Titans need to consider having Ryan Tannehill on deck

To say that Marcus Mariota struggled in the team’s Thursday night game would be a massive understatement. He missed numerous easy throws throughout and played extremely timid when it came to letting it rip for the big play.

Hall of Fame quarterback Troy Aikman voiced his frustration throughout the game as Mariota consistently missed open targets when he wasn’t playing it safe for the easy check down.

We are beginning to approach a point where even the biggest Mariota supporters have to ask themselves how much longer are we going to accept this level of quarterback play? This was not a good outing for Mariota on a short week that already had a lot of Titans fans wondering about the future of No. 8.

The only thing the former Oregon product did on the evening was make more fans wonder what ever happened to the QB that was on the verge of stardom in 2016?

If this level of QB play continues for another week, It would not shock me one bit if we see No. 17 strut out there sooner rather than later for his opportunity to resurrect his career in two-tone blue.
