Loser: Kevin Pamphile, RG

Kevin Pamphile has done fine for the last two games. He is playing exactly how you would imagine a fringe-starter at guard playing, however that isn’t keeping the Tennessee Titans coaching staff from checking out their other options.

There are times where he looks good, whether he is sustaining a run block down the field or holding up well in pass protection. So at first glance he seems like the guy right?

Then you go back and focus specifically on him and man, there are some tough plays out there. He ends up on the ground way too often and at times Jack Conklin had to stay in for an extra half second to make sure Pamphile got his block before taking care of his own responsibility.

Again, I am not saying that Pamphile is better or worse than we thought he would be, but the fact that he isn’t taking over a wide open position battle against Jamil Douglas with Nate Davis injured is a problem.
