Titans' duo of Murray, Henry could amass huge yards powering through in a passing league

The Tennessee Titans are going against the grain in the upcoming 2016 season. In a pass-first league, they have built a power running-based offense that revolves around two potentially dynamic running backs — DeMarco Murray and Derrick Henry.

Yes, the Titans have a rising star at quarterback in Marcus Mariota, but without game-breaking threats at wide receiver and with a defense that needs protecting via a time-consuming run game, it's going to be a pound-it-on-the-ground approach for the most part.

Preseason productivity always has to be taken with a grain of salt as defenses rarely game plan until the regular season.
