00:00I've watched Cam Ward play back-to-back weeks now with Dable as his new offensive coordinator.
00:06And can I tell you, in week one, Tennessee is not beating the Jets.
00:12Cam Ward, great arm, has no idea where it's going, Tom.
00:16The Seattle game, the 49er game, rather, a week prior,
00:21Seattle, the 49ers didn't even play any starters.
00:25And he looked like this was his first football game that he had played.
00:29He was getting beat up on the second and third stringers of the 49ers.
00:33Then I'm watching him last night against Seattle.
00:35I'm going, maybe Dable's the answer for him by the time we get to the middle at the end of
00:41October.
00:43But that is not an offense I'm looking at and go, unless they can win games defensively,
00:49I think the Jets, I changed my mind.
00:52I think the Jets could steal one in Tennessee in week one.
00:54I'm not sold on the Dable-Cam Ward thing yet.
00:58Yeah, it's not yet.
01:00And when you see what Tennessee did in the offseason, new head coach with Robert Sala,
01:04you're bringing Dable, who I've been saying this for a while about Brian Dable news with the Giants.
01:09He's not a good head coach.
01:10He's a good offensive coordinator.
01:11That's why he became a head coach.
01:12And some guys are like this, where they're just not meant to be head coaches.
01:16And it's not a disrespect thing.
01:18It's like, they're great offensive coordinators.
01:20Stay as an offensive coordinator.
01:21You can be in the league for 20, 30 years.
01:23You're just not meant to be a head coach.
01:25Then they go out and draft Cardinal Tate.
01:27And you're like, okay, we have a second-year quarterback.
01:29We have a guy who we know can be a good offensive coordinator.
01:32We're bringing in talent around our quarterback.
01:34Like, the arrow's pointing up.
01:36But it may be a very slow ascent getting there.
01:39So early season, the Titans, I think there's going to be some bumps in the road.
01:44But once we get to the end of September, we get to the middle of October,
01:47that's where I think the offense will at least become competent to above average.
01:50But early season, I think there's a really low floor for the Titans to score
01:55sub-14 points a game.
02:00Yeah, it's not good.
02:01He still looks like that deer caught in the headlight.
02:05You know, I saw it a number of times last night in that game.
02:09Just a little bit worrisome there.
02:11I do think Dable is, you're right, a great coordinator.
02:14I think Cam Ward, he's in the best shape that he has been in a very long time.
02:19But I'm not exactly enamored by the pieces around him offensively either.
02:24So I hate to say it, but Geno Smith early in the season,
02:29I don't want Geno late this season.
02:31But Geno Smith early in the season, I might have to consider taking those points
02:35in week one.
02:36I don't want Geno Smith early in the season.
