NFL Week 4 Takeaways
OCT 3, 2022
Mike
Vrabel and his staff are doing a really good job in adverse circumstances. The last two weeks
the Titans have weathered big comebacks from the Raiders and Colts.
And while I still have reservations on the ceiling for
the team, Sunday showed,
again, through the Tennessee run game, and through the team’s resiliency,
hallmarks of the program that Vrabel and Jon Robinson have built.
Vrabel said postgame about the offense, “It
wasn't perfect, but that did look more like our running game.” Derrick Henry
rushed for 114 yards and a touchdown on 22 carries. And on defense, the Titans
got a Joe Schobert forced fumble (Kristian Fulton covered it) and a
game-clinching Denico Autry sack to close out Indy’s last two possessions.
Without Taylor Lewan, Harold Landry and
A.J. Brown, among others, it’s hard to imagine Tennessee being quite what it was
the past couple of years. But that doesn’t mean they’ll be an easy out, either.
