    I like our D, but I feel really bad for the Cardinals QBs, their OLine is HORRIBLE. So I'm reserving judgement on how well our DLine is for now. Solid performance against a weaker team however.

    The Cardinals look like a legitimate contender for the #1 pick. Way too early to think that this Titans defense is a force. Lots of promise being shown, but they still have a long way to go.

    We are not there yet,but it is good to see improvment in all 3 areas of the team. The growth arrow is pointing up finally.

    Even though the cards are garbage at OL, I'm sure they knew that also. By making the kind of big plays they were making, hopefully it will carry over into Week 1. I'm assuming that the last preseason game, the starters will not play as much as they did this past one.

    I'm encouraged by the latest two games from the first-team DL but the Titans have played two of the worst offenses in the league.

    Great for confidence but I think we'll know a lot more after the Pats game.

    Don't the Pats have O-Line issues as well??

    I'm not judging our performance solely off of last night's win. I'm making my assesments after our D-Line has consistently gotten pressure. In all 3 games this year we've gotten to the QB. When the coaching staff said they wanted a faster start in game 2, our D responded. And in all 3 games, we've been getting pressure with our front 4 mainly, not through a lot of blitzing.

    I'm also very pleased with how we're coming up with turnovers each game. We're making QB's pay for bad passes and hitting them even when they make completions. That's gotta be frustrating for a QB. We haven't played a QB for a full game yet, but there's no way Skelton would've made it through all 4 quarters if we would've kept playing at that level.

    I'm on the bandwagon.

    Lets see what we doing vs a good offensive line. Cards OL is probably the worst in the league, especially that LT. Bucs have two really good guards in Nicks & Joseph, and I thought our interior DL did solid. Didn't watch the Seahawks game. Wimbley looks to be a great signing. Marks is showing up. Casey is solid (hopefully he's healthy). Morgan still has alot to proove, but looks to be playing with fire under him. That fires name is Egboh.

    As for the seconday.. still making mistakes. Like with Campbell and Rojo let fitz walk behind him. Also happened to McCourty, luckily we got a sack before Fitz got a 60 yard TD. Griffin actually has looked solid tackling. Babs is already hurt. Also still alot of questions with our CBs after McC and Vern.

    Very impressed with our LB group, no complaints. McCarthy is killing it. Spoon, Ayers, and Brown are all solid. Shaw and Diles look great on ST.

    Morgan had a real good game too - he forced the one Wimbley sack and when i focused in on watching him i didn't notice anything terrible.

    As for Wimbley, although that LT was horrendous he just straight out dominated...sure is nice to have a real good DE out there.
