Exactly. If we can't get our run game started, its gonna be a long day. When the game plan switchs to Jimmy throwing it 90% of the time, it doesn't go well

Foreman was nursing a very sore foot toward the end of the Steelers' game. Heavily taped. Pure adrenalin. He may not be a full go.

This could be one of the great victories in club history. 9-6 puts us in a great spot with 10 days before we host Houston. Great shot for 10-6. This could be our year and tonight we could go a long way to punching the playoff ticket.

Julio Jones hasn't done s**t all season and seems to get hurt anytime he does play
yup....won't be surprised if he injures his hammy again by the 2nd quarter
I'm surprised he's even playing.

Zach Cunningham will be replacing David Long at LB. Better run defender but not nearly as good in pass defense or blitzing. Long was very good blitzing and PD. Room for Kittle although he will have a safety on him much of the time.
Their two safeties are the best pair in the league. Very good in run defense and above average in PD.

Might be more to get the SF defense thinking. I mean with our corners, I probably would to.

Not a woman hopefully
This incident is from 2016. Sounds like he was protecting a relative.
Yeah, some young girl SAID some things to his relative...so he beat her to the ground. Hardly "protecting".

Could we put Ward at CB? Just don't know who we can put at safety for Ward. Just don't trust a rookie for big games like this.

Short week, road game with a 2 time zone change, and an opponent who is in a dogfigtht for their playoff lives (much like SF)......this is a tough game. SF is probably the better team, but this can go either way.

Titans seem real desparate. I can see A.J. Brown coming back from a chest injury that occurred in week 11. However, Julio just re-injured his hamstring this past Sunday.

Titans missing their starting LT and LG. Bosa should have a good game.

theyre 5-1 with a healthy O-line and a healthy Henry
Their o-line hasn't been good at any point this season.
Derrick Henry's impact is highly overrated *this season*. He's good, but he was only averaging 4.3 YPA, less than his replacements since the injury.
Over 900 yards and 10 TDs in 8 games is highly overrated?
On 218 Attempts. 4.3 yards a carry, 2.7 yards a carry in his last two games. His top two replacements have combined for over 5 yards a carry. They've had almost 700 yards rushing in their last 4 games, more than they had in Henry's last 5 games.
And that last game he played 80% of it with a BROKEN FOOT....
And his replacements in those last 4 games gave them a 1-3 record, the only win coming against the Jaguars...
Before his injury, Henry was on pace to break the single season rushing AND touchdown records! 4.3 YPC against constant stacked boxes and defenses keying on him almost every play. If you don't understand his impact, you don't understand football.

Wilson is balling right now - feed it to him 25+ times. The passing game will follow. Let's get it!
