Titans DC Dean Pees Retiring

happy trails, dean. was a very good DC for a couple seasons who coaxed an impressive performance from a defense that has essentially lacked any kind of edge rush since he got here. that's priority #1 for the offseason, and hopefully we can get an aggressive DC to match.

Pees’ defenses in NE from 2006-09 ranked 2nd, 4th, 8th, and 5th respectively in points allowed. From 2012 (first year with Ravens) to 2019 (final year with Titans) his defenses ranked 12th, 12th, 6th, 24th, 9th, 6th, 3rd, and 12th respectively in points allowed.

With Pees as your DC you were likely to have a top 10 defense in points allowed. Sure he had his faults, but your foolish if you don’t think he was a very good DC.

A lot of Ravens posters pretty much trashed him...and then he came in and boasted a top defense the following year, and then put together 2 great defensive game plans this year against Brady and Jackson in the playoffs. He was a lot better than what many Ravens posters advertised to us.

We won a SB with him where we played Brady and Manning about as well as they've been played.

But we still hate his scheme.

For the record, Jadevion Clowney and Mike Vrabel were pretty close when both were in Houston. Vrabel was basically like a QB coach for Clowney, if you can draw that comparison.

If Seattle doesn't push hard, this is a pairing that makes sense. Titans can win now, Clowney wants to win now.
