The Tennessee Titans That Deserve a Pro Bowl Vote

Photo

This post is just a friendly reminder to go out and vote for your favorite Titans for the Pro Bowl.  You can vote by clicking here.

Now I am not one of those people who thinks that you should just log on there and vote for every Titan because you are a fan*.  I believe in voting for guys that actually deserve to go.  Here are the guys that I think have earned your vote in the first 8 games:

  • Jason Jones- We said before the season that if Jones stayed healthy he would be a Pro Bowler.  Well he has stayed healthy so far, knock on wood, and is living up to the hype.  He only has 2 sacks so far, but he has been a disruptive force in the middle of the defense.
  • Jason Babin- Babin is just the latest in a long list of reclamation products under Jim Washburn.  SuperHorn called 12 sacks for him before the season started, and he is looking pretty smart as Babin has 7 sacks in 8 games.
  • Michael Griffin- Before the season started we were hoping that we would see 2008 Griff again, and we have so far.  Griff has 4 picks in the first 8 games and has been good in run support.
  • Chris Johnson- CJ2K hasn't put up the eye-popping numbers that he did last season, but he is still 3rd in the NFL in rushing yards and 1st in rushing TDs.

There is my list.  Anyone I missed?

*The obvious exception to this rule is Alterraun Verner, but unfortunately we cannot vote for him because he is not on the ballot.

Missed a b in Babin.....

Or quite possibly the most B.A. nickname ever? Bain seems fitting for the sack-sammich hungry DE. I think a case could have been made for KB before the injury since he was on a tear, but now that he’s out for a while he might have missed the boat.

VY?

he may not have the yards but does the rating count for anything?

Offensive line

hasn’t been as good this year. Normally Roos is a lock, but this year I think the guy to vote for is Jake Scott. He has always been solid and has been exceptionally so this season.

Tulloch also warrants some consideration. He has put up very nice numbers overall.

by Akalhar on Nov 6, 2010 12:23 PM CDT reply actions  

I disagree about Jake Scott.

He’s played better as of late, but early in the season, I think he was as much to blame for our woes as the other two interior linemen. Both tackles have been decent, but the whole line as a unit is hard to vote for, this year, for me.

Tully, on the other hand, needs to get the nod.

Gonna be fielded by Lorenzo Neal at the 25; he dishes it back to Wycheck; he throws it across the field to Dyson. 30, 40, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10, 5, endzone...touchdown, Titans! There are no flags on the field! It's a miracle! Tennessee has pulled a miracle! A miracle for the Titans!"

Cut checks

I have watched that video at least 50 times in the last week. I also have a portion of it as my ring tone.

Stephen Tulloch

He’s playing at a pro bowl level, in my opinion.

I was referring more to a seriously painful injury sustained recently, but now that you say it, Morgan is a better parallel.

Who'd you rather?

Ravens or Steelers? (Might get both)

I always go first half - coffee, second half - beer, because In LA, the games start at 10:00 a.m.

Haha, I don't know.

A lot can happen between now and the end of the season. We’ve got a team that’s capable of beating both.

Best kicker in the league.

I like the rest of the list.

You can see the difference in AFC vs NFC

In voting for QBs, I couldn’t select one NFC QB who really deserves to be in the Pro Bowl…I went with Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees, and Sam Bradford, but none of them (or any other NFC QB) have wowed me yet.

If the Titans were in the NFC, we would be sending a lot more guys to the Pro Bowl.

by shawneriksmith on Nov 7, 2010 10:03 AM CST reply actions  

Tully is 2nd in the league in tackles.

For a middle linebacker, there’s not really any other really significant stats. He should be a lock.

True,

But Keith should have been a lock on most years…. the voters just do not like us
