If you actually think Kirk Cousins only has a small hold on the starting job, you clearly don’t understand how much money they just gave him and you are reacting too heavily towards the Penix pick.

I agree, Levis is their starter for this year barring injury. Maybe not going forward if he struggles but I feel like the Titans either want Levis to be their QB of the future or be in position to draft their next QB. I think he has a solid hold on the starter job at least for this season.

More clueless media on Levis, why all the hate? Will Levis will be the starter unless he completely drops the ball which is highly unlikely. Last year the Titans had the worst OL, no run game, and 1 aged WR. Levis was pressured 45% of the time last year and still played good despite the horrid cast around him. Ryan Tannehill is a top 15-20 QB and he only scored 4 TD's to 7 int's in 9 games, Levis took over and scored 8 TD's to 4 INT's but gets no love because they was wrong on Levis and want him to fail.

Wilson is not being benched for Justin Fields. He failed in China cago because he thought he knew it all. He ignored the veteran QBS trying to help him.

There's no way Kirko loses his starting job. Terry Fontenot has clearly stated Kirko's job is to win SuperBowls and MP9's job is to learn. This is a long term plan. Kirk will start for 2 years. Bad take and obviously has no pulse of the Atlanta situation.

She was right about Cousins, who during his time in MN had a history of slow starts. 2022 being the lone exception. Here's the Vikings record through the first 4 games with Cousins as the starting QB. 2018: 1-2-1, 2019: 2-2, 2020: 1-3, 2021: 1-3, 2022: 3-1, 2023: 1-3, But this time in Atlanta Cousins can't afford any more slow starts, because there is a top 10 2024 draft pick who's waiting to start. Time will tell.

@michaelk8710 Месяц назад

To add Kirk (a proven top 10 NFL QB) to this list strains credulity, just absurd and seems highly personal. I take it Florio isn't over Kirk leaving the Vikings just yet. And who is that lady, Florio's in-law he is doing a favor for? Utterly ridiculous...

Florio and his guest just say the dumbest things constantly. I expect the Titans to go 1-3 in the first four games as they start to figure out the offensive scheme. Just mouth pieces that dont actually pay attention to football.

@user-iq6cc3df3l Месяц назад

Will Levis is an incredible passer with a quick release and really strong arm. He showed flashes of brilliance in his rookie season and, yeah, some stupid stuff too. You expect a rollercoaster ride from a rookie. With that arm of his he could become a legit star. Now he could burn out too but I doubt it. Once he settles down he’s off to the races.

@chickengod9184 29 дней назад

Benching cousins would put the livelihood of the front office in jeopardy, by admitting they made a huge mistake in personnel. No way that happens. Russell Wilson's leash will be extremely short once they realize he can't read defenses or throw the ball over the middle. Check Downs won't work for him anymore

@cartertune153 Месяц назад

Titans are not in a big enough "win now" mindset to bench Levis this year. They want to know if they need to draft a new qb next year even if they think Rudolph is more likely to win games.

@Rx_Lee Месяц назад

Even if Levis plays Average they still wont draft a QB, they will let him start for 2-3 years to get the system down and see what they have. Teams don't give up on 1st and 2nd round picks in 1-2 years.

@woodryn_the_poody696 18 дней назад

That is gross incompetence, anybody who is paying attention to the Tennessee Titans longer than 30 seconds will tell you that Willis is the starting quarterback in Tennessee for this entire season. Unless he has a total meltdown, he will play as the starting quarterback for the remainder of his rookie contract. I would bet a year salary on that. This woman is an idiot.

@bonecold4387 Месяц назад

Levis has the green light and holds the keys to the car with no doubt unless he goes out there and absolutely stinks it up week after week after week. Titans are going to allow him to go through his ups and downs all season. Highly doubt they bench him at any point but if he underperforms then they may look at drafting another qb or going after another qb in free agency for the future. For now, theyl organization is fully behind him as the franchise qb.

Idk how clueless you have to be to pick the guy who just got 100 million dollars. And levis has absolutely nothing to worry about this year. If you want to say he needs to show something this year or he may be out next year that's understandable. But there is no chance they bench levis for any reason after doing everything possible to build a functional offe se around him to see if he can be the guy. That's the equivalent of buying a car, spending thousand to fix it up then not even trying to see if it's a good ride lol

Hypothetically though they could move on as soon as next year in the event he/they do really poorly... but then the play would still not be to start Mason but to instead draft another QB like Carson Beck, Quinn Ewers, or Shedeur Sanders, and use the pieces they had intended for levis for one of those players while also still keeping Levis on as a solid backup or in the event he improves the following year. This is extremely unlikely though... basically requiring a worst case scenario AND for them to fall in love with one of those top QBs which is kinda ehh... not 2022 bad but definitely not as good as 2023 or 2024 in terms of available QB talent quality.
