The ascension of Will Levis saved the Afc from getting steamrolled by Baltimore the next 3 years.
🙏 thank you Mayo man
The hate that the fanbase and the coaching staff have for Gus continues to confuse me.
We have an amazing RB1 with two capable back ups.
gus has never been a receiving threat or big play threat, 2 things you expect for a marquee back these days
he’s a big bruising back that is perfect for short yardage and goal line
He does have an 80 yard reception this season.
Sorry about that
Brad Holmes had better try making an inquiry with the Titans. If there are years where we should consider go big or go home, it would be this year and the next. Love Jared Goff, but we saw how fast QB can fall off year over year. Better strike when the iron is hot.
I mean wasn’t it confirmed they had a deal in place and Amy Adam’s vetoed it?
last I heard, it was confirmed that Amy didn’t veto anything
Ravens beat writer cope. All the titans sources (including PK) say Amy wasn’t involved
Reddit values late round draft picks way more than actual NFL GMs do
Wasn’t meant to be
I really want Henry to get the Larry Fitz treatment by the team and retire with us. I do not care about the minmax optimization issues our running game will eventually suffer from because of it. Turn him into a Blount/Jamaal Williams scenario and just give him all the goaline runs when he’s 35 lmao, idc
I co-sign that completely. I’ve never wanted someone to retire a titan more.
I don’t see the Titans paying him what he wants though. As much I like lifers in the NFL, it’s basically impossible for RBs to stay on one team because they always demand way more money than their output allows.
Like late career Jerome Bettis?
I too support this take Titans friends
6 rushes / 3 yds / 3 TDs
If he remains on the team and stays healthy, he’ll likely eclipse 10,000 yards and 100 TDs by the end of next season. I want that so bad.
Judging by what Bmore’s running game did to us, not sure they need him…
As I said then, the Titans messaging was just damage control, the owner veto’d the trade the GM had in place, but didn’t want that narrative floating around that she overruled him.
In situations like these I typically choose to blame the Falcons. If those dirty birds and rowdy ruffians hadn’t let Will Levis throw for like a quadrillion yards and 4 TDs Henry is in Baltimore right now, binging The Wire to learn more about his cozy new home.
Listen, man. Were just trying to get our coach fired. We can’t be thinking about helping other teams trade for difference makers by winning right now.
Honestly glad we didn’t. Mitchell looks very promising and we can use that pick to fill a spot of need like a guard or tackle. I’m assuming the pick was a second or third so we can hopefully get a nice player there.
Marlon lost his boner soo fast
And then the next game we went to put up 300 yards rushing.
and they had a pretty decent run defense, they were 8th in yards per game, they are now 21st
Who needs King Henry when we’ve got UDFA fantasy waiver wire STUD Keaton Mitchell
That is my fantasy lottery ticket you are talking about.
And UDFA Gus Edwards.
Do the Ravens really need additional RB. Their running game and RBs aren’t that bad.
Before Keaton showed the world how much of a beast he is, our rb depth was looking putrid. If Gus went down, we’d be relying on Hill, who let’s just say isn’t a fan favorite at this point of the year
Need? No
Want? Yes
Why throw when run do trick
And, Why offense when defense do trick?
Mostly just for depth considering after Dobbins injury Gus Edwards is our last proven RB
Though if Keaton Mitchell is for real that will help a lot
Mitchell is still unproven and has started the year pretty injured. So he’s a wild card at best.
Gus, statistically, is having a below average year. That could either be wear and tear on him or our new OC doesn’t run the ball and scheme up elite running plays like Roman did. Roman may have been a terrorist for the passing game but he was a savant for the run game.
Hill isn’t a premier back and despite a few nice runs, isn’t anything special. A nice depth piece.
Our running game is also propped up by Lamar running the ball. We’ve always had him be a high percentage of our run but you typically don’t see 30% of your rushing yards in your QB.
Adding in a premier back such as Henry takes a ton of pressure off our pass game and it allows our RB’s more depth and less touches leading to fresher backs. Gus is great for our team but no one is sitting here saying that Gus is in the same category as Henry. (Minus yards per attempt).
Gus, statistically, is having a below average year.
He is on track to set PRs for both running and receiving, and already has more TDs than any other season.
Keaton was pretty injured? He started with a *wink wink* IR because after what he showed in preseason there was no way he would last on the practice squad.
Yards per carry wise it’s a down year, but he’s been killing it recently and he’s a td machine
The stats on my fantasy team have determined this is a lie
they’d like to be able to go into a wildcat offense in the 3rd quarter when they’re winning by 8 TDs
Ravens just dropped a bag on Lamar’s head. He’s not playing anywhere else and he’s playing there for a long time. Ownership is gonna want to maximize how long they’re going to be good under him rather than go all in. Cap situation is already gonna be wonky, they’ll need the picks to minimize how much they’re paying not-QB to be in Baltimore.
I mean the king on the ravens immediately makes them Super Bowl locks
I whole heartedly believe their running backs would be fringe roster guys on almost any team. Their run game is so well schemed and their oline is amazing.
Yeah I honestly agree with you, also Lamars a cheat code with option plays, he makes it 10x easier for rbs as the defense is usually confused
