 I'll come to the bet MGM studio and the Mike Vrables show presented by seat geek with the head coach I'm Mike Keith Why apparently at some point in time last week? Okay, so why I made a wager with our amazing producer Ashley Ferrell Missouri versus Ohio State right unbeknownst to me. I forgot they even played and apparently Ohio State lost they did 14 three So you're wearing tiger ears as a result of that. Is it did you lose a bet actually couldn't get into Ohio State? That's not my fault. I apologize. So now I have to wear these for just about a few more seconds, right Ash Okay, Ash says they could so you have fulfilled your end of the bet Anything for that was anybody else? I wasn't a chance and I know I mean I would she left those out I said man you are Ash will do it. I Wow It's always entertaining isn't it just keep laughing at my jokes. She does laugh. She is she is the Mike Vrables show laugh track There there's no question Back to work today figuring out who's gonna be available to play Sunday against Jacksonville. Yep. We are and we're excited about the preparation We're excited to finish strong. It's what we want to do. You know, we want to we want to write our own ending here and You know try to finish with a lot of class and a lot of Just effort and consistent clean football All right, let's take a look at the Mike Vrables six-pack presented by Seed Geek. Let's start with a little defense Roger McCurry and Aziz Elshire. Yeah, there's a lot of good swarm right here You know, you can see the ball gets spit out there and a lot of great effort guys are running to the football You see Arden retracing you see Roger showing up. You see Aziz, you know running at the back hip not overrunning it You know a lot of great efforts throughout this game and again You could see guys running to the football Roger leveraging it Aziz running inside out and then here comes the rest of the guys And you know when we get there We just got to keep hammering at that football and it'll pop out We've talked about Roger McCurry this year Aziz Elshire 153 tackles on and counting and counting no doubt about it. All right more defense Here's Harold Landry showing up in the run game to stop a drive. Yep And it was great to stop right there on on short yardage and that's just Harold attacking But if you look here, I want you to see Marlon Davidson makes this play Marlon Davidson knocks the guard two yards back into the backfield that tight end can't come back and get Harold So, you know, that's one of those plays that as a defensive lineman You can make the play without making the tackle and those are the types of plays that you know And you can see right there Marlon's knocking that guy back He can't get the Harold and Harold comes in there and cleans it up. Yeah, that's Shaq Mason. He's hitting right there. That's no great pad level Yeah, that's that's good luck by number 92 is playing good football for the Titans. All right play number three early third quarter How about some Derek Henry for 16 yards? Yeah, well, we're able to stay on track and we get the late push there as Derek gets the edge And you know trying to get everything he can there and you know, those are just you know We have to get more of these, you know, we're able to get Dylan up to the second level you could see now trailing gets in there gets a great block on a safety and Big OJ on the edge there gets just enough to the end and then doesn't hold him You know, sometimes you see some holding penalties out there. And so he gave him a late shove That puts Derek Henry over 1,000 yards for the season in the last six years He's been over a thousand in five of those seasons The only year he didn't make it was the year he was injured two seasons ago and he had nine thirty seven Incredible five-year run for Derek Henry. Let's see DeAndre Hopkins go over a thousand yards for the seventh time in his career on this play coach Yeah, and again, we're able to progress, you know And hop does a great job of feeling that that linebacker sitting there in the zone Ryan does a nice job of throwing it, you know on his inside And so when he throws it on his inside hop knows that's the way that the quarterback wants me to roll and to come out of it And that's you know, that's a pretty good relationship right there a really good understanding Not thrown him over into the linebacker, but thrown it on his inside shoulder, you know, and then you could see their hop knows Okay, I'm gonna drop step inside away from the defender DeAndre Hopkins had seven catches for 72 yards in the game on Sunday more Harold Landry here a quarterback sack He's got ten and a half on the year after this one. Well, this is just a nice job here of trying to work together to You know affect the ball and you know, maybe we'll get it out here But you know the coverage does a nice job and again Harold keeps going and sometimes you get sacks on your first effort Sometimes the second and sometimes your third so you know We have to just keep rushing and that's a case of that right there He stays on his feet and able to take take the quarterback love a sack for minus 12 to those are great Only thing better is when you're able to knock it out right there and pick it up and run it in All right sixth play of the six pack Ryan Tannehill to Chica Conquo for 21 Yeah, and finds chag air in the middle of the field and you know again chag's been able to take advantage of those opportunities that we've you know that he's earned You know the back part of the season, you know, and I know that you know His consistency and his preparation, you know has allowed him to continue to stay there and help us and again He chips for us and he blocks for us and you know, we're able to get him the ball and some of these catch and run opportunities Chica Conquo with 52 catches on the season for the Tennessee Titans He's the second leading receiver behind Deandre Hopkins who has 68 so far on the campaign Titans getting ready to play Jackson Bell But we've got one more look at last Sunday's game because when we come back. It's time to go to the Vrables straighter Vrables straighter That's exactly right We're gonna take a look at a big play at the end of the first half and coach will break it down for us when we Continue from the bet MGM studio with the Mike Vrables show presented by seat geek stay with us The Mike Vrables show presented by seat geek from the bet MGM studio so glad to have you with us as it's time for America's favorite the Vrables straighter All right We're gonna take a look at a play at the end of the first half that was a big gator to wide receiver Chris Moore Show us how this works so well. Well, we're down. We're down here You know, we need some chunks, right? So for us in order to get some some chunk yardage We have to be able to take, you know, some guys here down Through and work some sort of three-layer release here, you know, they end up clouding over here to hop So that side's dead. We'll come back to that later. That's what got us in field goal range But what you can see here is chigs gonna end up working his way out after he chips So chigs gonna chip and then we get a layered route And so what you can do is you can see here that Chris is running through the middle and This split safety look here on the cloud Forces this guy to get over here and squeeze. He doesn't quite get there. So you've got Chris running through the middle You've got trailing bending in behind there. And again, if they all drop off you still have chick here Now you got to hold up. You got to hold up in protection, you know And so we get the chip initially and again, we got to sit down We got to stay inside out but give Ryan a lot of credit, you know For being able to put that ball up in there And this is one thing you see all the time from Chris Moore as we take a look at the end zone Okay, as we take a look at the end zone is Chris Moore is going up to get the football That's the one thing I appreciate about appreciate about Chris is that He goes and he's able to high point the football So here there's going to be traffic, you know, Ryan could probably have waited out just another You know, half a second and hit trailing coming in But from the end zone, you know, what you're going to see is a layered route here Chig short trailing deep, you know, so it's this Excuse me is going to be Chris clearing through trailing bending in here Chig chipping and then being here. So there's your three level inward breaking route Is the design of the plate to go to Chris? It's the design is going to throw to the guy that's open And now I would say that nine times out of 10 you watch around the league Most of these passes are going here and if this safety pushes early now you're going to throw the bench over here or the corner To hopkins, but it gives a quarterback Okay, different levels down the field at this end of half So Ryan in your guess picked Chris because he wanted to give him a chance to go because the middle of the field was open Sometimes you see, you know, that there's a mic that runs through the middle, you know And he could be here waiting for it. This safety was over here in the half part of the field So ryan felt like okay, I'm going to take this thing down here knowing that we're going to have leverage On that half field safety as opposed to that mic being down there deep gain of 32. Yep It's set up a field goal. All right when we come back It's time for our epic western spotlight and we will feature chris moore learn more about him and Running that's next on the bike for April show presented by seat Chris moore can run Yes, he's fast, but this isn't about speed This is about a football player who can run and run and run some more I don't know that I've ever seen a titan who never seems to get tired Like chris moore. He's amazing. He can chase down a deep ball cover a punt run a reverse Block someone 20 yards down the field. It doesn't matter. He never seems to be breathing hard At 30 years old chris moore is a total professional Who does whatever the job requires but in the end his real gift is his amazing ability to run In this week's epic western spotlight, we feature chris moore who makes it clear I love to run. I can run all day Every year I'm here. I keep getting better, but I'm definitely this is uh, the best chris moore as I get older I feel like I'm getting more opportunities to go out there and play more receiver Early my cryologist a special teams guy and just going out there on special teams But as I get older to let me play receiver, I'm building more trust with these coaches and the organization So the more opportunities I get probably my numbers will just keep going I know my job I hardly mess up to be honest to have amazed and then as far as my skill set I'm just a fast guy who will clear stuff open for other guys and even to take top off the defense to get the ball myself Like the system that works for me. So I pick up stuff pretty quick I feel like that's one of the things I struggled with in early my career because when you're a young guy It's a whirlwind. It's just everything's being thrown at you. It was tough at first But once I found what works for me, I feel like it's been way easier since then I'm very big on nutrition and what I eat and then as far as like just learning a new play book always I have a how I study. I'm a big flash car guy. Like I'm always flashing through flash cars time That's how I learned the offense and that's the big thing that for me that gets me going The players out there making the decisions at high speed and we can have a very successful game So I mean that's what I like about it gives a lot of freedom to go out there and just play football and play fast Now I want my teammates to know like when I'm on the field with them that they can trust me to do my job I see you baby. Let's go. I'll tell you make a play. You don't have to worry about me on the field So I love to run like I can run all day Chris Moore number 11 for the Tennessee Titans. You said when he got here I've enjoyed coaching him. This just in OTAs. You said I wish he'd been here sooner. Yeah, absolutely I really just have enjoyed getting to know Chris and his family Um, who he is as a teammate. He's an amazing teammate. There's nothing that he won't do For the team. He plays a lot of positions. He saw him on special teams. You see him, you know, on offense He's willing to block You know, we talked about him. We saw him earlier on the on the telestrator You know, it goes up and gets the football. So it's made some really big plays for us this year Chris Moore averaging over 20 yards of catch this season for the Tennessee Titans Coming up Kids ask coach Vrable That's right around the corner Mike Vrable show presented by seat geek continues from the bet mgm studio after this Welcome back to the bet mgm studio and the mike Vrable show presented by seat geek Make a wish middle tennessee aims to create life changing wishes for children with critical illnesses And recently the titans were given the opportunity to participate in making six-year-old mason mason's wish come true Last april mason was diagnosed with osteo sarcoma He also underwent an emergency heart surgery before undergoing chemotherapy his wish To spend a couple of days with his very favorite football team So today we're granting the first part of mason's wish and he really wanted a titans experience and that's what we think of an effort today Buddy He knows exactly like the 23rd 24th are his titans days I tried to get him to do like disney or something else, but i was like no This is like mason's disney world.

We have a lot of different breakdowns, but that one right there was the best Guest breakdown that we've ever had so we told mason that and uh, he just has a very amazing Personality and you could see how he interacted with the players in the moment was not too big for him I meant he's like, hey, what's up, henry? That's good stuff. All right time now for kids ask coach fable Let's take a look Can you do that I could I bet I could I'm not gonna do it. I mean, but no, I'm not saying like right this second I mean at this point in your life. Yeah, I could still do that Yeah, a round off. I could do that Seriously? Yeah, I used to do the back, you know, hand. Yeah, you could do a back. Younger days, you know younger mic Wow, not 48 year old. I'll do that tomorrow on the field and I should bring your camera. All right. Well when we come back Maybe that's good. One of the nissan keys to success Seems like it would be the nissan key to traction uh The mic variable show continues Stay with us The mic variable show presented by seat geek from the bet mgm studio now moves to the nissan keys to success this sunday against jacksonville Let's bring them up here number one Provide momentum and field position on special teams and you have the ability to do that on special teams There's so much time and distance that gets traveled whether we cover a kickoff That's inside the 20 or we don't cover a punt very well And then they're able to get the ball back around midfield Those are those are critical momentum changing field position changing place Just like you saw, you know kella. He's trying to force the punt And runs into the kicker and so instead of a you know a stop on defense We have to go back out there So those are the things that we have to continue to do and then eliminate the The mistakes and the things that you know ultimately get you beat Speaking of mistakes key number two is no unforced errors on offense We have to stay ahead of the chains. We have to be able to you know, keep it in third and manageable third and short Pick those up You know, we're gonna have to hit some x plays along the way, but as obviously just not beating ourselves Uh, whether that's penalties missed assignments You know, operationally, you know 12 men in a huddle Being great from from coaching to to playing to executing. Uh, that'll be huge on offense Got to run the ball Well, we'll have to you know, I mean that's always something that you know in order to possess the football Which you have to against a good team You know, that's something that we're going to have to be able to do just to be able to stay balanced and set everything else up All right The third Nissan key to success make them earn everything be great tacklers in space Yep, so they like to get their playmakers the ball in space whether that's angriom Okay, that's at the end and so We have to make sure, you know, whether Kirk's back they do that with him and you know, the ag news not going to be out there But you know, we we have to go tackle, you know, they'll dish it out there And they'll see if you can tackle them and it's seven eight yards and that's how they stay ahead of the chains The last one is making sure that we don't have any unforced there as much like on offense You know the double moves the wheel routes the switch verts that we're covering them and that we make them earn it And there's nothing cheap keep them in front of you and get them on the ground Absolutely, we've been great in a red zone and so we'll continue to rely on that and uh, and we're going to get some Turnovers and it's going to help us win the game Does it make any difference in your preparation whether or not trevor larenz is a quarter? Oh, I don't think I mean I think the plays that we're going to study are going to be the plays that we're going to study Yeah, we'll see if it's trevor larenz or franklin tennessee's own cj Bethard titans against the jaguars coming up this sunday at nissan stadium kickoff set for 1202 Titan's countdown is on the air at 11 a.m On your favorite titans radio station including 104 5 the zone in nashville.
