Summary

If I was Denis Allen, I would have Marshon Lattimore shadow A.J. Brown all game and advise him to use inside leverage and play close to the line of scrimmage.

I would use man coverage more than usual due to Tannehill’s ability to make throws into tight windows. I would use mostly single high coverages as that would put Vonn Bell down near the line of scrimmage as that would help stop the Titans’ strong run game.

I wouldn’t blitz much as Tannehill has been exceptional against the blitz, and the front four should be able to win consistently without any additional help. I expect it to be a close battle with neither side dominating.

As I expect another excellent performance from the Saints’ offense, the defense will only have to keep Tannehill and the Titans’ offense under control for the Saints to get the win.
