What has become of the mighty Tennessee Titans. This is a team that opened up the season undefeated through the first two months of the NFL season in 2008.
An amazing defensive unit, two powerful running backs in Chris Johnson and LenDale White, and a team led by the wise ways of accomplished head coach Jeff Fisher.
Many thought this was a Super Bowl team last season. I think I thought so myself. They made a few changes during the off-season that seemed positive.
The running game of the Titans is more dangerous, as Chris Johnson and LenDale White are a formidable running duo. The Titans' defense has been good at stopping the run but not much else. The Titans are among the worst in the NFL in points per game allowed and passing yards per game allowed.
They don't seem to be doing anything different then last year - which might be the problem this year.
With the loss of DT Albert Haynesworth, the Titans defense may not be as strong as it once was but they still have defensive skill players such as Cortland Finnegan, Chris Hope, Keith Bulluck, and Nick Harper.
While it's true that the Texans seem to play the Titans well (think back to that nail biter last season with all of those Rob Bironas field goals), the Titans looked pretty dreadful during the loss. Their running game was fine, but the defense was notably weaker than that of last season. They looked like one of the worst defensive units in the entire NFL.
After two weeks of the NFL season, the Titans find themselves in the cellar of the AFC South. Quite the change from last year. - 30542
