Bobbyn2022 53 Posted October 11, 2014 Any chance this kid takes over for locker and ends up being a solid QB? Strong arm and seems like he has heart. For some odd reason he reminds me of Brady coming out of college. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fanfootballtn 33 Posted October 11, 2014 coach wisencunt is tanking the season.....soooo. no Man I was thinking the same, He is too calm at the press conferences. At least Vandy's coach has fight left in him. Jake better put the house up for sale. To answer your question, Mett wont start unless Whitehouse gets hurt. He still has a learning curve. Those preseason numbers were against 2nd & 3rd string players so don't get too excited. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

murf74 461 Posted October 11, 2014 sometimes coaches are forced to start the young guys and it works out (see Cowher who loves his vets and who Whiz learned from... forced to play Big Ben when Maddox went down). I think we will see that in Tenn (Hunter forced his way on by being a beast, Sankey in for injured Greene, and Whitehurst will get pulled at some point in a blowout and Mett will get to show his stuff).  there is no such thing as tanking a season in the first few weeks, especially with a new coach  This is simply Whiz being a product of the Cowher family tree that values veterans who know what they are doing over playmakers who may make mistakes.

Tom_Brady's_feet 0 Posted October 11, 2014 I am only starting Wright this weekend. I do hope that Bishop and Hunter finally explode so I can play them on a weekly basis. I am heavily invested in the Titans this year. Disappointed thus far. I blame Whiz. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Flgatorguy87 160 Posted October 22, 2014 I don't use Twitter during the semesters so I can focus on keeping my grades up and not waste more time than I already do on here. So I haven't been on since August. The way I find people to follow is by searching and seeing who guys like Jay Glazer, John McClain, Jim Wyatt, and Adam Shefter follow.

Flgatorguy87 160 Posted October 23, 2014 I'd bet that's bs.Yeah it seems early to throw in the towel on the season no matter how obvious it is to the fans, and Titans beat writers still are not reporting anything. Jim Wyatt is usually first to the party on everything. I was excited for something for once this season as a Titans fan but I'm sure it's to good to be true.

Donkey 34 Posted October 23, 2014 The Tennessee Titans have decided to start rookie Zach Mettenberger at quarterback against the visiting Houston Texans, a league source told ESPN's Adam Caplan on Wednesday. The sixth-round draft pick out of LSU will get the start Sunday over Charlie Whitehurst, who has led the Titans to one win and two losses in his starts this season for the injured Jake Locker. The Tennessean earlier reported that the Titans planned on starting Mettenberger. Locker has missed the past two games with a bruised thumb and another game with a wrist injury. Coach Ken Whisenhunt had said Locker would throw Tuesday and they would assess how he responds. Whisenhunt has also said nothing has changed in his thinking about the Titans' quarterbacks, meaning Locker will return as the starter when healthy. The Titans (2-5) will be looking to avoid a sixth defeat in seven games when they host former Titans quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick and the Texans (3-4). After dropping four straight, the Titans edged previously winless Jacksonville 16-14, then lost to Washington last week. Whitehurst was 17 of 26 for 160 yards, two touchdowns and an interception in the 19-17 defeat to the Redskins. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bigperm0107 3 Posted October 23, 2014 The Titans have benched Jake Locker. In the last year of his rookie contract, Locker has likely played his final down as a Titan. ESPN's Adam Caplan -- who's had a great read on the Titans since the draft -- "can't see" a scenario where Locker gets his job back barring an implosion by or injury to new starter Zach Mettenberger. If this is indeed it for Locker's Titans career, he will finish with 26 touchdown passes, 24 turnovers, and a 57.3 completion rate. Although Locker has myriad flaws, he has a strong enough arm and enough athleticism to resurface in 2015 as a useful NFL backup. Locker simply doesn't throw the ball with enough accuracy to be a consistent big-league starter. He's also been wildly injury prone in the pros. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
