Doesn't best "tears don't fall" but good.Heavy is good. Lol.
The Titans have been able to win post Henry due to a very effective , all hands on deck, swarming defense (very reminiscent of some of our best defenses).
That said, as the weeks go by, not having Henry is severely hampering their "tough guy" we will punch you in the mouth, team identity. The further we get from the Henry injury the more vulnerable the Titans looks.
AJ Brown is having an injury riddled year, Julio Jones was a bust of a pick up and Jonnu isn't there anymore.
Pats should be able to win the dog fight. Won't be easy...fully expect vrabel to pull out all the stops defensively..but not having that knock out punch on offense (Henry) will prove to be the difference.
Pats are able to run the ball and that proves to be the difference.
I don't disagree at all. This is hammering my point home. Without Henry they can't be who they want to be. They aren't built to be a finesse team. They HAVE to be now and are struggling.Corey Davis isn't there anymore either. The Titans offense is injury riddled and a shell of last year's personnel. Tannehill throwing 50 times against the Texans is NUTS (poor coaching). Everyone on PatsFans seems to love Coach Vrabel but that loss to the Texans was AWFUL. Everyone was upset when we barely beat the Texans, but the Titans got spanked by the Texans.
Having said that I do not know what their defense is like.
Then we're actually in complete agreement. I've been saying for weeks that BB built a team with no #1's, but a whole bunch of good skill players.I'm the opposite on this one. The depth itself is the weapon, but on the field.
I rail against the single, high cost superstar WR ALL THE TIME (broken record, thy name is Scottman), but only because if you can trot out six legitimate average to above average weapons on the field there is no scheming that away for an opposing defense. How many teams have schemed out Hill now where he doesn't take over a game?
The odds are massively in your favor that you'll have a matchup advantage somewhere if you can vary targets across six guys...and if you double one (most defenses can only afford one double team per play), the odds remain favorable for the offense regardless just based on simple numbers.
Once those numbers decrease due to injury, that scale slides VERY quickly the other way. Either you field less weapons, or make guys who could have their flaws hidden by the variety - exposed.
Short duration (1-2 games) you can likely get away with it, but once a good defensive coordinator sees and exploits the remaining, much fewer option, players' weak points - the copycat league will remember.
Really good question. McNichols is still out. Looks like D’Onta Foreman, Dontrell Hilliard and whoever they have left on the practice squad (EDIT: that’s Rodney Smith, atm) will do the honors Sunday.Titans have waived A.P. Who is their RB this Sunday?
The bye week is a standard week like any other as far as I know..Any idea if that includes the Bye week or not? Since the 3 weeks is during a Bye week, do the Pats get 4 weeks to decide?
Have to assume they are both going on IR at the end of their 3 weeks unless Uche or Collins might not be back, and then there might be a place for McGrone. Can't imagine McGrone is fully healed from his ACL but maybe. Bledsoe is probably fully healed but I doubt there is a spot for him.
