Film Room: RB Jordan Wilkins vs Baltimore Ravens Clayton Geathers Jersey , preseason week two With the news that Marlon Mack may not be ready to start the season the running back position is very much a question mark. Because of this, I thought it would make sense to do some film breakdown of the performance of the running backs from the Colts’ second preseason game against the Ravens. We’ll take a look at Christine Michael, Nyheim Hines, and Jordan Wilkins, and compare their performances and abilities as we prepare for the contest with the 49ers that will likely have a big impact on who gets the lion’s share of the carries once the regular season arrives. Jordan Wilkins – 6’1”, 216lbsJordan Wilkins is, in my opinion, the best back of these three. Given time to develop he might be the best running back on the roster. I’m not ready to write off Marlon Mack, because I believe that he offers a skill set Wilkins doesn’t, however, there are some undeniably great things Wilkins does that none of the others do. This play is a prime example of what there is to love about Wilkins’ ability. On this play the offensive line gets manhandled. Wilkins is hit 3 yards behind the line of scrimmage. His response is to stay balanced, get skinny, and take the ball for a 7-yard gain. We have watched so many backs over the years who have failed to be able to get yards when hit in the backfield that watching Wilkins consistently do this is refreshing.Here we see one of the keys to Wilkins’ success. After the handoff, he has just a moment’s hesitation before he hits the hole. In this case Cheap Ryan Kelly Jersey , that hesitation is enough time for Ryan Kelly to hand off his defender to Quenton Nelson and get his hands on the linebacker at the next level. Then it is just a matter of keeping low and keeping his legs churning, and Wilkins is pushing the pile for another 8 yards.Sometimes patience can be a problem, but here, it simply allows all the proper blocks to develop. It makes the difference between a two yard gain and an 8 yard gain. Maybe over time we will see issues arise because of this hesitation, but they aren’t showing up here.On second and short and in the red zone, Wilkins demonstrates the ability to forgo his patient style and hit the hole when it is there. He manages to get a decent gain as well as a first down, putting the team right on the doorstep of scoring.The biggest issue with backs who hesitate and wait for blocks to develop is that sometimes they do that to a fault. Trent Richardson probably considered himself patient, but mostly he just danced around in the backfield and then slammed into the pile. Here, Wilkins shows that when the pathway is clear, he can be decisive and go.Fumbles are always a concern, and it is definitely something Wilkins has to fix. Despite the outcome being a positive one, running backs coach Tom Rathman will have had some things to say about this play in the meeting room, and you could tell watching Wilkins’ face as he walked off the field that he was pretty irritated about it. This happens, especially with rookies Cheap Quenton Nelson Jersey , but it can’t become a trend. It won’t matter much if he gets ten yards every time he runs the ball if he can’t hold on to it. It doesn’t take long to lose the trust of the coaching staff and fumbling is a quick way to do it. Hopefully this is the worst we see of fumbles for Wilkins.This play represents some improvement over last week. Wilkins struggled in pass protection in his first game, and while this wasn’t great, it was better. Wilkins needs to pick up the defender coming off the edge to buy Brissett some time to step up in the pocket and throw. He is a bit out of position and gets beat, but quickly recovers, and along with a nice move by Brissett, is able to get a block that gets Brissett free. That’s better than Braden Smith can say, since he has to hold his man and gets flagged. Pass protection is something a lot of rookie running backs struggle with. It will be critical that Wilkins develops here, and already we are seeing him do better. With Rathman coaching him up, he should only get better.ConclusionBased on the film we have seen so far, Jordan Wilkins is the hands down best back of these three we have looked at.We have seen him repeat his solid performance two weeks in a row. The only thing left is to see it repeated against top competition. My takeaway from this exercise is that when Robert Turbin returns from suspension and Marlon Mack is healthy, this could be a very impressive running back group, and I expect these rookies to have prominent roles in it. The Titans have assured themselves of a third straight winning season for the first time since moving to Tennessee, and the NFL's longest current winning streak has them playing the final game of the regular season with a playoff berth on the line.They'll find out Sunday night if that's enough to sell-out their home stadium with Titans fans.Safety Kevin Byard believes they've done enough to convince fans to turn out."You have a team that's playing for a playoff spot, be one of the few teams that's going to be in the postseason Nate Hairston Jersey ," Byard said. "I think that's every motivation that everybody in Nashville should be in Nissan Stadium. I think we've done a great job this year and previous years. This game is a playoff game, and I think it's something we're trying to make history right now."The Titans (9-6) will host Indianapolis (9-6) in a win-and-in prime-time showdown on Sunday night; the loser is done for the season. The Titans and Colts will play for at worst the AFC's second wild-card spot and the sixth overall seed with the AFC South title possible if Jacksonville beats Houston.Crazier still, losses by Houston, Baltimore and New England could leave Sunday night's winner not only as a division champ but the No. 2 seed with a first-round bye.It's almost unimaginable for the Titans after being 5-6 and fighting to get to .500 when December started. Now the Titans have won four straight to climb past teams like Cincinnati, Denver, Miami and now Pittsburgh. Only the Colts stand in their way now."We all can recognize we've been in the playoffs now going on five weeks, we've been in the playoffs for the past four weeks," coach Mike Vrabel said.The Titans will have to wait and see if Marcus Mariota is available after a stinger knocked the quarterback out of their 25-16 victory over Washington on Saturday. That was the third game Mariota couldn't finish this season and seventh of his four-year career.Vrabel said Mariota felt better Monday than the quarterback did after his last stinger Nov. 18 in a 38-10 loss in Indianapolis. Mariota didn't miss a start, but the Titans did bring back quarterback Austin Davis who spent two weeks on the active roster in September.Mariota and the Titans are in a similar situation with an extra day to recover between games. Vrabel said they planned to test Mariota on Monday with individual drills while making sure through the rest of the week that the quarterback can do everything needed to play.But the Titans will be without four-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle Jurrell Casey after they placed him on injured reserve Monday with a knee injury aggravated in the fourth quarter against the Redskins. Casey is the secondOne more win ensures a second straight playoff berth for the Titans for the first time 2007 and 2008. This franchise hasn't won five straight since 2009 when the Titans reeled off five straight after starting the season 0-6. This also will be their first Sunday night game since Oct. 11, 2009, when they lost to the Colts 31-9.Safety Kenny Vaccaro has never played in the postseason. He broke his ankle as a rookie with New Orleans and tore an abductor muscle last year."This is like my first playoff game, so I'm excited," Vaccaro said. "We've been in the playoffs the last four weeks if you think about it. Not too long ago we were 5-6 just trying to get back to .500."Follow Teresa M. Walker at teresamwalker
