The Tape: 1st Quarter

by Jimmy on Dec 31, 2007 4:53 PM CST in Tennessee Titans News

The Titans have got to find a better return game in the offseason. You don't have to tell me that they have a game changing returner who is suspended. I am well aware.

It was good to see Biren Ealy get his first career reception. I think he will be a pretty good receiver for this team in the future.

I love it when the 1st drive is a march down the field like that. It means that the coaches did a good job of game planning, and the players did a great job of executing.

No pressure on Peyton early.

Michael Griffin is becoming my favorite Titan. He made 2 big tackles on the 1st drive. The 2nd one creating a turnover.

It would have been really nice to get points coming off the turnover. At the very least, the Titans should have been able to run out the 1st quarter.

Albert Haynesworth isn't going to get over this hamstring until the offseason. I just hope he can play decently effective for the rest of the season.

i want punkman back.

think about it next year. griffth. hope. pacman. finnigan and harper. woo that sounds like a kick ass secondary. albert, kyle, odem, laboy. man i think we are going to have a great defence yet again next year if we sign all them back which i very much hope for. i think we need somebody awasom next to albert brown does pretty good but is just kind of ok. he play with alot of emotion thats a good thing. middle linebacker is a qwestion along with tackle next to albert. if we got somebody at middle linbacker like ray lewis oh man it would be awasome.
i think we need to get some good recivers next year in the draft. i mean the guys we have are good but we need great. maybe some offensive linemen to protect our goldenboy would be good also. anyway just thinking about next year. brandon jones umm hurt to much. whatever happend to floyd resses calico? that was a bust maybe renfielt can find us somebody good at reciver.

Pacman

Yeah it would be nice to have a new-and-attitude-improved Pacman back on our roster. But if things don't work out between the Titans and Pacman, we may look at taking Deshaun Jackson in the draft. He would be able to contribute at WR and returning kicks.

If things do work out between the Titans and Pacman, however, I would like to see us take Limas Sweed, Vince's old go-to guy at Texas.

He likely would have been an early first rounder had his senior season at Texas not been cut short by a wrist injury, but his stock has fallen some due to that. He could be a steal if he's still around come selection time for the Titans

Yeah, Griffin is awesome!

The guy has been probably the second-best find of last year's draft. Adrian Peterson from the Vikings had a better season, but outside of that, I think Griffin has been as good as anyone. Great call taking him where they did.

I personally would like to see them take a monster DT next year in the first and either an OL or, I can't believe I'm saying this, a running back in the second. Or perhaps a TE, depending on who's available. I'm not as up on it as I could be.

As for wide receiver: we've got two (Gage, Williams) with one good prospect (Ealy). I can live with that. Get those guys a LOT more reps in the offseason. The other guy to add, during FA, is Derrick Mason if it is at all possible. Not sure what his status is, but with what's going on in Baltimore, he's GOT to be ready to come home.
