It would kind of suck to be a team like Tennessee. You have the best RB in the game so you have to resort to the least effective way to score. It caps how good your team can be. But you have no choice but to run your offense thru him. Tannehill is Ryan Fitzpatrick if he doesn't rely on that play action passing system.
Reminds me of having Alex Smiff. You know you'll be good. But you know you wont be good enough. [Reply]

Barkley is clearly very good, but it's difficult to truly assess what he's got going on while he's playing for such a shitty team.
At this point, I'd probably put him in the second tier with guys like Dalvin Cook, Josh Jacobs and Joe Mixon. I guess I'd prob throw Aaron Jones in this second tier as well. [Reply]

Well. You have to best utilize the talent you’ve been given.
Not every team can have a Mahomes. That’s why he’s special. The Titans are doing it right. [Reply]

Who were they going to get that was better for their system? It’s still a business. You have to attract fans, you have to keep winning. What would you have done? [Reply]

If the goal is to win a Super Bowl, you don't build your offense around a RB and play action. Especially when your defense isn't great. [Reply]

I get that. But if you don’t have a Mahomes, you still have to be competitive and keep winning. What they should be doing he looking for a better QB than Tannehill in the draft. Like the chiefs did with Alex Smith. [Reply]

The problem is that they gotta pay Henry now. I'm just not a fan of building around a RB. Not in 2020. [Reply]
