It's all about defense in baseball, basketball, and in the NFL.
More times than not, championship teams have championship defenses.
Just go back in time, 1985 Bears with Dent, Singletary and that group, they made a hamburger like QB Jim McMahon a Super Bowl champion.
1986 Giants with LT and that crew. They beat the Bills in the Super Bowl with a back up quarter back.
2000 Ravens and Ray Lewis
2002 Bucs won it with defense, Ronde Barber was the leagues lock corner that season, Brooks was a tackling machine, so was Simeon Rice, Warren Sapp had a nice season too for the Bucs.
Titans yesterday showed their defense is for real, that was a good Jag team they beat yesterday 9-6 with smash mouth defense. It's tough to score on them Titans don't yield many yards.
And look at that soft second half schedule they have. If you have a good solid defense you can go far in the NFL. Titans can win with Mariota and his bad throwing arm or currently injured Gabbert.
If your're wondering why the Dolphins are undefeated still, it's because of defense.
You can't run the ball on the Dolphins, that's why it would not shock me if they beat the Pats this coming Sunday.
The best way to score on Miami is up top, not on the ground for sure, only real threat New England has is Gronk, Hogan is a slightly better than ordinary receiver, and White is an OK pass catching back. I can see Drake and old man Frank Gore having nice games, Tannehill doesn't need to do much next week except to be careful.You can run all day on that Pats run defense.
Would not shock me if Miami wins the east.
But it looks like the Titans are beasts of the south.
