Tennessee is 9 and 0, are they really that good?

[Kilyin]

Watered down AFC division?

Lots of teams tried Kerry Collins, maybe he's better than they thought?

Is their defense the best in the NFL? Is Albert Haynesworth the Troy Polamalu of Defensive Tackles?

Lendale White and Chris Johnson, do you take them over Barber and Felix Jones? No way in hell, so it's Kerry Collins and the defense.

9 and 0 today, 10 and 6 through December. Never know what could happen.

Chris Johnson and Lendale white have better combined numbers than Felix and MB3 this year......

Felix got hurt, and got 0 touches against the Commanders. I still have to take Barber and FJ.

they are not that good individually...but they are very good as a team. they play together as 11 on the field, especially on defense and ST. Their WRs suck. Their TEs are good, not great. Their RBs are above avg. Their QB is a savvy vet. They have a kicker who can boom it from 60 and is very accurate from inside 50. They have a very good punter. They are extremely well coached and prepared. They do not kill themselves with mistakes like turnovers and penalties....but they will force you into mistakes. They do a great job of playing the field position battle. If vanilla is your flavor of choice, I give you the Tennessee offense. They wear you down with their style of play. If you shut down the pass, they run all over you. If you shut down the run, the pass all over you. Their defense gives you very little.

Honestly, this team is LSU or Alabama under Saban....low on flash and sportscenter highlights, but high on substance and efficiency.

Tony Romo would pick that team apart. They have earned their record, but I would be upset if Dallas didn't take them.

even after today, when they combined for like 30 carries and 16 yds?

the way our OL is playing, the Tennessee D would tenderize Romo like he was cube steak.

 

[Mr Cowboy]

As BP would say, they are what their record says they are.

Mos importantly, they paly as a team, and have an outstanding head coach.

 

[Dave_in-NC]

They are 9-0. I would say they must be pretty good.

Yeah, I"m counting on Kozier and a healthy Adams. If Dallas blocked them, they would beat them.

The Packers kicked 2 FGs inside the 15 yard line and lost by 3 in OT.

They are good, but they live on the edge.

Having said this, I don't see anyone in the AFC who they should fear.

Plus, they are helping us out by beating the NFC North.

Haynesworth makes them tick. Finnegan is really good. Bullock and Van Den Bosch are really good.

Devin Hester had Finnegan beat for a TD on a deep post today, but the ball was thrown really bad.

You forgot about the HC. Fisher is a very very good HC. That can make up for lesser talent on the field.

 

[dbair1967]

Very well coached team in all areas. They dont make mistakes, their OL is good and their defense is outstanding.

Middle of the pack talent, but Fisher is really coaching them up. He's the anti-Wade.

I don't believe the hype. They rely on the run to win. They didn't today but I don't buy the hype. Even their defense. They're a pretty solid on defense. Top 5 defense. But nothing dominant. Even they acknowledge they haven't been as good as they can be. There's no dominant team in this league right IMO. That's why I like the Cowboys chances. Cowboys potentially can be dominant. Especially on offense.

 

[28 Joker]

You guys are making solid points about the Titans. If they played in the NFC East, which they don't, every team in our division would beat them, at least one time. I think some team in the East would sweep them.

Cleveland had our team beat on passes too, but their WR dropped the ball... What is your point?

So then we live on the edge to, because we played close to Cincinatti and Arizona with Tony Romo, and they are worse defensively than the Titans...

If any team blocked the opposing teams OL, they would be in pretty good shape. It is much easier said than done.

BTW, if Kosier is the end-all and be-all of this line, our OL is way over-rated. Last year, he was considered the weak link.

Winning attitude is developed in this manner. The Giants won last year in a similar manner, and it has only carried over into this year. They improved in every area from last year to this year...

It is the very reason why Kerry Collins came out and smoked the Bears today...

Exacty... Jeff Fisher is probably top 3 coach in the league. There is a reason the Titans signed him to an extension when there was news he might jump ship...
