re: I hear Mettsiah is going to start for the Titans this week.

So, so wrong.



The stats cited above counter your assertion that he checked down a lot. You don't average 10+yds/Att throwing bubble screens and check downs. I never said the kid couldn't sling it. But at LSU he had two WRs that out-classed 90% of the DBs they faced. (BTW, love Landry on the Fins) He's not going to have that luxury in the NFL. I just think he has a limited skill-set and the one skill he has (huge arm) is way down the list of importance of what makes a successful QB. It just happens to be the one skill that visually captures people's imagination.
