Agreed. Jags were playing vanilla having wrapped up the division by that second game and probably weren't terribly motivated although they should have won anyway given that they gifted 4 turnovers to the tacks. In the first game they dominated by running against the Jags before we got the running defense sorted out. Henry is a monster no doubt but that would have been a different game if we'd played them after we added Darius.  Very little doubt that the tacks would have gone down hard against the Jags in the playoffs.

As far as their overall talent level, their passing offense/defense are both pretty soft and I don't see that changing much this year given Mariotta will be learning a whole new system and is going to have to start making some strides to avoid a "bust" label at the rate things are going. On defense Malcolm Butler wasn't a bad pickup but he can't do it all himself and I liked Evans in the draft but he's a rookie and is going to be learning on the fly.

Titans secondary will shock some people. 
The butler signing lets em move ryan back inside where he belongs. Jackson played well for a rookie he will be a beast year 2. Safeties are solid. Weakest link is cyprian and they drafted his replacement. Titans secondary is 1000 times better shape than they've had in a long time maybe ever.
Add the upgrades at linebacker and the offseason goals of shutting down the short pass and the upgrades to the coaching staff... tacks may just show you jags week 3 who woulda shoulda coulda...
