QB Marcus Mariota on David Blough’s offense:
“It’s not an easy transition when you have to turn your back to the defense…defenses are patterns, and so whatever information that you can get, especially being up towards a line of scrimmage, it’s going to help you out.”
Doesn’t happen often but I agree with Jared on this one. Respect to the Oilers but we have been for the most part, the Tennessee TITANS. Unis look nice but for right now feels more like the Oilers. Want to see how I feel in game.
Because we as a city demanded that they not be the Oilers when they moved here and the NFL convinced Bud Adams to bury it.
The TITANS are my team. Not the Oilers. I respect the Oilers and I think it’s silly to think that their history “belongs” in Houston, but I’m Titans fan.
Mariota says his family wanted to get back to the West Coast but the culture and system in Washington outweighed the geography. Adds that seeing David Blough build his offense "was a challenge I didnt want to pass up"
Unpopular opinion: Marcus Mariota deserves another shot at a starting job. Every time he had to step in for Jayden Daniels, he played solid football and kept the team competitive. That’s the kind of veteran leadership and composure some teams are missing. Someone should give him a real opportunity. Could be the next Sam Darnold.

Marcus Mariota is now a free agent.
I asked Marcus about his future.
He told me, "first and foremost, I love it here...I love what they're building here...just take some time, see if there are options. I love to play."
I simply cannot even fathom trying to explain to someone the quarterback performance that Marcus Mariota had tonight
Carrying a completely dead team against the best defense in the NFL. My goodness.
