Blasphemy Giving AVT Winston Hill 75 number and 2 months before he s inducted into the Football Hall of Fame. This is just wrong on many fronts. First off he should have had his number retired years ago. I hope Saleh or the Johnson clowns realize this and make the rookie pick another jersey This is a FanPost written by a registered member of this site.

Gang Green Nation’s Highlight Reel
for the past week:
On the pressure of playing in New York:
In my opinion, the narrative of “the spotlight in New York” is one of the most overblown thing in sports. Every athlete feels a incredible amount of pressure. If you play really well, you get a massive 8 figure a year a year contract. If you struggle, fans will hate you and the media will attack. This applies no matter where you play. Is it amplified a little bit more in New York? Sure, but I don’t think it’s as big of a deal as people make it out to be.

The Titans have an opportunity with the No. 22 pick to fill the void left by wide receiver Corey Davis, who signed with the New York Jets during free agency. That’s ultimately what Gang Green Nation decided to do in our writers’ mock draft, selecting Rashod Bateman out of Minnesota.
From Music City Miracles’ Justin Melo:
Bateman would slot in nicely opposite A.J. Brown as a direct replacement for Corey Davis, who departed for the New York Jets in free agency. Bateman would be a natural fit in a Titans offense that puts a premium on yards after the catch. Quarterback Ryan Tannehill has been incredibly productive while taking advantage of Tennessee’s well designed play-action passing game. Bateman has the skill set to thrive in that area of the game.
