Summary

The Titans had a mediocre showing defensively last season, ranking 18th overall. Tennessee was about the same when it came to fantasy points, coming in at 19th in fantasy points. Their pass defense was more of a strength than rush defense but that unit lost Cortland Finnegan, who was their top cover corner. He'll be missed. But even with that said, the pass defense should be able to produce similar numbers, mostly because of an improved pass rush with Kamerion Wimbley helping at defensive end. And Derrick Morgan should be better at the other defensive end spot, providing some good pressure on the quarterback. Marc Mariani was a surprise find on special teams last season. He did well in the return game and should provide a spark once again in this area for the Titans.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
The Titans look to be about the same defensively this season, so count on them to be a spot starter for fantasy teams. Their return game has a little upside and the sack totals should be better, but they don't turn the ball over a ton and could allow some high yardage and point totals on occasion.
