    In this breakdown of Hooker you will see a clear reason our defense failed. Add in a lack of pressure to misuse of personnel and you end up with a cluster.

    The very first graph... Kevin Byard only played FS 44.9% of the time..

    Idiots trying to say Byard regressed... Geniuses said it was the moron coach playing him out of position...

    Excellent breakdown.
    YouTube - no flag films. Has a bunch of titans including their draft picks.

    For this video, I do wonder how much the lack of practice before the season and how much the injuries effected the performance of the D.
    Overall, the disguises seem like they should have worked better but not good execution.

    A pass rush would definitely help goad the QB into some bad throws and rushed reads too.

    this 'pass rush' thing you mentioned....

    like the analytics department the Titans claim not to have one.

    Hooker replacing Vaccaro should be a plus as long as Byard plays most of the snaps at FS. That robber coverage should be used in a limited way.

    IMO JRob had a fantastic draft with Farley, Molden and Breeze. Add in Fulton and that is a major haul of talent and depth. Signing Jenkins basically replaced Butler with a comparable but cheaper option. We should also have an improved pass rush with Dupree and Autry.

    JRob did about as well as you could bringing in what we needed on defense with the CAP stress.

    I would agree with this if Dupree isn’t a gimpy so-and-so non-factor this year.

    This is where I hope Schwartz asserts himself.

    I'm not giving them a pass for lack of preparation. Everyone else in the league had a weird, shortened offseason too.

    Agree on the play call not necessarily being wrong, but execution was terrible. That's still somewhat on the coaches for not coaching guys up and fixing those problems throughout the season, but the players definitely carry a big part of the blame too.

    Byard is a center fielder... he should never be anywhere else.
