Pro Football Focus: Nuggets From the Titans Game

Pro Football Focus continued their "re-focused" series where they review each game from the previous week. They just finished with the Titans vs. Browns game, and a summary of what they had to say about the Browns is after the jump.

Star-divide

  • Quarterback Colt McCoy was given an average rating for the game, but it was said that his receivers hurt his production greatly, particularly running back Montario Hardesty with four drops.
     
  • Wide receiver Greg Little ran 59 pass routes, 40 of which came from the slot production. Even though he had six receptions, his production was considered pretty low given the number of routes he ran.
     
  • The safeties continue to be a unit that struggles, and that includes the trio of T.J. Ward, Usama Young, and Mike Adams. Each of them were involved in the Titans' three big offensive plays during the game. Out of the three safeties, Adams, not Ward, was credited as having the best game.
     
  • Even though Chris Johnson had a couple of nice runs, several defensive players were praised for stopping him for short gains or a loss. Those players included linebackers D'Qwell Jackson and Scott Fujita, and defensive end Jabaal Sheard.
     
  • Here is an interesting one for predictability: "80% of the time when Peyton Hillis ran the ball, it was between the tackles. 85% of the time when Montario Hardesty ran the ball, it was somewhere to the right of the right guard."

Wow that last one is shocking. I dont think Shurmer understands what he actually has in Peyton, and it will be a damn shame if those Grossi rumors or whatever you call it are true. IMO Hillis is at his best when you get him stretching outside of JT and a G swinging. Get a seal on the outside and Peyton with a head of steam and show me a guy who will get him down more then 50% of the time.

So, not only are we not using him as well as we could, we are letting the D know where to expect to see him. I think even Daboll knew better.

Hillis running off left tackle. BOOM. TD. Is that so hard to do?

Even Doug Dieken admits Joe Thomas is the real #73
