<![CDATA[Adjustments]]>Defense is not starting well on the road but Pettine deserves a lot of credit for second half turnarounds. It's not easy to shut teams out in the NFL and he's pretty much done it twice for an entire half.

Penalties killed TN's first couple drives and opened the door and our O cashed in drives and TN got more conservative and our D loaded the box.

When it was 28-15 TN tried to turn their O back on, but whatever magic Whitehurst entered the game with was gone. How much of that was our D vs. his nerves, I do not know, but his hesitation suggests much of the latter.

Or basically shut a team down for large portions of a game (Baltimore) and on the most important drive of the game, shit the bed.
