Where Titans rank statistically heading into Week 12

After losing by 20 points to the Jacksonville Jaguars, the Tennessee Titans have now lost three straight games, five out of their last six, and have been outscored 144-96 since Week 5 (-48 point differential).

Tennessee currently sits at 3-7, yet the team is somehow playing much worse than the record would indicate. The Titans have underwhelmed in practically every single category through 10 games.

The offense ranks in the bottom half of the league in almost everything, and a defense that was expected to be an elite unit has severely regressed on every level and is hovering around the league average or worse in several notable areas.

Listed below are the Titans’ rankings in every major statistical category after the first 11 weeks of the NFL season. All of the data used in this article was collected from the Team Rankings website, unless noted otherwise.
