As we do every week, it’s time to take a look at the analytical side of things following the Tennessee Titans’ Week 4 victory over the Indianapolis Colts.
This week we’ll be adding a little twist, as we’ll start listing the top five and bottom five grades where applicable. Usually we just go over the best of the best grades, but taking a look at the bottom five gives us insight into who may have struggled.
I say “may have” because Pro Football Focus grades don’t always reflect what we saw on the field. They are, however, another way of looking at things, which we always welcome.
As you’d expect, the defense had the majority of the top-five grades from both sides of the ball after its impressive performance on Sunday.
We’ll take a look at the grades, as well as offensive line, coverage and pass-rush stats from Tennessee’s Week 4 win over Indianapolis.
