The defense looked like they had a serious case of jet lag on the first drive last week in Seattle. There has been a lot of talk about starting fast this week. Hopefully they will do that. Click through the jump for three things to watch on defense tonight.

1. Defensive ends- The Titans are thinner than paper at defensive end. Last week they didn't get any pressure on the quarterback at all. This defense is going to be bad if guys like Kamerion Wimbley and Derrick Morgan don't step it up.

2. Third corner back battle- Tommie Campbell had the one bad play last week, but he held up pretty well overall. He still looks like the leader for the third spot, but don't sleep on Gramsey's boy Ryan Mouton. He has been playing really well.

3. Robert Johnson- RoJo is probably going to get some chances with the first team tonight. The Buccaneers have some weapons on offense, so it will be a good test to see where he really is.
