socaltitan Posted November 30, 2020 Report Share Posted November 30, 2020 Was impressed how they contained Lamar’s running. He ran all over us in the playoff game. They shut him down last week. Link to post Share on other sites

They shut him down last week. I just looked at his rushing stats for the game in that playoff game & didn't realize he had 173 rushing yards 😳. I guess since we were winning the entire game it never really stood out to me. Link to post Share on other sites
SleepingTitan Posted November 30, 2020 Report Share Posted November 30, 2020 I told you monkeys long ago that coverage was critical. Everyone thinks that the Dline gets sacks, but it's the DB's that cover for sacks to develop, in the same way that offensive linemen, conversely, cover for pass completions to develop. King and Borders. Now if the safeties can start trusting those guys, it will open up a whole new fucking ball game. Mythos27, and Eighteen 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Stan Posted November 30, 2020 Report Share Posted November 30, 2020 (edited) No defense is still very bad. We were done to ravens 21-10 until the offense stepped up and we were allowing the Colts up and down the field until kern pinned them deep and the Colts dropped passes. This defense if it continues this way will still give up chunks of yards and points. They key has been the offense has scored points. We’ve seen when the offense doesn’t sustain drives defense falls behind like the Bengals game like the steeler game. Edited November 30, 2020 by Stan Link to post Share on other sites
Stan Posted November 30, 2020 Report Share Posted November 30, 2020 The key to our success is still the offense scoring points and finishing drives with touchdowns allowing the defense to bring pressure and blitz. I’ve noticed we only are blitzing when we are up and hardly ever when we are behind. To me the biggest thing to help this defense will be can this offense continue to score 6. You won’t change my mind otherwise. Offense is our defense. Link to post Share on other sites
Rogue Posted November 30, 2020 Report Share Posted November 30, 2020 Not willing to say they’ve turned it around. They’ve got to show consistency before I can make that statement. IowaOiler, and Johnson 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Starkiller Posted November 30, 2020 Report Share Posted November 30, 2020 I’m withholding judgement until I see the D vs Chubb and Hunt. Link to post Share on other sites
titanruss Posted November 30, 2020 Report Share Posted November 30, 2020 We still do t get a pass rush but our dbs are looking real solid finally. When/if adoree is back it will be pretty shutdown Link to post Share on other sites
OILERMAN Posted November 30, 2020 Report Share Posted November 30, 2020 The defense is certainly better. Yesterday early Rivers really had some awesome ball placement when the receivers were covered pretty well. After the early drives the Titans really clamped down and the offense got a lead and forced Rivers to have to go down field more. Once Vrabel gets a good lead he notoriously plays soft coverages and lets the other team dink and dunk and burn block. He also completely turns to the running game. Vrabel is as opposed to giving up big plays like no one I've ever seen. The Titans are #1 in give aways, one of the least sacked teams and has a formula that absolutely focuses on not beating themselves. Even with a big lead he's not going to risk anything so you get games like the Bears and yesterday where the other team same some scores late but it's too little because they use so much clock doing it. The stats always look worse than the defense actually played. Alcibiades, Justafan, Eighteen, and 1 other 4 Link to post Share on other sites

Johnson Posted November 30, 2020 Report Share Posted November 30, 2020 Not so fast my friend!!! We need to show more consistency as a Defensive team! WG53, and NFL2K5 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Mythos27 Posted November 30, 2020 Report Share Posted November 30, 2020 Turned it around just means we are no longer headed in the wrong direction, not that we've already arrived at the destination (great/top 5 defense). We certainly have turned it around and the defense has played well enough to win for a few weeks now. prometheus, MikeKeith2020, and IowaOiler 3 Link to post Share on other sites

At the beginning of the game teams have their whole playbook, so the Titans keep it basic. Later on they seem to dial it up. Link to post Share on other sites
