Malik Willis benched in Tennessee, Titans will start Josh Dobbs

[Roundybout]

 

I don’t think Willis is very good but it’s a strange call IMO. Dobbs is a known commodity.

 

Jacksonville has the South for its taking if they want it.

The Malik Willis hype-train has come to a grinding halt.

Allegedly the Titans are sitting most of their starters. They don’t care whether they win or lose tonight because they need to beat the Jags next week regardless of a win or loss tonight to win the division.

I picked up the Jags defense in both my remaining fantasy leagues.  I'm playing them in the championship game.  Never would have bet that at the start of the season!

 

So what does that have to do with the Titans game tonight against Dallas.

[GunnerBill]

The Titans handling of Willis has been very odd.

It kinda came to a halt by the 3rd round of the NFL draft.  I remember a pre-draft post comparing Willis to Josh even though he's half the size of Josh😉

They don’t need to win the game 

 

They need to win next week - so why not see what dobbs can do and not risk Malik an injury. If dobbs performs maybe they roll with him the rest of the way

I don't think he's being benched.   I think they are resting everyone

[Gugny]

I wonder how often Willis gets asked what he's talking about.

I agree, even if they are resting their starters in a somewhat meaningless game - seems like Willis would need the work.

It will be interesting to see if D Henry plays - or how much.

Nothing at all.  I am a little slow today and mixed up the Titans and Texans. Sorry

Benching the QB has become a new craze in Tennessee. 

[RiotAct]

lol.  Titans’ season going off the rails.

Hiding him because he can’t throw the ball?

The whole plan has been odd. He was always super raw. You need development plans for guys like that and they have been pissing in the wind.

[Process]

Meaningless game they don't care about winning. Instead of giving the rookie playing time you start a guy you signed just 8 days ago? Don't care how much Willis sucks that's odd.

[H2o]

I mean, even if Tannehill was playing the Titans probably get rolled tonight. Trot Dobbs out there and let him get beaten to death by Lawrence and Parsons. 

[Franco_92]

It's kinda funny that for both JAX and TEN, this week doesn't matter, no combination of results this week changes the fact that week 18 is win and in for both. Both teams should rest their starters

 

No, I'm not playing against Henry in the fantasy finals this week, why do you ask

You mean Mike Vrabel is not a QB Whisperer? I am shocked. SHOCKED, I tell you.
