Titans coach Mike Vrabel on what are the biggest challenges leading into Sunday's game against the Jets:
"Well, the games they've won, they've rushed the ball 36 times or more. The games that they've won, I think they've scored over 35 or 36 points – 40 in two ball games. They were able to get quite a bit of turnovers in those games. Defensively, they're stout. They don't stay on the field very long. They're very good on third downs. They have a lot of youth. They have two young safeties. They have two linebackers that are very active. They have a good front, a young outside linebacker and two accomplished corners."
