Marcus Mariota has been benched by the Tennessee Titans in\nfavor of Ryan Tannehill which could spell the end of Mariota’s time in\nTennessee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marcus Mariota has Had HIs Chances<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The decision to not start Marcus Mariota at this point in\nthis career could spell the end of this time as a Tennessee Titan. It may seem\nlike a harsh decision but if you feel that way, you haven’t been paying close\nenough attention to Mariota’s time with the Titans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the last two plus seasons, the Titans don’t win because\nof Mariota, they win despite him. His issues as a quarterback are numerous and\nobvious. His inaccuracy is the first problem that he faces as a signal caller.\nHe fails to deliver the ball to wide open receivers even in the most routine of\nsituations. He has been in the league long enough to show some sort of progress\nin that regard. Instead he is basically a “Check Down Charlie”,\nsomeone who would rather get yardage than take a chance and make a mistake.\nThat’s not how a franchise quarterback should approach games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even the Basics Were Too Much for Mariota<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When Marcus Mariota came into the NFL<\/a>, he was a dual threat QB coming out of the University of Oregon. The native of Hawaii has always been an elite level athlete and it was believed that his physical gifts would translate to the NFL. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They have not. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Early in his career he did show the ability to be a threat\nwith his legs. Just like all running quarterbacks before him he also couldn’t\nseem to stay healthy. The funny thing about Mariota is, his running isn’t even\nreally what got him hurt. It has to be said that as an NFL QB, he isn’t much of\na running threat. It’s not that he can’t do it, he doesn’t know when it should\nbe done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His pocket presence is one of the worst of all the starting\nQB’s in the league. There are several situations that could be pointed to where\nhe has room to take off and he simply doesn’t. Far too often he would hold the\nball for much longer than recommended. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What happens Next For Mariota?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The question of what happens next for Marcus Mariota can probably best be answered by his backup. Ryan Tannehill has the chance to claim this job as his own. As a member of the Miami Dolphins, he was never spectacular but he wasn’t bad either. He is a very capable QB who has never been surrounding by a supporting cast of this caliber. The Titans aren’t offensive juggernauts by any means, but Tannehill has got more weapons to work with than he ever did in Miami. He also now has a defense that could protect a lead. This group doesn’t need much offense to get wins as they’ve shown over the years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sad truth of the matter for Marcus Mariota who’s still only 25 years old, that Ryan Tannehill, 31 years old<\/a>, is simply the better player. If Tannehill reaches his ceiling with this group, Marcus Mariota’s career with the Titans, and possibly as a starting QB in the NFL is over. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Marcus Mariota has been benched by the Tennessee Titans in favor of Ryan Tannehill which could spell the end of Mariota’s time in Tennessee.
