting the ineptitude that is the Houston offense? That team could make any team's defense look like the '85 Bears.



    Secondly - I rewatched the TEN/OAK game last week. I don't really know where all this "he looked panicked" is coming from. He looked great to me. The red zone was the only real disastrous area. We converted on several third and longs, and his rushing TD was nice.
