Titan Sized Report: Business as Usual
By author
The Tennessee Titans offense bounced back after a disastrous 6 turnover debacle, with a solid effort that pounded the New York Giants into submission. Here’s a quick review of the Titan’s Week 3 performance on offense, including unit grades and selections of a “Titan” and “Terrible” player.
Wide Receivers and Tight Ends – B-
CJ2K is a beast. Few backs in this league are guaranteed to break a run at any second, but this man can and will do it every week for the foreseeable future. Javon Ringer could probably afford more carries, but it’s hard to imagine that CJ2K will face formidable run defenses every week.
Quarterback – B
No fumbles. No interceptions. And no ill-advised left-handed throws in the red zone. Also, VY was 4 for 4 with 48 yards and a touchdown on a drive that ultimately put the Giants away for good. Look for a breakout performance this week versus a very weak Denver Bronco passing defense that appears incapable of creating pressure.
Titan Player of the Week: Kenny Britt – I expect an encore performance this week, including a long touchdown catch.
Terrible Player of the Week: Jake Scott – Two holding penalties are inexcusable and drive-killing mistakes that are beneath a lineman of his caliber and seniority.
Overall Offense Grade – B
With almost 300 yards of offense and 27 points, this was an offensive performance the Titans can set as a benchmark for the rest of the season. The Titan defense is playing at such a high level right now, that this much offensive output should be enough to win against virtually any team in the league.
