The Tennessee Titans will return much of their 2019 starting offense in 2020, which gives the team a huge advantage over other squads in what will be an abbreviated offseason that doesn’t leave much time for preparation.
While that’s a definite positive for the Titans, each offensive starter will have a question to answer during the 2020 campaign.
Here’s a look at one question for each and every Titans offensive starter for this coming season.
QB Ryan Tannehill
Is Tannehill worth the money?
Despite having his best season as a pro with the Titans in 2019, plenty of doubters still remain, and those doubters got even louder once Tannehill signed his new contract.
Apparently they didn’t watch the 10 games Tannehill played during the regular season, nor have they seen the countless metrics that showed he was more than just a guy who hands the ball off to Derrick Henry.
Instead, Tannehill’s detractors have decided to focus on the two playoff games in which Henry dominated and Tannehill didn’t have to do much.
In 2020, the biggest opponents of Tannehill’s extension will be looking for every chance they can get to poke a hole in the idea that he actually deserved it.
The good news for those who believe Tannehill is worth it is that he’s still in a quarterback-friendly offense that uses a dominant running game to set up the play-action, where Tannehill really thrived last season.
If there was ever a situation in which Tannehill can re-create his 2019 success, it’s in this offense.
