I liked the quicker tempo with Allen getting us to the LOS with a lot of time to survey his pre-snap reads. I’d like to see more of that moving forward. Seems we are constantly in too much of hurry with the checks and snapping the ball barely in time. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if he's able to clear concussion protocol prior to game time why not give him the game off and be 100% sure he's OK. Bring him back after the bye vs Miami and let him find his feet against a weak opponent. You also have the added benefit of letting him watch and learn, and take the necessary time to digest that Pats loss and his up and down start to the year. It worked last year. independent neurologist run the tests for players to clear protocol, if i'm not mistaken. if they clear they are 100% ready.... so if he clears he should play. PERIOD.

Now I'm really confused. You might want to check yourself into the concussion protocol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can be 100% sure he's okay this week, that's how the concussion protocol works. More to that point, you play him because he's your franchise QB and you do everything you can to win every single game. The titans don't scare me, but if Allen is good to go and we don't play him and then we lose, the what if of that situation is the kind of thing that ruins a season. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logic Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 The fact that he's sitting in on meetings and doing individual warmups is a good sign. Tomorrow's status update will be crucial. We can't rule out the possibility that they sit him vs Titans due to the bye week coming after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do they have complimentary coffee and snacks there? I'm not going if there isn't creamer for the coffee- none of this half and half bs either. I want the real stuff.

The sooner he’s able to wash the bad taste of the Pats*** game, the better. Plus, he beat the Titans with a game winning drive last year as well. He’s familiar with them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes the controversial third INT was in the third quarter. And yes, Daboll consistently gets plays in late. Josh also responds well to hurry up. Not always but usually. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 I think McDermott is going to use this to keep Tennessee guessing as to who starts as long as he can. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PERIOD. The thing with concussions is you never really know. Josh can get cleared by the best neurologists on the planet. It's still an educated guess. Like I said, there's also the added benefit of letting him watch and learn for a week. That was a brutal performance on Sunday and he's struggled at times in the other games too. Maybe sitting out a week will help him learn that every possession counts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Augie Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Wait! Josh has a concussion? When did this happen? How am I supposed to keep up with this? (I mean, other than the rest of the threads.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
