NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Vince Young was sacked four times in two quarters, All Pro Chris Johnson found himself stymied and left tackle Michael Roos banged his right knee in an ugly preseason loss.
At least the Tennessee Titans can console themselves with how well the defense played.
A unit so woeful in 2009 giving up an average of 25.1 points per game was the only bright spot in the Titans’ 15-7 loss at Carolina on Saturday night. Top draft pick Derrick Morgan finally made his NFL debut, and the Titans kept a Carolina squad looking for its first touchdown this preseason out of the end zone despite the Panthers’ first team playing three quarters.
