Quote:You could definitely make a case for them just like any other team in our division this year, but I don't think they're gonna have the defense yet to do what they want to do effectively.

 

The only case for the titans would be to imagine that all of the other teams in the division stayed the same or got worse, and I can't see that happening. However, like you said, the chargers first team offense went through the titans defense like a hot knife through butter. The titans open at home against the vikings, another team with mediocre at best QB play and a run focused offense. If they win that one it will at least show they can win against another team built in their image, but they won't have a real measuring stick game for how they will fare against modern pass first/defend the pass teams until week 3 when they face the Raiders.
