There was a lot of buzz around Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley in the preseason. He and Cam Ward had an immediate connection dating back to OTAs. It hasn’t translated through the first two weeks of the regular season. A big reason for that is that Ridley has dropped multiple passes.
Ridley is getting paid to be a star, #1 receiver. They haven’t gotten that from him through the first two weeks of the season. Former Titans Nate Washington says Ridley needs a reality check:
If this offense is going to be good, Ridley has to step up and be the guy he is getting paid to be. That needs to start tomorrow against the Indianapolis Colts. There aren’t many must-win games in the NFL in September, but this is pretty much a must-win game for the Titans. The Colts have been really good in the first two games, but they aren’t as good as they have played. The Titans have three straight on the road after this one.
There is a lot of outside noise around this team right now. They can quiet a lot of that with a win. If they are going to do that, they need Ridley to step up and lead the offense.
