That's two solid outing from green from a YPC standpoint. They should feed him more.

Hey coach!!! If you need 1 yard I'll get you 1.5. If you need 4 yards, I'll get you 1.5.

They only ran what 11 times total? I think Sankey will overtake Greene at some point in the season as #1. Not every rookie can learn everything they need to know start right away. He's a hold for me but I could see why someone with short benches might be tempted to drop him.

That had to hurt....How long until you step up and say you were wrong on the Sankey call?

Started him and won (luckily for me). I had no better option...
He ain't getting the chances yet. It will happen... Yesterday's loss might help encourage this change???

Everyone keeps bashing Greene, but he's looked decent with his carries and has been effective. Sankey hasn't.

You don't based a decision on such a small sample size. Greene is who he is. There is enough data to know that. He's not a threat to break anything long, nor is he worth anything in the passing game. McCluster is a fumble/injury waiting to happen. Sankey will takeover eventually. He might not give up the job for years when he does.

He's Greene's backup. McCluster will be a part of the offense regardless.
With Greene playing well it's going to be difficult for Sankey to pass him.
x 1,000!
through three games, McCluster has been on the field for a series here n there. When they seem to want to score in a hurry he is in the game. In week one it was a no huddle, but since then there's been urgency so he's back there. Rest of the game, he doesn't play RB much. This would be nice rest time if Sankey or Greene established themself as the main back

It won't last forever. Tennessee isn't good enough to let mediocre to poor talent stand in the way of a rookie with upside.

Agreed. This is thirst game I really got to watch Sankey and he looked like the clear best RB in Tenn. Footwork or not, it seems he should be playing more. I'm not sure why Wiz is so obsessed with it considering the other options are pretty poor.

Seriously Whisenhunt? He just averaged 6 ypc for you on 10 carries. The footwork can't be that bad can it? Does he want him to average 10 plus ypc.
I mean it may not be perfect, but neither is Rivers throwing motion. Let's see what this rookie can do coach.

In a game that provided little to be encouraged about, one good development for the Tennessee Titans in Sunday’s loss at Cincinnati was the second-half play of running back Bishop Sankey.
We saw six carries for 20 yards in Kansas City, and against Dallas he carried just twice for 3 yards.
But against the Bengals, he received 10 carries for 61 yards, an effort that should get him more looks in games to come.
He was especially impressive on the Titans' first drive of the third quarter, when he gained 18, 4, 9, 9, 2 and 22 yards on consecutive plays. The last of those was erased because of a hold by left guard Andy Levitre. The Titans looked to pass on the next three plays, starting with first-and-20, and got a 6-yard gain from Justin Hunter, an incompletion for Delanie Walker and a 5-yard sack of quarterback Jake Locker.
Sankey said a quicker pace for the offense helped.
"We picked the tempo up coming out at halftime, picked the tempo up with no huddle," he said. "We were just getting some good blocks with good creases and we [were] just rolling with it. We had some momentum and it seemed like we had a drive there for a second there. Unfortunately we stalled out in the end. So that’s pretty much how the success went coming out in the second half."

Funny how Silva is now praising Sankey after being so low on him pre-draft.

So much nonsense. I called Silva out on it back then. And he proceeds to block me. How are you gonna block someone who is right?

" Titans | Bishop Sankey set for more snaps? Tue Sep 23, 09:16 PM
Tennessee Titans RB Bishop Sankey was on the field for a season-high 27 snaps in Week 3, and head coach Ken Whisenhunt said Sankey's play will dictate his future snap totals. 'He's got good vision, and he looks to have good movement skills,' Whisenhunt said. 'What I didn't like is attention to detail with him. If he can get the attention to detail better, his reps will increase.'
Footballguys view: The team is set to turn over more time to Sankey. He's a good (not great) talent, and the rookie can contribute as a runner or receiver out of the backfield. If he starts getting that larger role, Sankey could play like a low-end RB2 or flex play for fantasy owners."
Sankey is on the rise. Buy low while you still can.

Whisenhunt seems to dig a little when people are flying high. It's like it's his way to keep them improving.
What I understood, he thought Sankey was giving away what the play was but really it was done. They had a great idea to combat Cincy's blitzing with a delayed handoff out of the shotgun to the RB. Cincy kept pinning their ears back to get Jake and were totally out of position so Sankey averaged like 9 yards per carry for 5-6 in a row. Cincy stopped blitzing and that was it. I don't think it had to do with Sankey giving anything away, it just lost it's luster.

Silva is the only guy that has ever blocked me on twitter. If you even question him, he blocks you. His problem is he takes an opinion, then tweets about it 100 times. How many tweets did he have dogging Gio before the season? At least 50.
He seems like an ok guy on the podcast, but on twitter he's weird. Tweets way too much.
