The entire defense gave up for a bit and then they played alright.
Gray kept tackling Taylor on runs up the middle after six yards and the announcers complimented him.
No! Meet him at the LOS and every yard from it should be less complimentary.
I'd give him that he was tackling and not letting him past him. Kudos for being well aware and looking like he belonged in his first action.
Sweat looked like the team MVP and I mean that when he was absent. The Pats stink without Brady or similar. The Titans good hungry journeymen DL were awful when he was injured.
The ILBs regularly had OL on them and it was fast. Brush aside Coburn and get an ILB. They all stunk then.
I had a difficult time seeing the D presnap live yesterday as happens sometimes with the camera view.
I saw Williams dart in fast a few times and not make a play. It happens, whatever. I'd see him chasing but without presnap view I have no context.
I'll have to report back after I rewatch.
For next year- I wouldn't bother. I've said all year how unreasonably deep they are. If Gray starts next week, he'll be there 7th or 8th starter at ILB and they all have some merit plus they loved Chance Campbell who had a great preseason then went on IR.
Better GMs would trade some and improve elsewhere.
"It's good he had them. They needed them" is a debatable point.
Another example- The Titans have 9 OL and have had 16. All but two have played tackle.
The GM has weird types he rolls with. How about adding a guard that plays guard? An OLB that plays OLB?
I can't imagine a new GM with a ton of ILBs on his 53 and certainly not all starter worthy.
I would simply avoid their ILBs or take a shot and hope if the FF roster is especially deep.

Is Gray a start week 17? I am always looking to get better at my LB3 slot. Q Williams just dont cut it anymore, and Speights is just okay.
My site doesnt even list Williams for TEN, nor Charlies for IND. I put a bid for all my remaining FAAB money on Gray.

They signed Raekwon McMillan to the PS just in time to mess up the chance to see the younger players play.

That's the expected thought.
Hoping it's true.
McMillan timing is so odd.
I'm never gonna downplay keeping the roster fluid but I'm concerned for the young guys playing time
Long failed his physical. A K was signed not an ILB.
When asked about Jerome Baker who they said they were sitting for the rest of the season- coach said it's all hands on deck at ILB. (PK)
Gray and Williams were very active on rewatch. Williams does look fast and I'm still obsessed with the bad 40 time. He caught Taylor down field a week after catching Jamar Chase. How is he 4.61?
They both need to be coached. Williams is sooo eager to make a play he flies everywhere and sometimes you can tell he didn't think first. Gray thinks too long. I'm hollering go, go, GO! He recognized a screen and was there instantly to wreck it. Excellent speed then but I really didn't see noticable speed from him.
As I said earlier, the DL was horrible when Sweat's eye got poked and he sat. The rookies were dealing w a nightmare scenario and I was impressed with effort.
I meant to look up Harrell's snaps. It seemed to me Key and Landry were easily blocked and lacked fight when Sweat was out. Harrell seemed to play more and like the other rookies "die trying."
There's a high number of plays that the rookies are the ones chasing down field and not quitting as coaches say.
Hooker was again chucked aside like nothing a few times. I wonder if he lost "it" this year and should be traded. The rag doll look is so bad. He still looks darn good otherwise. It's just...ya gotta play him differently and re-coach that stuff in drills next year. Second game in 5? weeks that he was oh so easily tossed aside

Gifford cleared protocol that quickly?
Is Gray going to be the other LB this week?

Gifford missed last week, so he's clearing from the concussion he sustained against CIN in Week 15.
Not sure about Gray.
It didn't seem quick to me but concussions have been wonky all year for predicting. It's probably a good thing for the players just not for FF
It hasn't been said.
More quotes about getting the youngsters time but coach also said Baker is suddenly up.
FWIW
Cosell said he saw some good things from Gray. The game isn't too big for him and that was exactly what the Titans needed to learn.
He mentioned Williams speed again shows on tape (my obsession) but he didn't watch him that much. He's been watching and he can see him struggle with the switch from safety and then thrive and he's just gotta get time to acclimate himself to the position switch.
What he did see against the Colts was bad gap discipline or the rookies hit the wrong gap. He talked about Sweat's absence and other DL not playing well too. He mentioned a DL brushed aside and where's the gap and radio host talk back n forth.
Much better worded version of what I said
Texas man suing Titans cornerback L'Jarius Sneed over December shooting at car lot
A Texas man who says Titans cornerback L’Jarius Sneed or his personal assistant shot at him while he was sitting inside a Mercedes-Benz in December is suing Sneed for at least $1 million.

Sneed arrested and being sued.
My fan experience has taught me that this won't be adjudicated til next year.
Football is beyond big in Texas and I never expect any player to be found guilty regardless if they did the crime.
My non lawyer self thinks they'll have hearings that will delay this for reasons I don't wholly understand and ...I'm not usually wrong with the above thinking.
Despite the PFF grade, he only allowed half the passes his way to be completed and for never more than fifty yards. He was as advertised.
