Your “I Made It All The Way To Thursday For This?” Thursday Night Open Thread

Wow. This game. THIS GAME. It’s got ‘turgid’ written all over it, don’t it? But we’ll make the most of it as we always do. I don’t even know where to start but I’ve no choice. TO THE GAME!

Titans/Jags:

Jalen Ramsey insists that this will be his last time donning this uni so in a way he’s a bit of a Jag-off. There’s a ton of rumbling on various fan sites that Old Man Coughlin is rewarding certain players that are ‘company men’ and taking a hard line with other dudes that are out-performing their contracts. Yeah, it’s true-there is more than one fan site devoted to the Jaguars.

Also making the best of a bad situation? A certain Minshew, that’s who. Of course he’s not being asked to do a heck of a lot but when he his O-line creates a clean pocket he makes the vast majority of his throws. Those throws tend to be along the sidelines-he hasn’t attacked the center of the field much yet and tonight wouldn’t be a good time to start because gifted safety Kevin Byard will be waiting. Look for a long toss or three to wr Chark, the possessor of 4.3 forty speed. But you and I both know that we’ll be seeing plenty of Fournette and Henry this game because both teams don’t trust their qbs, I mean, love to run. Which of those two bipedal Sherman tanks will win out? Who can say?

But yeah, Jack’s O is ranked 29th and the Titans are 25th. The last three games between these teams have averaged 26.3 points. Betting-wise the over/under is 39 and the Titans are 4-17 straight up on the road against their AFC South brethren. If the football gods are cranky we’re looking at a 16-6 final score. If they got laid last night we might luck into 17-10. It’s gonna be that bad.

Do your worst.
