Worst football takes, ever?
I know the Titans pretty well. I've been on this site for over a decade, lived in Nashville 30 years, attended the first regular season home game, and have followed them the entire time. I know their personnel and the context of their wins and losses. So, I know that bringing up Cincy's loss to the Browns is about as useful as me bringing up your loss to the Steelers (who are a terrible team) or like bringing up both of our losses to the Jets. In other words, none of those games have very much to do with where each team is now. So, moving on...
What can you all tell me about the Titans D, schematically? Is it pretty set from week to week or are they flexible depending on opponent? I'm curious how they might try to handle our receivers. Lots of zone? Man-to-man?
We can and will generate pressure with 4 men, unlike last year. We will also blitz some. We play man and zone and sometimes both at same time. Last half the season the titans have been top 3 to 5 defense in the league. All pro safety and hooker is underated.Worst football takes, ever?

I do think Bengals have advantage at qb, wr ( although if Jones stays on field and Brown is balling it is much closer than people think, Boyd is a stud #3 wr that gives Bengals advantage), and Big advantage at kicker.
I do think titans defense is much better and titans offensive line is better and if Henry is back we have best rushing attack in the league.
Saturday is going to be fun! I do think the Bengals could have issues with physical play in the trenches both sides of the ball. As is most games the team that does not turn it over wins. I do think Bengals have great passing attack and Joe Mixon is better than most of america thinks. I fear him in passing game more than run game
LOLAgree with most of this. I can't believe you all have 2-calves Bullock
Our D is a bit underrated. They're a pretty solid unit whose biggest weakness, really, is not having another stud pass rushers beyond Hendrickson. If you're able to neutralize him, then our rush loses some teeth and you can start to pick us apart with longer developing routes.
Even so, they've had some dominant performances this year and have good talent at all three levels.
We've been very solid against the run this year (DJ Reader is a stud), but the DT injuries we are dealing with right now are a problem.
Yep, Jacobs was going against our depleted d-line, hence my concern. We had 4 d-linemen out (3 DTs) and the guys were completely gassed. Hoping to get Tupou (big-bodied run stuffer) back this week to help a bit, but if it's a close game then I expect Henry to be able to wear them down in typical Henry style.Skyline you may disagree but Josh Jacobs to me is not a great back, but he was running it right down Bengals throat but holding calls over and over are what stopped that not Bengal D.
I think you all are top ten in run D but bottom 5 in rushing attempts against. Which is a tribute to your passing game and ability to score.
Game I think titans are watching is Bengals Chargers. That was bad! Turnovers protecting qb and running football are the main keys to me. Good news for us is the crew that officiated your game is done for post season!
That does it.Agree with most of this. I can't believe you all have 2-calves Bullock

You forgot to tell him how wonderful Todd Downing is and how much you love him.We have played a lot of Cover 1 & cover 3 this year. Also a decent amount of cover 4. But seems like we have done a much better job of disguising the coverage pre snap. Moving our safeties around to make the QB think and hold the ball a little longer post snap.
Show cover 4 and drop a safety down to play robber and it’s man to man or cover 3. Stuff like that. We also run a lot of stunts up front with our DL. But can’t do that on 3rd and short. That only works when the play takes time to develop. Which I think can be a good neutralizer for the Bengals down the field passing attack.
Fulton and Chase should be a fun matchup. Jackrabbit is not bad but not great either. He can be burned but overall has done a a decent job keeping everything in front of him.
Our safeties are playing really good football and help in the run game too.
Our LB’s are mostly run stuffers but David Long Jr can hold his own in pass coverage. Titans have actually been one of the best teams in the NFL against TE’s this year.
We have had some inconsistencies in the slot. Molden is a rookie and has been up and down. But we do have some depth that con rotate in if needed.
