Trio of underrated Titans defenders have elevated DL to elite status

The Tennessee Titans possess one of the league’s best defenses. The Titans haven’t allowed an opponent to score 20-plus points since the Las Vegas Raiders scored 22 in a Week 3 Titans win. Their latest defensive showing may be their most impressive. Holding the Kansas City Chiefs to 20 points despite playing a nearly unprecedented 100 defensive snaps is borderline unheard of. Tennessee’s defensive success begins up front with a fierce defensive line that’s applying constant pressure on opposing quarterbacks. The emergence of Teair Tart, DeMarcus Walker and Mario Edwards Jr. has improved Tennessee’s depth while simultaneously heightening their ceiling.
