    What terrible play from the Titans defense for that run. That is a killer right before halftime


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,599 ✭✭✭ScrubsfanChris


    Titains: "What's a defence?" :pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,050 ✭✭✭✭StringerBell


    Wow

    There is gonna be some angry defensive coaches on the sidelines right about now

    Nantz a bit over the top with the "out of this world"....

    That was less about Mahomes and more about the "tackling"....

    Jaysus they should really be stopping Mahomes there!
    I think the Titans will find it tough if the Chiefs come out and score first in the second half, they dont seem like a team built to come from behind

    Vrabel will lose it at HT after that. Was looking like a contest, think it'll be over in next 15 mins now

    Tackling in NFL is getting worse with each season. Too many fellas acting like Rambo's bollocks.

    19mins to 11mins for possession. But losing 21:17. This will be tough for the Titans.

    The amount of players that tackle with their shoulders and/or heads and don't use there arms is shocking.

    Sure what do you expect when the time allowed for practice in the off season has been reduced tackling is bound to suffer.

    If the chiefs score a touchdown after half ,they will nearly have it .Titans not built to play from behind

    The titans need to get the next score either a FG or TD. If the chiefs get the next TD then I’d be worried for the titans.

    He was clearly in.

    This has always been a massive bug bear of mine, it seems it is more important to get a "hit" on someone than actually stop them by making a tackle.
    What way are they coached to tackle as kids? If missed tackles was a stat like in rugby then they would be all over it.

    Chiefs have done really well in the 3rd quarter keeping Henry quiet. A TD here and the titans will need a miracle.

    Yeah, game over I think if they score here


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,599 ✭✭✭ScrubsfanChris


    Defence hasn't shown up for Titans.
    No matter how good Henry is this looks like the end of the road for the year..

    Having to put the game in Ryan Tannehills hands isn’t what the titans were hoping for.

    Which is why Judge's press conference when starting with the Giants didn't make much sense when he started talking about more padded practices and more tackling. You just cant decide to do that.

    Lots of coaches at junior level are flat out terrible, they aren't provided the types of support or oversight that you get with sports in Ireland. Turnovers are such a big thing, much more than rugby, and when you only play one element of the game I understand why players can go for the 'big hit'. More coaches are moving towards rugby style though.

    For Mahome's run I feel the QB rules might have come into play. Some defenders seem afraid to take a full shot at a QB for fear they'll step out or slide. Slightly different but last weekend Garoppolo pancaked Barr with a block when you can nearly see Barr pausing thinking how hard can he hit him.

    Game over.

    Titans pass rush just hasn't been good enough, when they've dropped so many guys to cover. They've only rushed 3 guys a lot and Mahomes has had time to pick someone or run himself.


  • Registered Users Posts: 605 ✭✭✭Kev8360

    That’s the game...

  • Registered Users Posts: 8,599 ✭✭✭ScrubsfanChris


    You waste a timeout because your defence isn't set
    ..... and you still give up the 1st down.

    Yeah, that team isn't winning the game

    Well that’s it you’d have to think.
