RB LeGarrette Blount claimed by Tampa Bay
Bad move releasing him in my opinion. Who gets goal line carries now? Ringer? Hall? The Titans will probably pick up a veteran off the waivers in the next few days to fill the void.
Comments
Although I think Blount has a lot of potential...
With Johnson/Ringer, this isn’t a traumatic loss. The Titans need more of a special teams impact from a third string RB, or at least a better pass protector. I just hope this doesn’t come back to bite us down the road..

Its the new trend in the NFL
No one keeps a full-time goal line guy anymore. You pick someone up as a stop-gap solution and go from there. The era of specialist downhill runners ala Jerome Bettis seems to be over. A shame really. Coupled with all this protection for QBs football is going in an favourable direction IMO.
Sports Bar Waiter: Whoa your a big TItans fan. You from down South?
Me: Yeh, but much further south than that.
We could have just moved him to fullback and work on his pass protection?
The guy could definitely move the pile.

we better get a speedy back...
That can return kicks then I guess! Honestly I have no clue who we can bring in as a 3rd back!

Hahahaha.
Boy, joke of the day right there.
… Wait, are you being serious?

Williams and Mariani?
They are not capable returners?
What's the point of bringing
in a veteran within the next couple days? We gonna cut one of the LBs we just added to do so?
What we don't need
is 2 more special teamers over a 3rd hb

Cuz Ringer
has prove nothing as an NFL player

so why are you all butt hurt about losing
another guy who has “proven nothing in the NFL”?
The odds of
1 of 2 players that haven’t proved anything being successful are better than 1 of 1

We could probly
go back and forth on this for days… Agree to disagree on this move

Yeah, rothbard was against Blount from the beginning because he couldn't 'play special teams'.
I don’t know. The guy doesn’t seem to have his head on right.
Maybe Blount could correct it with a good hay-maker.
… Well at least the guy could bring us another good sequence of puns before he got grabbed.

"Who gets goal line carries now?"
Same guy as last year.
