Titans QB Mariota named AFC player of week for his debut

Last season, Tennessee also opened the year with a road win and then fell with a major thud, losing 14 of the next 15 and the final 10 in a row.

“Don’t start that. Please, dear God, no buzz”, Lewan said Monday. “You are the best centerfielder I’ve ever seen”. “I”™ve been disappointed in the way I”™ve performed, especially ending the season previous year . He’s been very good with that. Did I feel more comfortable?

With the extra point moved back, it makes sense for more two-point conversions to be attempted.

In comparison to Winston, who threw a pick-six on his first pass as a pro and struggled throughout, Mariota’s performance stood out all the more. Meanwhile, the Titans should have won last year’s game and stand as a better team than they were that day.

The Bucs got blown out by the Tennessee Titans in their season opener, 42-14, with Titans rookie quarterback Marcus Mariota throwing four touchdowns in his debut. On other throws, Mariota was 8-of-11 for 95 yards and three touchdowns. I couldnt ask for a better situation.”.

Mariota and Winston have each played one game and one game only.

Marcus Mariota had a fantastic debut, but he should not be dubbed “Brady and Manning-like” just because he tore up an abysmal Buccaneers defense.

“Johnny”™s a great guy,” Mariota said during a conference call.

What allowed RG3 to flourish from the get-go was Washington offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan tailoring the system to the one his quarterback played in at Baylor. I don’t think so. “But the kid’s a football player”. He planned to use his speed to evade defenders in the pocket and put pressure on the defense by extending plays.

“Pettine said McCown is “making progress” but remains in the NFL”™s concussion protocol. “But it’s so basic, ‘” Hasselbeck said Wednesday. Longley was 22. His National Football League career ended when he was 24. He has endured soreness in his elbow and forearm caused by tendinitis since his freshman year at Texas A&M. He threw two touchdown passes including a game-winning 50-yard touchdown pass in the final minute, leading the Cowboys to a 24-23 victory. “But he wants to get the ball out of his hand, which is so good to see for a young quarterback”. “For me, it’s taking it one day at a time and just executing to the best of my abilities”. “I mean we’re a different team”. He’s constantly working on his craft.

“We”™ll mix him in,” Pettine said of Davis, who signed with the Browns last week.

Yes, the game was against arguably the worst team in the NFL.

“Manziel was listed on the injury report as a limited participant in Wednesday”™s practice.

Mariota threw all his touchdowns in the first half, another franchise record by a rookie quarterback.

Notes: Winston threw TD passes of 5 and 41 yards to Austin Seferian-Jenkins, finishing 16 of 33 passing for 210 yards, two interceptions and four sacks…. He started off his big-league career with a 1-for-26 stretch, according to a Society for American Baseball Research account, and appeared not ready for the majors.
