Funchess did not look good today. Disappointing really.

The fact that he is listed as the number two receiver is based on where he got drafted. Also, the fact we traded other picks to get him. He plays like a JAG at best.

I hope shula does better during the season.  Nah, he probably will not.  But I can hope.

I've had high hopes on him after reading all the camp reports.  But sadly after this week and watching Tenn #4 WR they drafted in the 3rd.  Roast us worse and worse and worse each time we've faced him and watch our staff make zero adjustments on the 3 separate occasions we've faced them.  I'm think our own staff and DBs are quiet possibly the cause for the Funchess hype.

Kalil and Moton both looked good. In fact, the offensive line overall has been a pleasant surprise. In fact, other than backup LT I feel pretty good.

Mike Adams did not look impressive. Colin Jones and Teddy Williams both hopefully only see the field on ST

True, but we're talking about the Panthers.

Worley- got beat pretty easily 

Can you point to a few examples? On TEN's first two drives, I didn't see Worley beat on anything. I'll show a few examples:

I'm sure the first play you'll bring up is the Walker touchdown.

First of all, Worley guarding Walker was not his original assignment. Worley is playing two trap, meaning he jumps on flat routes that develop & Walker not on his "to guard" list. Adams was Walkers assignment.

Essentially, this was a pure mismatch of Adams vs Walker and Adams proved to be too slow on the play. Easy touchdown. Worley not at fault because that was never his assignment.

Panthers in man coverage with base defense to start off. Mariota throws a picture perfect pass to receiver who was covered very tightly by Worley.

On the play above, there was nothing the Panthers coverage could've done. Worley was all over his man in a perfect position to wrap and take him out of the play. Mariota just made an even better pass and play to his receiver. Nothing to blame our defense on here.

Panthers in base defense against a spread Tennessee look. Playcall cover 2. Mariota connects with his receiver for an easy reception.

This play here goes on our coverage rather than our defenders. Once again, the Panthers are running base defense. Although it is preseason and Luke's not in, that doesn't excuse the fact that running base defense against this style offense isn't going to work out.

One thing I will knock on Worley is not gaining enough depth on this play in the back. But even so, Worley would've likely been unable to do anything about this even in perfect position. A very tough assignment.

The Titans simply just spread and find themselves an opening in our coverage. Can't do much defensively in that personnel.

Hmm a lot of people not going to like this

[ncfan]

I didn't look at the exact matchup just the play overall of the guy getting wide open.  I'm putting 99% of the blame on the staff like I noted of how this week has gone.  There are gifs out there of the same thing happening day 1 scrimmage, then day 2 scrimmage same thing, then today.  Zero adjustments, while Tenn kept adjust each and every time they've faced us and you saw the end result.  They progressed while we regressed as the week went

I didn't get to see the game... can anyone tell me why people are saying Armah is a winner? He didn't show up on the score sheet and I would hope someone blocking wouldn't put them on the winners list.

 

 

also is it me or was our major problem this game miscommunication and major mistakes like rookie DE Hall going into the wrong gap allowing a huge run. Maybe it was just the game we needed to make our team realize we suck and need to get focused. Better now than in the regular season.
