Yea their approach of no Oline or Dline is interesting to say the least

I read that he wants to play in a 3-4, which I thought was strange. Seemed unnatural when he was doing that in HOU. He was billed as a straight 4-3 DE out of HS, chose USC over Bama because the latter ran a 3-4.

Guess he got used to it under Vrabel.

I don't see any report on whether it's a 1-year or not.

Not unexpected he would say he'll play what his new coach wants.

This might work.

Go to a team who's not lucking their way to another AFCCG and who plays less inspired at home.

They're going to win their division most likely and have a pretty good argument for being the 3rd best team in the AFC after this move. Yeah they won't get the 1 seed, so what? They got a puncher's shot in the AFC.

Sour grapes....

Especially when you consider that most of the teams in the playoffs last year had pretty good defensive fronts and even when LOB was in it's prime they had Bennett and Avril upfront. It's like Seattle didn't see a way to really upgrade the front so they doubled down on the back end in hopes that makes the defense above average.

They are not going to another AFCCG again after failing to get to a SB last year, and I had Colts more than a game ahead of Tennessee before this signing. I have the Colts/Steelers week 16 game being a marquee match for the 1 or 2 seed.

It should be pointed out that in 2014, Clowney wanted to play for Atlanta because it was closer to home. Clowney is a mama's boy. He cares more about the south and being close to home and money than he does a ring. That move showed it.

 

[molsaniceman]

Titans signed DL Jadeveon Clowney to a one-year, $15 million contract.
Clowney got more than the $12 million that was first reported. This looks highly incentivized, but it's a good deal for Clowney after going unsigned through training camp. Clowney had only three sacks in an injury-filled 2019, but he gives Tennessee a quality edge rusher. With seven days before the start of the season, Clowney isn't a lock to be active in Week 1.

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

So basically he signed for what Seattle offered him. Oh well.

no worries. we all know by week 3 or 4, he'll be out with some sort of injury.

 

[Brees#1]

So here is Tennessee's predicted 7 losses before this deal

@Vikings
Steelers/Bills
Bears
Colts(1)
@Ravens (this is complicated. Either they or the Colts beat them)
@Packers
@Texans

So with this move, which of these games got affected?

 

[Sharkonabicycle]

Eh whatever... I think Seattle's DL will quietly be okay. Green showed promise last year, LJ Collier barely played, and they added Mayowa/Irvin as pass rushers. Brooks was the highest pass pressure linebacker in the NCAA last year, and Jamal Adams is bar none the best pass rushing safety in the NFL.

Literally all of them because wins and losses aren't predicted through discrete and binary outcomes per se. There's luck and variation involved, and Clowney impacts them now when he does and doesn't play.
