I hate helping out TMD, but we rushed for 131.5 yards/game without Meester and 150.3 yards with him.

Still if we kept that pace of 131.5/game for the year, we'd be the 6th best rushing attack in the NFL.



 TMD on Mike Walker Sep.7:
"because he stinks"
"Why don't you get it? WTH has this player done, besides be an OTA wonder?"
"In the exhibition games, he's shown eggo hands."
"It's like you people are truly shocked/ mystified/ surprised that Harris produced another bust."

Yes, Norman has filled in quite nicely for us the past couple of years. After looking at the stats from our early games last year (the ones where Meester was out) I noticed that we didn't exactly run the ball very well those first couple of games. (The argument could be made that we were still "gelling" as an offense.)

This year we can't afford to start off slow because of 3 out 4 games to start the season are against division opponents.


Also, the news of Norman getting hurt worry me( although, the reports are that it isn't very serious).

This isn't a sky is falling post, but, I think we maybe overlooking the injury to Meester a little bit.

Am I being paranoid?

Thoughts??


Did you also notice that the team had just cut the starting quarterback that they had been preparing to start the season with, and had crafted the playbook around?

Or, did you notice that they were installing a brand new offense last year at the start of the season?

Meester's absence won't be as significant as you think. Norman will be fine.

As far as starting off slow, what was our record after 4 games last year?

I think you're being a little paranoid.



Good points.

I guess I was being paranoid.



Jeezus dude....one post by FBT & your "convinced".

Have some conviction.

I mean one punch & you're out??

I think your initial post does raise some concerns.

FBT is never going to admit that the team has any problems. He always says "X player will be fine" or "whatever sapect of the team will be fine".

It will take more than that for me to be convinced.

Lets see THIS years team start off 3-1 with this schedule, and maybe the next time FBT says "we'll be fine" I will give that more cred.
  we are all going to find out just how good Norman is week one.  Haynesworth is no joke to deal with and when he was in in our first game with TN we did very little on the ground.  One thing TN does well is play the run.  Fat Albert is their key and it does concern me he will be going up against Norman.  I know Norman will get help but that means KVB and Kearse gets singled.  I think week one will tell us alot about our team for 08. 




Why the name TitanJag?  I am a Jag fan who has a sister married to a now former Titan player.  Thank god he left in Free Agency.

You said you did the research about the beginning of the year when Norman was out, same happened at the end of the season.

Don't feel bad. I know it suck though. His ego might go up another notch.

Some would rather not wait until week one to tell us about our team for 2008.

20 yards is so much though.

o so i wasnt wrong about the patriots starters... hmm ray rice is still god tho



Rashean the I-N-T Machine Mathis- best CB in the game
TMD's "predictions" so far for 08 season:
-Minnesota and Philly in the NFC championship game with Minnesota in the Superbowl
-Denver Broncos in the AFC championship game
-Houston a top 5 rushing team in the 09 season
-Houston seeded higher in the playoffs than the jags
- jags finishing 9-7 at best
- Browns finish better than the Jags
-Jags finish last in the AFC South after a bad showing in the preseason
TMD and I have a bet for $100 on the Jags wins
-Denver winning the AFC West LOL
-Bengals over Jags 24-21

I wonder what Tom was referring to then.  He couldn't have been that far off.  Hmmm, I dion't know.

I just looked that up too. The fact of the matter is though that the increase in rushing yards had nothing to do with Meester's return and everything to do with Fred Taylor exploding after the game in Tennessee. The rushing offense will be fine with or without Brad Meester. I'm more curious to see how the pass blocking is working out, considering we are trying to throw the ball deep more often.
