our overall DVOA ranking is very close to our average power ranking. That would seem to validate the two numbers and indicate that our 0-5 record is no fluke. It also indicates that I was very wrong in thinking, until the Jags game, that this was largely bad luck, injuries, and a few bad calls. Mea culpa. I have adjusted my position accordingly.

Gives a rather different look as to why the Titans are 0-5. I just think the 1st picture caught my attention the most.

Since Denver had success with their version of the Wildcat, obviously McDaniel’s pretermined that NE had a weakness to exploit using certain formations and plays.

Is it too much to expect that our offensive planning this week might look to exploit those weaknesses as well?

Will we see VY in the Wildcat? Will we see CJ taking direct snaps?

is nobody who can say what he was thinking as he went out to play. I am not defending him, I am just pointing that out. This is not as obvious as the reluctance to play last year. That was clear cut, this is just speculation and that is all.

to be made all over the place. its gonna be a tough tough game this week going up to toms place, regardless if hes struggling hes still tom brady, and nothing more than a tune up game with rookie corners trying to defend against him(wish that happened with KC and the colts D, that was wishful thinking) and its just going to make it harder on hope and griff having to make sure their corners are not getting done up. put in VY (no S*hit right) and let him audition for another team that will appreciate him, that wont use the BS that he quit on the team as their excuse (it was brought out that KC quit on his team too, forgot who brought it up please let yourself be known, but nobody remembers that when VY’s in the discussion) and then he can go to a team that i can be ok with beating the titans (just how it wasnt so painful when the ravens beat us b/c mcnair was over there). and everybody plz hold their “your not a fan b/c your rooting for a team to beat us” speech, blah blah blah. something needs to be done with the whole running game distribution, we need to go back to smash mouth running, and last time i checked that was LW’s nickname right??? b/c teams are catching dash, and theres no power there to get out of the tackle. we need more stunts on the d line, get the OL going somewhere’s else and have KVB come thru the inside. fish should have never gave the reigns completely to cecil, he should have been calling the plays from the get go with cec getting some calls here and there, all in all it should have been a “watch and learn process”. with all that being said, i will never stop rooting for this team, they have always possessed the heart and toughness under fish that really gets my attention. no matter how many losses we have i can always say that we played with heart, sometimes thats not enough (play calling, wrong personnel, etc), but im still optimistic that we return to our reg form in the near future.

and plz w/ all the rebuilding process bs, not many teams rebuild the season right after we won 13 games. (thanks to defense, NOT collins, get his ass on the bench so he can get ready for next year…were forced to find out.)
