So I guess the top dog is back. We won't count the whole 2016 season he must have been injured / insert blame

---

First time actually getting to watch Mariota all season. (Had an event the night of Thursday night football and just deleted it from the DVR when I got home when I found out how it went)

 

I'm not impressed, looked exactly like what I said he was, a guy that can be an Alex Smith and who will always have injury problems if his offensive line can't protect him VERY well.

pack it up guy its over

Can somebody get Tom "Dynamite" Savage in this thread!!!

---

Hmmm Mariota injured.

 

Who'da thunk it?

 

Shame too.... He was having a pretty darn good season.

Two weeks ago Blake had his worst game of the season. This past week in Marrone's first game, he had his best game...


 

Week sixteen results...

Brock remains benched for the final week of the season so unless Savage gets hurt, his stats are final.

I don't know where you get 27 for Mariota considering he stunk up the field against good defenses last year. As for Blake, he somehow regressed this season, but he was playing darn good football last year. You must have somehow missed it.

It took Smith 4 years to do what Mariota did his rookie season and it only took him 8 seasons to put up anything close to Mariota's second season.  Mariota turned the titans around from a 3 win team to an 8 win team with Mike Mularkey as his head coach.  Jags should have been what the Titans were this year but Bortles didn't put the work in.

It was disappointing to learn that he didn't work as hard in the off season and got wasted during the season, the night before games.

Blake took over the fumbles lost lead right at the end there, and almost took over Mariota's overall fumble lead.

I would imagine, if true, the tendonitis Blake had directly impacted his fumble rate.

Surprised Bradford is so high there, and Stafford is so low.

Is that the mind bending ESPN stat or the traditional "Passer Rating" stat?

I'm trying to make myself more informed and less opinionated.

Stop saying whatever stupid thing you're talking about and pay attention to all the interesting things I have to say!
