Re: Defense Wins Another One

The two teams COMBINED didn't net 500 yards of total offense. Man, that must've been one butt-ugly game.

yeah i hear that vince, a win is a win at the end of the day becuase at the end of the day when it comes to the last game of the season and determining who will make the playoffs, people wont look at the scores, they will look at the W's and the L's and that will be all that matters...

good game from what ive read and seen, we scrapped by again but got the win and defense ONCE AGAIN stepped up so cant ask for much more, and LenDale White getting 130+yards on the ground is pretty impressive, Young did well in his first game back as well

Re: Defense Wins Another One

the game was played smart not agressive that explains the score the titans didnt pass down field at all axcept twice and the first one came early in the first quarter.i was watching nfl network after the game and they said the titans suck basicly they didnt realy say they suck but they did in a nicer way they said we can only run not passed (it's worked so far) they said our defense is why we are winning (thats why the bears went to the superbowl) and they said the colts are a lot better team than us (we only lost by 2 points and if you remember they had a lucky fieldgoal that bounced off the cross bar and went in)

Re: Defense Wins Another One

i think Vince started off the season slow and we blamed it on not having played for a while and starting the season fresh, then he got slowly worse and then got injured.

i think Vince has had a few problems this season:
the first being that he doesnt have a 100 yard a game back behind him to hand the ball off to to get the yards he needs.

secondly he doesnt have the best arsenal of recievers in the league and becuase of this he is finding it hard to find a go-to-guy he can rely on in situations, in some games it might seem like certain players are that guy but none have been consistent.

thirdly the offense has seemed to change to rely more on Vince's arm rather than anything else and as much as i love Vince he hasnt got the best arm in the world, ye it has the distance but not the accuracy, so he can hit a guy long if he has no coverage but if he does its always a risk of a pick. i think the Norm Chow and his group were so worried Vince would tuck and run, like Vick, that they wanted him to use his arm more. but in his rookie season he did amazing without using his arm much..

finally, teams are learning to collapse the pocket around him to make sure he doesnt run, but then Vince has no option to get rid of it or run out and gain the yards and as much as i think our O line is very good i dont think we have very good outlet recievers to come back and give Vince and option if he is in trouble

we will see how good VY will play this week now that he has a 100 yard runner behind him and i dont know about you but bo schaif and eric moulds have bean terrific receivers for VY this year.VY is a good playmaker but it looks like the biggest problem for VY right now is norm chow than it is the opposing Dfense because they are trying to make him play with his arm instaed of him playing with his talent which is his ability to run and be the 3rd demension to the titans offense.
