Tennessee Titans Daily Links: Big Kick Rob(bed) Edition
Rob Bironas and Mike Munchak spoke yesterday about Bironas getting robbed of a Pro Bowl spot he clearly deserved.
Boclair takes an extended look at Mike Munchak's habit of hiring coaches who had notable college and professional playing careers. Munch has also focused on hiring coaches who rely on positivity over negativity in the locker room, and encourage an atmosphere of camaraderie and team-focus over identifying who the franchise super stars are at any given time.
Jason Jones makes PFF's list for the worst performances in week 16.
David Climer essentially repackages David Boclair's column from yesterday about the focus of the offense being turned downfield due to CJ's injury and Jamie Harper being just awful.
Jared Cook explained that awkward TD celebration from Sunday, which started out looking like an Atomic Elbow off the top ropes but ended-up as some attempt to mimic jumping into a pool. Needless to say, it's been fodder for a lot of locker room ribbing.
Chris Johnson is still being held out of practice to let his ankle heal, but Munch and CJ say he's walking and running much better this week than he did last week... not that any of this means that we'll gain more than 30 yards on the ground on Sunday.
Speaking of CJ, Mike Tainer brings the funny by imagining a beleaguered Rex Ryan talking to the press about CJ & co.:
The Titans
Chris Johnson is a tough running back to prepare for. He spends so much time running sideways, I replaced Titans game film with a documentary on fiddler crabs and no one noticed. I always warn my defenders, watch out for Johnson because you can stuff him for no gain on 20 carries, but then he will gouge you for 6 yards on No. 21. That Matt Hasselbeck sure is a survivor. He reminds me of the G.I. Joe action figures that Rob and I used to melt over the campfire. I love cornerback Cortland Finnegan. That guy has the impulse control of a bear trap. He makes Ndamukong Suh look like Deepak Chopra. Besides Finnegan, the Titans' best defensive player is Karl Klug, who I think was the boxer from Mike Tyson's Punch-Out with the red mustache and lederhosen.
The Tennessean has 5 Hot Topics.
Paul K points out that MJD has had one of the better years that most NFL fans won't notice or remember.
Speaking of the Jags, no player in their franchises' history gashed the Fisher-era Titans like Fred Jones Taylor, and now the retired running back is lobbying for Fish to coach the Jags next season.
Don Banks names his top NFL stories of 2011.
Former head of NFL officials and current TV commentator Mike Pereira took some hilarious shots at Jon Gruden, and I'm sure there are a boatload of people in the NFL who would agree.

There are 32 scenarios that influence the sixth seed in the AFC playoffs. The #Titans get the spot in just four of them.

Your math is wrong
There are 5 games that impact the 6th seed. In each game there are 2 possibilities (not counting ties), home team wins or away team wins. Doing the math, 2^5=32 different outcomes of the 5 games that impact our playoff lives.
You weren’t taking into account the scenarios where we lose.
Teams I hate, in order of magnitude:
1a. Jaguars, 1b. Texans, 1c. Ravens, 4. Chargers, 5. Colts, 6. Cowboys, 7. Patriots, 8. Jets, 9. Rams, 10. Steelers
Thanks, math
"Do the Titans have a miracle left in them in what has been a magical season to this point? If they do, they need it now. Christie kicks it high and short. 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!

This is also assuming that the outcomes of the games are mutually exclusive,
and I’m not entire sure that is the case. But I’ll get off my math soapbox now. The curse of being a math major.

In my opinion there are only 10 ways teams can get into the playoffs.

Out of those ten there are other possibilities.
Math never lies and math isn’t about opinion.
For the Titans we need at least: Titans win and Bengals win. Then we need 2 of the Jets, Raiders, Broncos to win. If Jets win we need either the Broncos to win or the Raiders to win. But we also get the spot if both the Broncos and Raiders lose with the Jets winning. So that’s 3 possibilities right there with Broncos winning, Raiders winning, and neither winning. If the Jets lose then we need both the Broncos and Raiders to win, now we have 4 ways we can get into the playoffs. Out of 32 different combinations of wins and losses in those five games.
Also if the Bengals win then there are 16 ways the other games can go, but they don’t matter anymore so we don’t list them.

Yeah, but if the Bengals lose to the Ravens, then 22 of those 32 possibilities go away
And, if the Titans beat the Texans then an additional 5 possibilities go away, leaving the Titans as the 6th seed in 4 out of 5 possibilities.
So, essentially, we need the Titans to win and the Bengals to lose, and the Titans will have a pretty good shot of making the playoffs.
This isn’t impossible at all…

this is suprising
i wonder what he can do when he is completely health
And why are we so quick to pass judgment on Jamie Harper?
He didn’t have a great rushing average, but neither did the rest of the team (Seeing how Jacksonville is 11th against the rush) Plus, with his 1 TD he’s already accumulated 1/4th of CJ’s TD for the season (obviously that is nothing to gloat about). My point is, how are we going to say Harper is any worse then CJ when he’s only had one “start” ?

How about we give up on the whole CJ as a number one thing..
Yeah we paid him too much money, whatever. But I think we could have a decent three headed monster like the Giants did a couple years ago and like the Saints have now. And even the Patriots to a lesser degree…
CJ for the speed guy, like Sproles for the Saints, Bradshaw for the Giants, and Woodhead for the Patriots
Harper as the big back, like Ingram/Ivory for the Saints, Jacobs for the Giants, and the rookie for the Patriots, I forget his name
Ringer for the good at everything but not spectacular at any one thing guy, like Thomas for the Saints, Ware for the Giants, and BGE for the Patriots

Actually, we keep on using the 'no offseason' thing as a logical reason
to not cast harsh judgement on guys like Palmer and Munchak…
Well, we had the lockout, CJ had a holdout that caused him to also miss preseason, he’s playing for an OC that always has had bad running games, in a league where the defenses against him always game plan just for him, with a bad hammy and now a bad ankle.
Personally, I’m going to judge CJ on what he does next year. This is an off year for him and really, we shouldn’t have expected much different.

You can't compare Fitz and CJ in this situation.
Fitz is a great wide receiver in a pass-happy league playing 4 games in the NFC West.
CJ is a home-run hitter that’s not hitting home runs… and whenever he tries to give it his all instead of taking what he can in front of him, he gets stuffed behind the LOS or drops the ball.

Have you seen Fitz QBs? What has worked in Fitz’s favor the last 2 years? and he still produces.
Teams KNOW where the ball is going because there is literally no one else to pass to and he still produces…
How is this any different?

I see a lot of excuses there.
1. Is CJ the only RB impacted by the lockout? How come other backs have better averages and more yards? Did Maurice Jones-Drew miss the lockout? The lockout was an excuse for the first few games. It is not anymore.
2. CJ’s fault.
5. They didn’t gameplan for him before? And are gameplanning MORE for him in the year we actually have a competent pass game?
I will give you 3 and 4 as contributing factors to his demise, but CJ is responsible for his own production. I guess I expect a playmaker to make plays. Oops…

I love how you immediately say that I am making excuses
then put quotations around the “facts”… then agree with me on one of them.
You shouldn’t have expected more production from him this year because money doesn’t magically make you play well. If that was true the Eagles wouldn’t be out of the playoffs at this point.
That big contract inflated expectations for CJ in a year that, really, it was more likely that he DID have this sort of shitty year than not.
Now, here we are, he had the shitty year that he was most likely going to have for a whole load of reasons including his own actions.
If he continues to play shitty next year after we have an actual offseason and an actual offense, then the blame rests solely on him. But this year, under these circumstances… it’s really not surprising.

Fotu
While I actually agree with parts of your argument, it seems like you are not presenting it in the proper light. There are several circumstances that have lead to CJ having an off year that cannot be wholly attributed to him.
It is true that Palmer has a terrible history with the run game. It is also true that our interior oline is ranked dead last (or second to last) in DVOA rankings. As well the other RB’s on the field have not done any better with the same unit which shows that the running game as a whole is broken.
At the same time, CJ held out because he wanted the prime time dollars calling himself the best playmaker in the league. So even though there are several factors outside of CJ’s control, it was his fault for the elevated expectations that come with his words and the contract that he signed.
"I can name 31 other starting running backs that would have made that play" 104.5 the zone
As well the other RB’s on the field have not done any better with the same unit which shows that the running game as a whole is broken.
I think this is because the other RB’s suck.
aaaaaaand we're back, contribootin' some more!
Not that I disagree
but the point is still valid that two other running backs have had little to no success behind the same oline.
CJ has been terrible for most of the year, but I’m not one to make excuses for the three oline that constantly seem to be 4 yards behind the line on running plays.

It really is the most perplexing thing I've seen this year.
I still can’t understand how we have two hall of fame lineman for coaches, both come from the days of true smash mouth football, and yet they have been utterly atrocious this year at run blocking.
At least we have pass blocking down.
"I can name 31 other starting running backs that would have made that play" 104.5 the zone
And after my shilacking of Palmer the other day,
I would like to say that he had one hell of a game plan last week.
The one thing I have noticed this year from our game plans is the consistent inconsitency of our offense. If our pass game is in a groove then the run game is off and vice versa.

The thing that has irritated me, until this last game, about Palmer this year
is that it has taken him this long to abandon the run.

Last in the league with a Titans rushing attack - I am starting to lean towards agreeing with you
although, we haven’t had this kind of passing attack with patch-work WRs since 2002 and #9. Something better happen to help fix our running game in the off-season, but are the days of the Fisherball-gone? I’d say it left with him when he was sent packing.

I agree with this; when Fisher was here Fisherball was the problem, no passing game, always running the ball regardless of score and killing clock time (which we were horrible at)
now we’ve updated to NFLs pass-happy offense, and we want to go back to Fisherball? No thanks.

Dude hasn’t had as many opportunities cause of the new rules, but one aspect of him as return man that I think is vastly under appreciated is his decision-making. For the most part, he does a great job of letting it go, making the fair catch and what not. What more do you want? Can’t help that he hasn’t had as many opportunities on kickoffs.

I want a returner who can make somebody miss
Mariani is only successful when the blocking sets up perfectly. And I’m fairly certain he makes boneheaded decisions constantly. Like the game last year when he didn’t just catch the damn punt, and not catching the kickoff against the Colts.
The kind of returner I want is not easy to find…..Pacman, Hester, Josh Cribbs. I am just making the point that I want an actual kick returner. Not just a player who runs behind blocking.
And the only reason we like Mariani is the returner before him was Ryan Mouton.

I like Mariani, he's been efficient. Made the pro-bowl his rookie year
yeah things have to go his way for him to take it to the house, but he pretty much always gets us above average yards on returns. Asking for Pacman, Hester, Cribbs type players are one in a million.

CJ might only get 30 yards
But that means he would have 1000 on the season!

I actually really really hope he doesn't get 1000.

We currently hold the 17th pick
Walter has us taking:
17. Cordy Glenn OG, UGA
52. Brandon Jenkins DE FSU
82. Sean Spence OLB Miami
I wouldn’t mind it if this class happened this way but I’m really intrigued by UNC WR Dwight Jones and Miami WR Tommy Streeter as 2nd round picks.

I think Dwight Jones is going to go late first.
Even if he drops to early second, I can’t see him being available at our pick. He would be an oustanding pick.

I have read a ton of draft sites
That have Dwight Jones going in the 2nd or 3rd round…I think there is just a ton of talent at WR this year, so I think we can get a very talented WR in the 2nd/3rd round (Jones, Marvin McNutt, Juron Criner, Streeter, etc).
My draft plan right now would be to see if DeCastro lasts until our pick, if so, then I would take him in the 1st round. If not, then I would try really hard to trade back in the late 1st round and get an extra pick in the late 2nd round or 3rd round. Then, you can start looking at another OG, FS, WR, or DE with those picks.

I LOVE that Marvin McNutt kid.
I’d take him in the second, even though he has a late 2nd/early 3rd grade.

If anyone is watching this bowl game, I'm sorry for this god awful OL play from FSU
then again, I should be used to it by now, watching the Titans.
