2020 NFL Power Rankings: Tennessee Titans


Throughout the 2020 NFL season, we will compile a consensus NFL Power Rankings that averages the rankings of all 32 NFL teams.

Here is where the Tennessee Titans rank in terms of average, best and worst:

Below you will find a Week 15 roundup for the Titans in our consensus 2020 NFL Power Rankings.

The Athletic -- Rank: 11

Given that they lost right tackle Jack Conklin in free agency and left tackle Taylor Lewan to injury, the Titans could have really used immediate contributions from 29th overall pick Isaiah Wilson, but they haven't gotten that. The Titans placed Wilson on the reserve non-football illness list last week. He was suspended for violating team rules in Week 13. And he was arrested for a DUI charge in September. Overall, Wilson has played just three offensive snaps. Playing without Wilson in Week 14, the Titans rolled to a 31-10 win over the Jaguars. They currently have the same record as the Colts atop the AFC South.

CBS Sports -- Rank: 12

If Derrick Henry played Jacksonville every week, he'd have a 3,000-yard season. They did play better on defense, which is progress.

USA Today -- Rank: 7

Average 156 rushing yards over his final three games (Detroit, Green Bay and Houston), and RB Derrick Henry reaches 2,000.

ESPN -- Rank: 8

Although the Titans are 9-4, their defense has been subpar. They are last in the NFL in opponent third-down conversion percentage and touchdown percentage allowed in the red zone. The pass rush has generated an NFL-low 14 sacks. Tennessee added outside linebackers Vic Beasley and Jadeveon Clowney to help improve the pass rush. Neither has a sack this season. Beasley was released, and Clowney is on injured reserve. The Titans' secondary hasn't helped either, especially when it plays off the ball, even in third-and-short situations. The defense showed signs of life in back-to-back wins over the Colts and Ravens and, most recently, in a 31-10 victory over the Jaguars. -- Turron Davenport

NFL.com -- Rank: 11

Derrick Henry is simply incredible. The running back couldn't be contained against the Jaguars, rushing for 215 yards and two touchdowns in a 31-10 win. It marked Henry's fourth career game of 200-plus rushing yards and at least two touchdowns, breaking an NFL record previously shared with -- wait for it -- Jim Brown, LaDainian Tomlinson and Barry Sanders. Yes, Henry is an all-time talent, and if he averages 156 yards per game over the final three weeks, he'll be the eighth player in NFL history to join the 2,000-yard rushing club. Do you really doubt he can pull it off? It's King Henry Szn.
