Harold Landry doing what Harold Landry does: put heat on the QB.





And there's more that I didn't gif. The guy was flying around the edge the entire game.

For the PFF heads:

Rookie edge defender Harold Landry really stood out in his debut, earning a handful of pressures. As a whole, the Titans were relentless with their pass-rush, as they kept Deshaun Watson uncomfortable in the pocket throughout the game.

Outside of those two hits he managed to put up nothing on the stat sheet.

Stats never tell the full story. It's why you'll rarely ever see me reference stats.

Always rely on the tape. The tape never lies. As I stated, he had more rushes that I am tired to gif right now. But Landry was excellent.

Meanwhile Pettis is running the wrong routes, dropping passes and fumbling. 1 catch.

The worst part is that we could of probably had Landry and Pettis if we weren't so eager to trade up for Pettis. I don't think other teams saw him as the third best WR.

I have no issues with Pettis. There were other means of trading up to get Landry.

What irks me is the argument that Landry is a "one-trick pony." This is a weak argument because the overwhelming majority of pass rushers in the NFL don't have one dependable move. How many years have we been waiting for Armstead, Eli, Lemonier and the rest of this poor pass-rush group from the last couple years to develop ONE move with which they can win? Let alone one as devastating as Landry's freakish ability to shrink the arc. Landry is only going to get better and better with coaching because his "one trick" is so devastating that it leaves tackles vulnerable to easy counters.

Health was a legit concern with Landry; Talent was not.

You know what will really sting? If OBO becomes the player we envisioned for the Rams.

Right there with you....figures we're right about the guy who we didn't draft but possibly wrong on the guy we did :(

The good news is that next year's draft is pass rusher a plenty.

Haha, yes. I only bring up Pettis b/c of the compensation comparison. Nothing against him personally; he's OK with good upside but probably way down the line of team needs compared to ER.

I probably shouldn't compare the two but it will be fun to watch as time goes on.

Not sure what your issue is with the kid...your bias has definitely been showing but would you say our WRs have been impressive?

I wanted Landry as much as the next guy but nothing we can do about it now. We needed WR, IMO not as much as edge but clearly we had Pettis ranked high and I can see why. Not sure why you want to pretend he's sucking cuz the guy makes rookie mistakes.
