Tennessee Titans: Exotic Smash Mouth Defense?

The Tennessee Titans are looking to employ an exotic smash mouth approach this season, and I’m not just talking about running the ball down the opponent’s throat.

Yes, head coach Mike Mularkey used the term to describe the Titans’ style of play this year on offense after having the interim tag removed this offseason.

And immediately after becoming the full-time coach, Mularkey was faced with a potential quandary on the other side of the ball.

Dick LeBeau was hired by Mularkey’s predecessor Ken Whisenhunt to be the team’s assistant head coach / overseer of the defense in 2015.
