But because of the FA losses of TE Jonnu Smith and WR Corey Davis,  I think they are further away from the top of the Conference than was the case when the 2020 season playoffs began. Even if their Defense improves, it probably won't be enough of an improvement for them to advance in the playoffs.

Agreed completely. 

It'll actually be interesting to see how their offense responds.  Will they become more run oriented, or will they try breaking in some rookies to maintain balance?

My guess is Todd Downing, the new Offensive Coordinator for Tennessee, is going to try to maintain as much balance as possible.  In most cases, the challenge of an Offensive Coordinator is to try to stay patient with the team's running game. In Downing's case, it's the opposite.

I disagree D6.  Henry got 2000 yards with two backup OT and their TE was hurt most of the second half and AJ Brown had a bum knee all year.  Tannehill is playing elite in TN.  I think their offense will be better if it runs through Henry and AJ Brown more.  They have the best CB in the division now with Farley.  He is their version of Ramsey.

On the other hand, if Tennessee decides to go with a Rookie RT who faced the likes of South Dakota St. and Southern Illinois weekly, opposing Defensive Coordinators will be salivating at the opportunity.

Most rookie CBs go through major growing pains. I anticipate this happening with Caleb Farley, as he missed plenty of college game action with injury. As well as opting out of the 2020 season.
