The Paul Kuharsky Podcast: Titans' First-Down Passing!

The Paul Kuharsky PodcastNASHVILLE, Tenn. -- First-down runs are down 13 percent for the Titans through two games, which means -- you guessed it -- first-down passes are up 13 percent!

There are other things that are not totally in kilter. But Tennessee's highly predictable run at the start of a new set of downs is down and that's a big development, and that's where we start this week's edition of the podcast.

The new episode awaits you on Apple, Spotify, Google Podcasts, TuneIn, iHeart and YouTube, which is below.

Other subjects I dive into:

💥 Derrick Henry and the Hall of Fame
💥 What are the limits of the Titans' play-action game
💥 The quarterbacks who await the Titans' defense
💥 Cleveland's defense is legit
💥 Meet the backup long-snapper

The Paul Kuharsky Podcast: Titans' Wasp Stings

The Paul Kuharsky PodcastNASHVILLE, Tenn. -- A lack of a dominant offensive tackle means a quality pass rusher is going to require chip help, and chip help means an eligible receiver is going to be limited in what he can do as an option for the offense.

We start this week's podcast looking at chips from that perspective, and also from the perspective of the Titans defense, where Jeffery Simmons said he can regard a back or tight end trying to slow him as a wasp sting that may hurt a little bit but also wears off.

The new episode awaits you on Apple, Spotify, Google Podcasts, TuneIn, iHeart and YouTube, which is below.

Other subjects I dive into:

💥 Backside wide receivers can be open and helpless
💥 What does a great run defense mean if you give up a bunch of big passes?
💥 Lack of wide receiver separation

It's all brought to you by Jasper's.

Podcast: The Titans' New Kicker, New Bears And New Youth

The Paul Kuharsky PodcastNASHVILLE, Tenn. --  Nick Folk makes field goals from 40 yards and in. He tried 60 in the last four years for New England, and he made all 60.

So the Titans should feel great about their new kicker in that department.

He was also 36 of 40 from 40-49 and 12 of 17 from 50 and over.

But Folk will turn 39 on Nov. 5. His kickoff leg has been poor for the last four years when his punter has not handled the duties, with just a 12.2 percent touchback rate. Also, oddly, he missed 11 extra points.

He spoke on Thursday about these issues, and that's where we begin this week's edition of the podcast.

The new episode awaits you on Apple, Spotify, Google Podcasts, TuneIn, iHeart and YouTube, which is also embedded below.

Other subjects I dive into:

💥 The two new veteran additions on defense from Chicago.
💥 The five undrafted players who made the 53-man roster.
💥 Monty Rice's odd situation.
💥 Dillon Radunz quickly growing in importance.
💥 Two guys the Titans wanted and didn't get.

Podcast: Titans' DeAndre Hopkins Living Up to Billing So Far

The Paul Kuharsky PodcastNASHVILLE, Tenn. -- DeAndre Hopkins still has to do it when it counts, of course. But all indications through training camp are that he can and will.

In practices he's looked like the super-reliable, got-get-it receiver the Titans were hoping for when they landed him late, and with injuries to Treylon Burks and Kyle Philips that may limit the receiving roster at the start of the season, Hopkins will be even more important than we anticipated.

That's where we begin this week's edition of the podcast.

The new episode awaits you on Apple, Spotify, Google Podcasts, TuneIn, iHeart and YouTube, which is also embedded below.

Other subjects I dive into:

💥 The kicker issue, what the division has done at the spot and what the franchise has done the last four years compared to the 26 before that.
💥 Teair Tart seems poised for a pass-rushing breakout and could make the front-four five deep.
💥 A Tyjae Spears prediction and a back-of-roster read.

The Paul Kuharsky Podcast: Mike Vrabel's Clever Idea For The Titans

The Paul Kuharsky PodcastNASHVILLE, Tenn. -- The NFL brain trust works and works -- or so it would have us believe -- to find ways to get minority candidates better opportunities to show they can be capable head coaches.

Then Mike Vrabel casually walks in and hands the reigns for the Titans' first preseason game to his assistant head coach and defensive line coach Terrell Williams. Boom, good idea, executed without committee conversation or fanfare.

That's where we start this week's podcast.

The new episode awaits you on Apple, Spotify, Google Podcasts, TuneIn, iHeart and YouTube, which is below.

Other subjects I dive into:

💥 Deep thoughts on several wide receivers
💥 Has situational play started to separate Will Levis?
💥 A visit with undrafted corner Anthony Kendall from Baldwin Wallace

The Paul Kuharsky Podcast: Parsing And Predicting The Titans

The Paul Kuharsky PodcastNASHVILLE, Tenn. -- The things Mike Vrabel and Shane Bowen recently said about Kristian Fulton seem to suggest some things about cornerback as he heads into his fourth year.

Might they believe he's not handled the multiplicity of the coverage well in the past in part because of focus issues? Do they think that aside from being injury-prone he's not been in good enough condition?  

That's where we start this week's podcast.

The new episode awaits you on Apple, Spotify, Google Podcasts, TuneIn, iHeart and YouTube, which is below.

Other subjects I dive into:

💥 Are we over-projecting Chig Okonkwo's potential numbers?
💥 A potentially emergent receiver
💥 The Titans need to find a way to hold an off-site training camp practice that's open to all fans in the future.
💥 Would you take a medicine whose potential side effects included temporary inability to move or talk?
