Two weeks of mistake-free play in the red zone have yielded Titans gigantic results
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The Titans biggest dropoff from 2016 to 2017 was in the red zone.
During last year’s 9-7 campaign, they scored a touchdown on 36 of 50 red-zone trips for a tremendous .720 rate.
Through seven games this season, that had plummeted to seven of 17 for a .412 clip.

That included three in three chances against the Bengals, who came into Sunday’s game as the NFL’s No. 1 defense.
