Game Day Thread Official Game Day Thread - Titans @ Pats

[holyredeemer]

Defense is getting sliced and diced right now.

 

[TomPatriot]

Jackson needs to make that tackle

 

[holyredeemer]

Titans have been very methodical on this drive. Getting some nice runs on 1st down, allowing them to really switch it up. Someone needs to step up and make a play.

 

[reflexblue]

Seems like the defense is a little rusty from those ten days off

 

[PP2]

Tannehill dinking and dunking.. nothing over 10 yards. That's what we'll let him do all game long.

 

[jimnance]

I think the Pats run game needs to trend more to off tackle and sweeps than up the middle. Simmonds is REALLY good.

They could also use Jakob in there

 

[Rob0729]

Another quarter without giving up a point.

 

[Pats2000]

Refs have missed 2-3 blatant holds from Tenn. We need to pick up our intensity on defense.

Which are you referring to? Judon? He seems to like that move where he tries to slip under the OL by pushing their arm up and then getting under it. Because he pushes their arm up to his head area and tries to run around them. They have a right to keep their arm there. So it looks like holding, but it's a position Judon put them in. So it's legal and not a hold.

He's been great, top 5-8 defender this year. He had a rough draft process but Tenn knew how talented he was. Some of the heaviest hands in the league.

Mac Jones made it look easy on that 1st TD drive didn't he? That TD pass to Bourne was thrown with such placement, timing, and confidence, that the defender had no chance.

Titans are marching right back, but I'm confident this D will make Tannehill turn the ball over sooner or later and that's probably going to end up making a difference in this ballgame.

Kind of an advantage for Vrabel, him knowing the Pats so well, but hopefully McDaniels has some wrinkles prepared that even Vrabel hasn't seen yet.

Almost always a good idea

 

[patsfanfromoversea]

meanwhile zach wilson throws a funny INT

 

[Foxypats]

wow an 8 minute drive allowed by the D !!!!! yikes..

 

[stcjones]

Defense sloppy thus far…..

 

[Gumby]

Another quarter without giving up a point.

Nice, but a formality when you let them March to the 2.

i feel like they don't call holding that often this year, seems like they missed this in a few games so far

 

[holyredeemer]

Vrabel really dialing it up. Defense is gassed.

 

[TomPatriot]

12 guys in the huddle. No call

 

[doesntmatter1]

its a td

 

[Rob0729]

That should have been a TD.
