We were definitely disappointed in the run game last week.  Murray did not look right but Henry was pretty solid as usual.  Regardless, it was week one.  No need to hit the panic button.   I think you all have probably been watching football long enough to know that week 1 is not always the greatest indicator of how the season is going to play out.

This is true, just as 2012-2016 is not always the greatest indicator of how the 2017 season will play out.

No shame in Tennessee losing to Oakland.  That can easily happen to a good team, and I think Tennessee is a pretty good team.

It's also true we aren't likely to record another ten sacks against Tennessee this Sunday (though I would love to be wrong and see the Jaguars record an even dozen on you guys).  But I believe we match up pretty well against you.

The one defensive concern I have is stopping the run.  But I think we can pressure Mariota and cover the receivers.  I also think we'll have success moving the football.
