I don't see the tacks' D standing up well to Tyreek Hill/Kareem Hunt or Antonio Brown/L.Bell combinations. 
Bilichick and Brady will just identify the weakest spots of the tacks' secondary and attack them relentlessly. 

But hey, any given Sunday, right?

Hmmm.  Antonio Brown hung 144 yards and 3 TDs on that vaunted secondary - And Bell tacked on 103 APY.  Just as I suggested they would on the first page of this thread.

That "mid-season roll" seems to have been derailed.

Was one game.  On a short week.  At Heinz field.  Really poor offensive performance for sure and the defense started to cave in the second half, but I'd pump the brakes a little on the whole "derailed" thing.  Another poor performance against the Colts this Sunday and we can start talking about the train coming off the tracks.

I'll take a team that has only been shown up bad one half and has blown out the completion multiple times against both good and bad teams over a team that hasn't scared anyone in any week while their qb play and running game has been on a solid decline. While Titans have won games, they weren't making any statements. Week two was too long ago to be the only thing to cling on to. The point differential isn't lying. Two very bad losses are still bad losses while ours is good because of some really good wins. So we have had really good wins. And you have had big losses. That reveals something you can't just ignore. Even if they beat the jags again and have our number, this Titans team isn't as good as you wanna defend in homeristic fashion.

Sounds an awful lot like what I heard in 1998/1999.  We've been here before haven't we...
