Last year the Tennessee Titans had the 27th ranked defense in the league in yards allowed, giving up 373 yards a game. After five games with legendary coach Dick LeBeau overseeing things, the Titans are allowing just 313.6 yards a game…good for third best in the league.
Free agent acquisitions Perrish Cox (cb), Brian Orakpo (lb), and Da’Norris Searcy (s) have all contributed heavily. Linebacker Derrick Morgan was re-signed, and is well on his way to a career year in sacks.
And defensive end Jurrell Casey has returned to his 2013 Pro Bowl form.
