How did each NFL team grade out now that the Super Bowl is over?

Tennessee Titans-B-

The Titans had a season that closely resembles the Seahawks in a lot of ways. For all the talk about opening the offense up, Tennessee still relied heavily on the run game for success. Unfortunately, their passing game was unable to do enough to keep opposing defenses honest.

That led to the Titans finishing 7th in the NFL in rushing yards per game and 29th in passing. This team has to find a way to generate some balance if they want to move up the standings. A 9-7 finish is probably as good as Tennessee can do until they find a quality passing offense.

The good news for Mike Vrabel and company is that the defense looks like a group that can be well above average for years to come. There aren’t a ton of stars on that side of the ball, but the unit works well together. Vrabel arrived in Nashville with a reputation for building a versatile defense and that translated immediately in his first year in charge of the Titans.

The key for Tennessee moving forward will be to raise their ceiling. Providing Marcus Mariota with some more offensive weaponry is the only way they can achieve that goal. He may not be the right guy to lead the franchise forward, but they won’t know until they give him a solid supporting cast.
