If Mett had 350 yards and 4 TDs, you think this would be an issue?

Also, you don't realize tons of guys all over the league are doing this?

Explain why it would be. What was so important that he didn't have 30 seconds of free time to do that? Do players also not go to the bathroom before the game so they can focus?

What about players walking around the field with their headphones on before the game? Talk about locker room cancer stuff right there.

Like you have any fricking clue what an NFL locker room is like.

Difference between taking selfies with a fan and taking one of yourself and posting it to IG

If he threw for 350 yards and 4 TDs, he woudln't get respect because he took a selfie?

It was an issue before he even played, didn't the article say the Titans made him cut his hair. I remember Mett having some of these same appearance issues when he was at LSU. If you don't look the part then appearance will be the first thing people attack when things don't go well.

I know where Watt and the Titans coach are coming from so I'd say I have a better understanding than you do.

This avoids my question, fwiw.

When things don't go well. So the issue is not the appearance, it's the "things not going well"

So you don't know shite, got it.

I bet I know more from the current player that I shared a driveway with the past two years than you do.

Well, stupid people may do that. I think it's great, because it helps me identify idiots.

He's a rookie. He took a picture looking like a total idiot and posted in to social media. Easy to see why someone more established in the league would have an issue with it. Or no?

The quarterback is the leader of the franchise. You can't have the face of your franchise acting a clown. And that's exactly how he was presenting himself, as a silly caricature. The Titans are in the process of giving Mett a trial run to see if he has the potential to lead their franchise in the future, or are they going to draft a top qb prospect in the next draft. One would think Mett would take this opportunity seriously.

No, not even close.

Why would anyone worry about a pictures someone takes on Social Media that doesn't have something incriminating in it? That's 8th grade girl gossip stuff.

So if he had a great game and the Titans won, then he had 5 more great games and the Titans kept winning, the issue would be what, exactly?
