Tennessee Titans Morning Links: Hitting Peyton Manning Offends People? Edition

by August West on Jan 28, 2010 9:48 AM CST in Tennessee Titans Links

After raising ticket prices a few bucks last year, the Titans have opted to hold prices steady this year. The hold will keep the Titans' tickets among the cheapest in the NFL.

Gregg Williams went on the local sports talk station 104.5 saying he wants his defense to hit Peyton Manning like they did Brett Favre. This upsets Mike Florio (a few days late, Mikey, no?) because Peyton's dress for the Super Bowl is supposed to be really, really pretty.

Congratulations are in order for Kevin Mawae for his inclusion in the All-Decade teams for the Aughts. Mawae's name is an early leak (Paul K has more AFC South players who made the cut), and the full team will be announced on Sunday on, where else, ESPN.

Gary Glenn of Titans Online checks-in with CJ2K at the Pro Bowl. Nothing spectacular or ground-breaking here, but at least the guys are having fun.

More complaining about the Pro Bowl, but at least the practices sound fun...

Eastern Washington alum and Titans stud Michael Roos donated $500,000 to his alma mater for a red synthetic turf on their football field. The brightly colored field will be the first red one in the nation... not gimmicky at all, I swear.

No Titans notes here, but there are plenty of notable notes in this week's round-up of PFW blind items.

I seriously doubt we take a RB in the draft this year, but here's a good read on the progress of USC back Stafon Johnson since his horrific weight room injury during the season. It's amazing that doctors have completely cleared him to play after 275 lbs. dropped straight on his throat just a few months ago. It's hard not to root for the kid after something like that.

It looks good...

for Mawae that he was voted on the deade team by the same people that vote for Hall of Fame entry. Of course by the time he is eligible a lot of the voters will have changed, but it still adds weight to his case.

peyton getting hit

Very few things bring me more joy than watching manning take a hit. I hope the saints make peyton spent most his time in super bowl on his back.

A lot of us

were pretty upset when the ratbirds took a similar stance with Chris Johnson last year. I find Greg Williams’s comments pretty low-quality. Stuff like this is just going to lead to more rules about hitting qbs.

Hitting

And intentionally twisting a players’ ankle at the bottom of the pile after the whistle because your fatass 14 cheeseburger eating mouthbreathing coach told you to cause he is running all over you are two completely different things.

Note:

BBS can be found bitching that Mawae is in the all decade list over Saturday here:

JESUS CHRIST

there is so much wrong with this post that I could probably right a 5000 word rebuttal but I figured it’d be a waste of time since there is no way I can convince those humps anything different.

Do you mind if we dance with your dates?
