The Titans allowed 480 total yards but forced two turnovers in Week 2's 33-30 win over the Jaguars.

Analysis: The Titans let QB Gardner Minshew throw like crazy, but they managed to record two sacks and two interceptions against the emerging signal caller. The upcoming matchup against the Vikings is quite intriguing, too, as QB Kirk Cousins has a mere 61.9 passer rating and 2:4 TD:INT ratio through two games. However, the Titans will still be without top CB Adoree' Jackson (knee), and the Vikings still have stud WR Adam Thielen, so there's plenty of risk for the Titans D/ST. Nevertheless, it's a viable…read more

The Titans allowed 323 total yards and forced a turnover in Week 1's 16-14 win over the Broncos.

Analysis: The Titans got a bit of a gift since WR Courtland Sutton (shoulder) was unavailable and rookie WR Jerry Jeudy dropped a pair of passes, but they were otherwise pretty sturdy. They didn't sack QB Drew Lock, though, and they only forced one turnover -- a fumble. Nevertheless, this unit has a high-floor matchup against the Jaguars on deck, but it may not be as appealing as it was two weeks ago. QB Gardner Minshew was nearly perfect in Week 1, completing 19 of 20 passes for 173 yards, three scores…read more

The Titans will face the Broncos on the road Monday.

Analysis: The Titans ranked 10th last year with 23 turnovers and 12th with 20.6 points allowed per game, and despite proving themselves against the mighty Ravens in the postseason, they're still underrated. The late addition of edge rusher Jadeveon Clowney is a major boost for the Titans' already sturdy defense, especially on passing downs since QB Drew Lock is still raw and his top pass-catcher WR Courtland Sutton (shoulder) won't be 100 percent regardless. The Titans D/ST should have the edge even on…read more

The Titans ranked 12th in 2019 with 20.7 points allowed per game.

Analysis: The Titans' defense was responsible for taking down both the Patriots and the Ravens -- allowing a combined 25 points and posting five turnovers in the process -- in the playoffs before ultimately meeting their match in the Chiefs. Their starters remained the same for the most part, although they added Vic Beasly (undisclosed), who may not be ready for the start of the season. This should be a stable fantasy unit that's fit for streaming, and we should know early what this unit's potential is,…read more

The Titans allowed 38 points and 377 total yards to the Texans in Week 16's loss.

Analysis: The main question here is whether the Texans roll out their starters. We'll know before kickoff whether the Texans lock up the No. 3 seed in the AFC -- if the Chiefs beat the Chargers, there's nothing left for the Texans to accomplish. Furthermore, Deshaun Watson (back) and DeAndre Hopkins (illness) are banged up. If there's nothing to play for, it's tough to see how they would be on the field. Check back before streaming the Titans D/ST, but if those two are indeed gearing up, it'll be tough…read more

The Titans allowed 24 points and 374 total yards to the Texans in Week 15's loss.

Analysis: They allowed their highest point total since Week 10 against the Chiefs, but the Titans managed to force two turnovers. They've forced a turnover in all but one game this season, including five multi-turnover games. Those are nice accolades, but now they're up against the Saints, who rank fifth with first with just eight turnovers while Drew Brees sports a league-low 2.8-percent sack rate. That leaves little upside for Titans D/ST, and the floor is in the negatives since the Saints rank fifth…read more

The Titans allowed 21 points and 256 total yards in Week 14's win over the Raiders.

Analysis: The Titans have now won three straight games since upsetting the Chiefs on Nov. 10, and they didn't allow more than 21 points in a game during that stretch. They appear to have a steady ceiling, posting 10 straight games with a turnover while sporting a middling pass rush (35 sacks). The Texans struggled immensely against the Broncos last week, including three turnovers, but they should be better prepared for this divisional clash. There's a reasonable upside since Deshaun Watson is sacked on…read more

The Titans allowed 17 points and 391 total yards to the Colts in Week 13's win.

Analysis: The Titans' defense forced three turnovers and scored a touchdown off a blocked field goal to put together one of its best fantasy performances of the season. It's had a high floor all year, allowing 19.5 PPG (seventh). The Raiders' offense has been a mess lately with just 29 combined points over the past three games while coughing up the ball seven times. Their ground game is one of the best around, though, with 122.3 rushing YPG, but the Titans can hold it in check with 4.0 YPC allowed. If…read more

The Titans allowed 20 points and 369 total yards in Week 12's win over the Jaguars.

Analysis: The Titans have now forced a turnover in eight straight games, tacking onto their already strong pass-rushing metrics (30 sacks). It's been tough to force Jacoby Brissett into mistakes, however, as he ranks 10th-best in both interception rate (1.4 percent) and sack rate (5.3 percent). The Colts haven't been high-scoring lately, though, as they've scored 17 or fewer points in three of their last five outings, while they've finished below 200 passing yards in each contest. The Titans have allowed…read more

The Titans allowed 32 points and 530 yards in Week 10's win over the Chiefs.

Analysis: The Titans were able to force a turnover in the contest, but they relied on their offense to pull off the win. They'll get a second shot at Jacksonville after allowing 20 points while failing to record a turnover or a sack in Week 3's matchup. Gardner Minshew was under center then, and now Nick Foles will be the signal caller. Foles doesn't have a large enough sample to judge this year, but he's a strong enough quarterback to take on poor secondaries. The Titans' defense is ranked 21st in the…read more
