    We're tied for second with the Seahawks and Texans. The Vikes have seven.

    Also worth mentioning:

    The Titans' D is tied for #3 in sacks (10).

    Opposing QB's have a passer rating of 62.8 (2nd lowest in the league), and have completed only 52.4% of their passes (4th lowest).

    I don't put a lot of faith in preseason statistics or records.....but I do think you can tell a lot about a team's character.

    This defense is going to be an extremely aggressive, hard-hitting, ball-hawking unit. I do think opponents will be able to move the ball on them, and will put up decent yardage totals...but I also think the Titans will be in the league's top three in turnover margin, and will win games simply by taking the ball away and eliminating scoring opportunities for the opposing team.

    We will see a number of games won with big defensive plays, and teams will be driven crazy by the Titans' ability to generate turnovers seemingly at will. In all seriousness, it wouldn't surprise me if these guys end up with 50+ takeaways this year.

    ^^^ I totally agree... very much like the '99 defense I think. We gave up tons of yards in the air, but also came away with picks left and right. That's fine with me - as we saw last year in games where the offense did struggle, turnovers can easily win a game you have no business winning. I don't care where Griffin plays at this point, but he looks primed to force a fumble or come away with an INT in virtually every game. Got to have him in there, but Finny, KVB, Hope - all those guys put together will make for a very exciting season.

    yea, the vikes are creating turnover's left and right, they will be a scary team come regular season.
