why on earth did he agree to this? Burnt too many bridges elsewhere?

Eagles are selling right now after giving Big money to Bradford. Makes no sense.

Huge upgrade over what they had at RB.....if they use him right, unlike the Eagles.

I disagree. They had a very nice stable of RBs who were used/abused by Ken Whisenhunt.

His numbers weren't great at all but he was in a bad system for his skillset. I'd take him over Latavius Murray in a heartbeat and definitely over Sankey, Andrews, and McCluster without even blinking,

My point is that the Titans had good RB's and misused them. Whisenhunt is gone and I can't imagine Mularkey stubbornly refusing to commit to the run game like he did.

Damn he went to an even worse situation RIP murray

Honestly the titans have had issues with their running game for several years. And the reason why they have looked bad is because of it. They had some stability in 2013 but fired Muschamp, let CJ0K go. Tennessee already has a good pass rush and a good CB, a elite RB can go a long way. That is, if Tennessee uses him right. Who's the coach?

He's alive!:eek:

That said I like the trade for TN. As you say Hammer, Mularkey will be more flexible when it comes to the ground game. As long as they stay off the subject of Chipper, I have a feeling their opinions of him vary quite a bit, Murray and Mariota should get along pretty well.

What good RB?

Hint: it's not Sankey, Cobb or McCluster.

Kuharsky wrote a compelling piece attributing the Titans struggles equally to Ruston Webster's NFL-worst drafts since the Jake Locker pick and their complete and total lack of commitment to the run game.

I believed every word of it.

No one would be good here. No one.

Sankey is a weapon, make no mistake!

What about LeGarrett fucking Blount?

Not good enough for the Titans but a devastating weapon elsewhere!

Did you like how Whisenhunt used Jackie Battle?
