Getting prison raped by Henry and allowing a back-breaking conversation to a TE out of Harvard played a pretty big part in the team taking an L.This video made a lot more sense a week ago, but our defense wasn't the reason we were knocked out on Saturday.

The pass defense? The Titans had a whopping 72 yards through the air.The defense was a big part of why they were knocked out on Saturday.
Yes but when you choose to not play for 4 downs with 3 mins left and hand the ball back to your defense, you expect them to stop a 3rd & long throw from freakin' Tannehill.The pass defense? The Titans had a whopping 72 yards through the air.
How many on the ground?The pass defense? The Titans had a whopping 72 yards through the air.
The OP is about pass defense. They got gashed on the ground. Over 180 yards. Not sure if that was partly a result of the gameplan (ala SB XXV)?How many on the ground?
I realize that. The contention was that the defense wasn’t a reason why we lost. It clearly was.The OP is about pass defense. They got gashed on the ground. Over 180 yards. Not sure if that was partly a result of the gameplan (ala SB XXV)?

I remember someone on here posting that they weren’t worried about Derrick Henry as we had been stopping the run better recently. That’s all well and good for some white guy on the Dolphins I’ve never heard of and a rookie and 300 year old Frank Gore on the Bills but Henry is a different story. He was 3-4 yards past the LOS before we even got a hand on him on a lot of carries.I don’t know if I’d go that far.

Derrick Henry dominated, but it didn't translate to the scoreboard. Had we scored one more field goal than we did and won, all the buzz would be how BB is a genius for "letting Henry get empty yards". That's on the offense.
That was definitely part of it. The Titans averaged 2.06 WRs per play and the Patriots used 2.47 CBs per play. You don’t use an extra CB on 41% of the snaps unless stopping the pass is a much higher priority than stopping the run.The OP is about pass defense. They got gashed on the ground. Over 180 yards.
