    Why Can't the Titans Just Guard Percy Harvin?

    I mean really is the defensive game plan for the Minnesota Vikings that hard?

    He is their only real explosive weapon on offense outside of Adrian Peterson. You know when the Vikings pass that is who they are going to 96% of the time.

    Yet the Titans still give him a 5 yard cushion off the line of scrimmage every passing down. Unreal.

    can't do an 8 man box to shut run down and press the Line of Scrimmage with a corner in Harvin's face, without 2 deep

    its just math

    pick your poison in the NFL and hope most of the poison's you can't prioritize aren't lethal

    You don't need 8 guys to stop Adrian Peterson. This is the NFL.

    Harvin is awesome. Can't stop him, the guy will line up where ever he wants, they will get him the ball no matter what.

    LeBron can't flop around on the ground in the NFL and call it defense.

    Let's see how "awesome" he is if Tennesee doesn't give him a 5 yard cushion on every play. Titans secondary isn't even trying to get in his face.

    Sure it's exaggerated, however if you can barely cross midfield playing the Vikings, then you are not NFL material.

    Did you see his literal goal line carry? He put his head down and absolutely ran through a guy 100lbs more than him.

    The Vikings are 7th overall in scoring defense, 8th in total yardage defense and 8th in rush defense, and they're playing at home.

    Tenn cant stop anyone. Theyve given up 34, 38, 41 and 38 points first four games. Theyre actually having their best defensive effort right now.

    Harvin can absolutely fly. You're right, if you don't give him that cushion, you better have the wheels to hang with him.

    Not too many people on this planet can run a 4.4/4.3 40 on a broken/injured foot.

    Interesting you bring this up. I set aside $260 of my $11K bankroll it took me three years to build up to try a "snowball" experiment.

    You know....try to put a winning streak of 4-5 wins in a row going all in each time to see if I could a huge roll just like that like I see some people do once in a while. I went one for one going all in on Arkansas St (-1.5) on Thursday but couldn't get myself to continue going all -in after that. I decided to go 40% instead then lost two in a row before seeing that bankroll down to like 50% of my original bankroll then went all in again yesterday on a NCAA FB play and hit that.

    But yea you know that's so hilarious coming from a dude who will bet all dogs blindly but call them "leans" only so the whole SBR world doesn't realize that he is as sh*tty in sports betting as his "idol" Lakerboy.

    True they are pretty bad. It;s just that if you actually look at the plays the Vikings run.....it's right out of a high school coach's playbook. You'd think an NFL caliber defense could at least contain that to some degree.
