Watching Minshew is so frustrating.

Not nearly as annoying as Minshew.

You can say that again

Ebukam was a homerun signing

He’s just not good enough to be a starter.

Great backup, not starting material.

Puck 12-03-2023 03:31 PM

Wow Minshew is really playing bad

Waste of that big flea flicker play.

Chromeburn 12-03-2023 03:33 PM

Minshew is the most skittish QB in the pocket. He just has no feel for pressure.

Hoopsdoc 12-03-2023 03:33 PM

Take a shot to Pierce.

ChaosTheory 12-03-2023 03:35 PM

That low hit on Downs is more dangerous than the bullshit they typically flag.

CletusPyle 12-03-2023 03:35 PM

Normally I would like to see us take a shot to the endzone, but with Minshew, I say kick it!

Spike 12-03-2023 03:35 PM

Just kick the field goal now. I don't trust Miinshew.

Spike 12-03-2023 03:37 PM

That was one of Minshew's better throws today.

Hoopsdoc 12-03-2023 03:37 PM

Watching Minshew play gives me anxiety.

This is what it’s coming to. Then some victims receiver will get his leg broken or knee torn and there will be another rule change.

I think Chopped called him Carson Minshew earlier....fits like a glove today!

Probably not. Most of those plays are on shorter crossing routes, not bombs down the sideline which is where they want the flags so the ball advances rapidly for increased scoring. In fact, Roger is probably pissed every time a team throws a shallow cross, especially if caught, more seconds off the clock, lower scoring game. Thus if dudes get blown up knees, good, less likelihood teams will try those passes.

Hoopsdoc 12-03-2023 03:41 PM

Colts have 18 yards rushing.

They have to get Moss going. They’re not going to win relying on Carson Minshew.

I'm going to try to make you feel a little bit better about that.

As it turned out, we still may have wound up the same had Minshew not fumbled the ball away ......


When Minshew fumbled, it was 3rd-and-goal from the 4 yardline. There is a pretty good chance that we would have only gotten a field goal out of it. The Titans were pinned deep in their own territory after the fumble. Our defense came through, and forced them to punt out of their own end-zone. Subsequently, we would up with great field position, and got those 3 points anyway.

In fact, in a weird way it may have worked out better for us. If Minshew had not fumbled and Gay had kicked the field goal at that time, the Titans would have very likely started their next possession with better field position than they had after the fumble ...... and if they had, they may have gotten a couple of 1st downs and added a field goal of their own just before halftime. And then the score would have been 20-13, instead of 17-13.

It's too bad Evan Hull got injured, this would be a time for him to shine!

Finally caught up to the end of the first half.

1) I'm not sure what the hand wringing is about with the pick and fumble. What was Steichen going to challenge? If it was really a fumble, Blackmon recovered and then fumbled the ball away. If it was really a pick, he made the pick and then fumbled the ball away. Either way possession was changed and it's first down Titans. Sucks, really bad luck, but so it goes sometimes.

2) Minshew doesn't look great and has totally sucked at times, but at the same time he's a backup QB that has been thrust into the starter position for pretty much the whole season. It's not usually a recipe for success, and it's not like anyone thought the dude was another Steve Young waiting in the wings or something. Still, I wish he'd be safer with the ball.

3) Only being down 4 with how bad this team has played and getting the ball to start the 2nd half is pretty damn good. Plus here's a coaching staff who actually makes adjustments. I don't know if they'll win, but I'm not feeling horrible right now.

It's true, but look at some of these boxes they're looking at.

Minshew hit that bomb to Pierce early and TEN still doesn't give a shit. They still want Minshew to beat them.

I don't want to beat a dead horse, but very questionable he completed the catch on the pick (if it was a pass....and it was!)

CletusPyle 12-03-2023 03:50 PM

In case nobody else noticed....Carrie Underwood is hot as fuck!:D

At least take a look, for fucks sake.

As far as I know, they never showed a close look at the recovery/int. I am confident it hit the ground.

It wasn’t a fumble for sure. His arm was going forward. It’s the Brady tuck rule. That’s a forward pass if his arm is moving forward.

And it was.

ChoppedWood 12-03-2023 03:55 PM

Pittman has been enormous so far.

A lot better than Taylor Swift

CletusPyle 12-03-2023 03:59 PM

Pierce is getting open, Carson needs to let him run under it, it's there!

ChoppedWood 12-03-2023 04:01 PM

Wheeeew that was close as shit!

CletusPyle 12-03-2023 04:04 PM

A few more passes like that and I will quit calling him Carson!

Spike 12-03-2023 04:04 PM

Atta boy Pittman.

Oline is hanging in there today.

CletusPyle 12-03-2023 04:06 PM

Pittman is a beast!:D

Spike 12-03-2023 04:06 PM

Just keep throwing to Pittman. He's always open.

Spike 12-03-2023 04:07 PM

Glad we have Moss.

DragonTails 12-03-2023 04:07 PM

Stop running up the middle down here. Qb keep it

Terrible play calling inside the 10!
