The guy obviously isn't starting for a reason besides as a backup role. But he did some good things as well in Buffalo and played some pretty decent games during his tenure there, no?

When I say due, I don't mean 300+ yards and 4 TDs, I mean 200 yds, 1 TD and NO TURNOVERS.

The running game isn't what it needs to be and with the way the D is playing, all we need a some sort of offense and we could be 1-1 without Locker.

You didn't say what you do mean though, lol.

The Titans are a good team. I don't think they need Fitz to go off to win this game. I don't know that he's due for anything though. I'm not surprised at how he's playing at all. I can see him not have a turnover and convert enough 3rd downs to keep the chains moving... that's about all that's needed. But I don't know if I'd even say he's due for that. Like you said, there's a reason he's a back up... but he's still one of the better back ups in the league.

I don't think the Titans will have a whole of success offensively, but I'm not sure the Niners will either. I think this could be an ugly low-scoring game where turnovers provide the difference.

Agreed.

And my mistake, I should've clarified "due". But man, the guy has been horrendous.

Titans have a lot of probs on offense (again), but Locker should return soon. I hope he continues to improve. I thought when he went down we needed to go at least 1-2 to have a legitimate chance @ the playoffs.

I think if Greene play, we got a shot.

Locker might start!

edit: Looks to be official
