Quick Review of Titans game

[tallglassofwater007]

he did it to drunkenmiller and then the poor guy couldn't throw straight for the rest of his career

But he could bench press a house.

I liked seeing Gore involved in the passing game

The GIF reminds me of when Greene did that to Young.

For Baldwin. I think people need to take a more measured approach. The offense as it stands right now does not give a whole lot of opportunities to the little guys. Running game deservedly takes a lot of snaps. Plus, Kap as a young QB is leaning heavily on his two best targets and it is kind of hard to fault him when they are seemingly taking turns having big games over the last month. Baldwin, Williams, and McDonald are lucky if they get more than 2 targets in a single game.

You're thinking of the great Jim Druckenmiller. Boy that guy was off the charts when it came to measurables, but too bad he didn't make a good NFL QB.

I was skeptical when I saw that but it's true. Not only is it true, but nobody else has had a higher QBR this year than Kaepernick's 99.0. It's tied for 14th all-time (games since 2006).

Alex Smith had a 99.3 last year vs. Buffalo when they won 45-3. That's tied for 8th all-time (since 2006).

What was Manning's week 1 against the Ravens?

Edit: Just looked and it was 83.6 and he threw 7 TD's with 0 INT.

I am not sure what goes into QBR but it sounds like a stupid stat.

Just googling it, Barrows had him at 320, Maiocco and a few others list 318.

Draft scouting says 304, so it is a big jump already.

He was 318 at the combine according to NFL.com. Based on the eyeball test, I wouldn't put him much higher than that now.

Re: Dial's height, I don't think it's a major problem. Lots of NTs are quite tall. Paul Soliai is 6'4", as are Haloti Ngata, Jay Ratliff, Ndamukong Suh, and Red Bryant. Sione Pouha comes in right around 6'3 1/2". Kevin Williams is right around 6'5". Those guys are all pretty comparable to Dial's 6'5 1/2" frame. Granted they aren't all pure NTs, but they play a similar role.

yeah, his height isn't a problem as long as he performs. if he can hold the point and be effective against the run, doesn't matter how tall he is.

we'll just have to be patient with him, but the fact they activated him in lieu of Purcell.....speaks volumes.

 

[4lifer9er]

the closest NT's in that list are Soliai(Whom I wanted us to get 4 or 5 yrs ago in the draff) and Ratliff. All the others I would classify as 3 techs or DE's

So if he doesn't perform his height is a problem? That seems pretty binary.

Objection your honor; argumentative. That's not what he said at all.

no its not what I said, but not surprising to read it.

if you create your own "mis-interpretation", then its easy to attack and say its wrong.

Ya, he has a tendency to do that from time to time, but IMAC's a good dude in my book. Good poster too.

I like this one: "Just because it's your opinion doesn't mean you have to share it." I think those are wise words.

those are, but depends on the venue too? if on a message board, then opinions must be shared.
