Tennessee Titans Daily Links: Hall To Help CJ Get His Groove Back Edition

Ball + ball = balls

Tennessee_titans_30x21 McCormick talks with Ahmard Hall about his suspension, and how he's looking to make up for the time lost by pushing CJ to do more. Over the past few months Johnson and Hall have been like ships passing in the night, but their built-up chemistry should mean they could get back in rhythm quickly.

Tennessee_titans_30x21 David Boclair chronicles the Titans' lackluster history of playing back-up Steelers QBs.

Tennessee_titans_30x21 PFF Re-Focuses on the Titans victory over the Browns, where they noted that Chris Johnson had a positive rating, despite another horrible game of run blocking by the O-line. Of course, the pass blocking was impeccable, so you can't get too mad at them.

Tennessee_titans_30x21 Get last night's episode of MCM Radio here. Even if you listened to the live show last night, you'll need to get it here to get the bonus content where Jimmy and I shared out thoughts on the legacy of Mike Heimerdinger.

Star-divide

Tennessee_titans_30x21 The new emphasis on size in the front seven has had an immediate impact on one key phase of the defense: we're one of the best teams in the league at stopping offenses on third-and-one and fourth-and-one situations. Several of those stops have been key, momentum changing stops. They'd become a deep sore spot over the past several years as our defensive line kept shrinking and shrinking with the departure of Big Albert.

Tennessee_titans_30x21 Piggy-backing on that thought: PFF keeps Jurrell Casey in the hunt for Rookie of the Year, as the giant DT continues to make a difference in the middle of the defensive line.

Tennessee_titans_30x21 Doesn't look like the Titans will sign a new DB this week.

Tennessee_titans_30x21 The Steelers are going all in for this game by burning the one week teams are allowed all season to practice in full pads twice in a single week.

Tennessee_titans_30x21 My guess is they're using their padded practices to stop plays like this from happening.

Tennessee_titans_30x21 Former Titans nickel back specialist Vincent Fuller has been signed by Jim Schwartz and the Lions. Fuller's play declined sharply under Chuck Cecil, so it'll be interesting to see if Fuller makes much of an impact now that he's paired with the coach that was most responsible for carving out his six season career.

Tennessee_titans_30x21 Mike Tanier of Football Outsiders delivers a piece for NBC Sports that looks at the unprecedented success rates we've seen from rookie WRs over the past few years.

this week, the main talking points were the Titans being ruhtarded because their team is named after a state, and because our team cam from somewhere else.

Not that it really matters, but if you want something to rant about...

Pete Prisco has the Steelers winning 27-14 and “…will get after the Titans on both sides of the ball.” Pete, you are aware we’re highly ranked in pass protection and they have a banged-up line and we have good defensive one right? Peter King can be aggravating, but Pete Prisco is my absolute most-hated NFL writer.

Beating by one day their own self-imposed deadline of not negotiating player contracts once the regular season begins, the Steelers signed Polamalu to a four-year, $36.5 million contract that includes a $10.55 million signing bonus — a deal that averages $9.1 million annually and makes Polamalu the highest-paid safety in the NFL.

but this is the guy who stormed out

because he thought he was getting low balled during training camp. unless the FO’s outlook on him has changed big time, it just seems unlikely.

Only way Finny could be more drama than CJ is if they try and franchise him

Don't think he'd start drama

Isn’t the franchise tag for CB over $10 mil next year? I think I read that in the comments yesterday

And he makes a little over $4 mil this year?

I don’t see him complaining about a $10 mil increase, even if it causes a long term uncertainty issue. That said, I don’t think we’d use it on him

We have another big matchup this week.

In addition to being Steelers week, this is also the week I kick Prattrick’s ass in the unofficial FF league we’re in.

ahhh Babin's twitter account... I hate twitter because of that man.
Guy at the NFL that decides on who and how much players get fined Stop being a puppet, if you want to protect QB’s, get better linemen

how does this have anything to do with ‘the guy’ that decides the fine numbers?

Babin, great job being the NFL sack leader… but you really can’t talk shit when your team isn’t winning… //Dream Team’d

I don’t blame Twitter. It’s just another medium for players to express themselves. If anything, I love it for the fact that it’s raw and uncensored since nobody thinks twice before posting and you can actually get a look in on their thoughts.

Sometime (especially in this case) i'd prefer not to know how stupid some people are.

Gotta be happy for Vincent Fuller

Hopefully he can be as good of a nickel back over there in Detroit as he was for us in his prime years. The guy can ball.
