I'll let you in on a secret, I thought he would be a bust as well but he's been great up to this point and the titans don't have great offensive weapons around him. Put mariota on Dallas and they likely are in the super bowl.

Disagree. I don't like his throwing mechanics and I don't think he has Dak's leadership qualities. He's too quiet and unassuming. Top QBs have alpha male personalities. Winton's is over the top and Mariota's just not there personality wise.

So what happens when Marcus has another outstanding season in year 3? Gonna come back here an predict he'll fall flat in year 4? Lol.

In two years, his first while getting absolutely pummeled behind an ridiculously incompetent line, Mariota has thrown 45 tds vs 19 interceptions. He was 26 and 9 this year while leading a team that had won 5 collective games the two previous years to 9 wins. Mariota is 100% an absolute franchise qb for the Titans, zero doubt about that. John Robinson knows it, Titan's ownership knows it, NFL analysts know it, Titans players and fans know it.

So, I nor anybody else cares anything about your prediction that he'd be a bust.....you're clearly wrong again.

We'll see what happens in year 3. At this time last year everyone thought Blake Bortles was a franchise guy. Now look at him.

A lot can change in a year.

I'm personally not gonna buy into Mariota until he gives me zero doubt. Right now I doubt he ever stays healthy. And I doubt his intangibles to be a leader players follow into battle.

Blake Bortles has always been bad

Bortles threw for 4400 yards and 35 TDs in 2015. Both near the top of the league. He was also named to NFL Network's Top 100 players list. So he definitely had a lot of positive buzz going into 2016. And so did the Jags.

Then the season happened and their coach was fired and Jags fans want Bortles replaced.

From now on I'm going to make outlandish claims as D4H.

Dormady is throwing 40 tds this year with 3 rushing tds. Future HOF in 2019 draft class. I've watched his tape, his arm is the best in his generation. He'll probably run around a high 4.4 at the combine.

Stays healthy? He had his leg broken on a fluke play while starting the 15th of 16 possible games this season. Coupled with the end of his rookie season, that was 22 consecutive starts for Marcus and 27 out of 32 in his first two years.....that's hardly a track record of fragility and being oft injured. Then throw in his 3-year collegiate career where he started all 41 possible games. That's 68 for 73 where he's answered the bell....93%.

Btw, I can see why you think he's a bust/will be a bust, what with a combined college/NFL TD to interception ratio of 160-33.....why, who could possibly come to any other conclusion?

He also played a good part of the season with a partially separated shoulder and wrist tendinitis ......that's likely why he looked like a different player, mechanically and otherwise.

Blake Bortles of Jacksonville Jaguars played through 2016 season with separated right shoulder

He tailed off big time to end the season. I'm still in wait and see mode with him. After week 5 or so he looked like a typical rookie QB, not a surefire franchise guy like Dak.

Dude you are crazy. Put him in Dallas and he has a much better year and surpassing what Dak has done. Have you seen what he has around him? Absolutely no weapons

Dobbs struggling today , they just said he would throw 1 or 2 good passes and then 1 not even close.

Watch ESPN's coverage. They were raving about him.

And I believe the NFL Network guys were talking about his tape from the season not practice.

In senior bowl practices he has been praised for being consistent.

If you're gonna praise him for throwing a forward pass, at latest take the bad stuff as well. He didn't have a good wednesday.

sorry but your wrong, they continued working with him on his foot work he was struggling big time under center and throwing passes way off the mark...I didn't say this ...NFL Network did.

Happy for Dobbs! I work in Gatlinburg and him coming up there after all the fires (Jones and the rest of the team included) really meant a lot to me and the community.... That being said.

It sure sucks being a Browns fan. Where every Tennessee player I love I have to secretly hope they don't go to my team because I want them to have a good long NFL career. :( I sure hope things turn around, lol.

Edit: Tho from what I've been reading Hue Jackson and Dobbs might be quite the match for each other!!!
