As a whole, their pass D is what has been impressive... ranking 5th in the league. Their defensive statistics are actually very similar to Jacksonville's if you look at every category.
Tennessee's pass defense has been horrible the past 3 games. Malcolm Butler has been playing the worst football of his career....he has been carrying over his play from last year in New England, which got him benched in the SB. His technique has been horrendous and teams have been attacking him....Luck and TY had a field day a couple weeks back. With this being said, I still think the Titans D plays well enough against Kessler and will get the win. I would expect the Titans to shake off the "New England Hangover" this week, and I think Vrabel will have his boys prepared to play and back on track. If there is one think Mike Vrabel can do well is his scheme his defense. He did an excellent job against his former team-mate, and the GOAT TB12 which is a very,very hard thing to do. I'm willing to bet he wont have a hard time with Kessler. He also played around with the O-Line last week after the half. Think he have may found a winning combo as pass protection improved dramtically after he made the change at the half against the NYJ. Tonight will be a good test for them.
Tennessee at home minus the chalk for 2 units.
