    Posted by ESPN.com's Paul Kuharsky NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Line play has keyed the Titans' 5-0 start.
    The Titans are averaging three sacks a game and all but one of their 15 have come from linemen.
    The Titans have allowed only two sacks all season.
    The plus-13 differential is the league's best.
    It's a pretty telling stat.
    Of the top 11 teams in sack differential, the worst record is 3-3 (San Diego is plus-9; New Orleans is plus-7).
    And the five teams who are minus-10 or worse (San Francisco, Kansas City, Detroit, New England and Cincinnati) have a combined record of 6-21.
    Kansas City could help the Titans grow the number -- the Chiefs have allowed 15 sacks in five games and have taken quarterbacks down only three time.
    These are numbers I'll keep my eye on all season.
