'Shit's Getting Fucking Crazy' - Calvin Ridley Went To The Media And Subtly Demanded To Get The Ball More After 0 Catches Against The Colts

Did you remember Calvin Ridley is on the Titans? I ask because he's for sure one of those guys that each week I catch him running a route and go oh yeah, that's where he is now. I also bring it up because he has 9 catches, 141 yards and a touchdown on the year - or a healthy Malik Nabers statline for a game. Now he's coming off a game with 8 targets, all coming late, and subtly demanding the ball more. Hard to tell if he's frustrated here or not, plays it close to the chest here. 

I don't know man, seems like you may want to get him a little more involved. Then again if you want to pay any of us $90 million for an 0-0-0 statline I'm game. I get it, it's not all on receivers. Line can't suck, quarterback has to get you the ball, all that stuff. But did you really think Ridley wouldn't explode at some point? The man wants to be a WR1 and this is exactly what WR1's do. They demand the ball. 

Also can someone smarter than me explain with a valid point about why they fired Mike Vrabel? There was a whole claim about being more modern and all this shit and the Titans basically run a 1960s offense and give up. Gotta wonder how many times Levis tries to force a ball to Ridley against the Bills now. It's public and it's pretty clear what he wants.
