A lot is being written lately about the Titans’ playoff history with the Ravens. Yes, 2000 was awful, and the sight of Ray Lewis snatching that Steve McNair pass away from Eddie George and racing to the endzone used to be burned in my mind. But for me, 2003 (aka, the “monkey off our back” [...]

…it would surely be snowing there now. The two playoff teams with the worst regular season records won today. Cardinals beat Falcons and Chargers beat Colts. Un-fucking-believable.

ESPN (along with the rest of the planet) is reporting:
The Pro Bowl will be played one week before the Super Bowl in 2010 and both games will be staged in Dolphin Stadium, a person directly involved in the decision told The Associated Press on Monday.
This is a tough one. While I certainly agree that ending [...]

What a day of football! Well, except for my Titans.
I’d hoped they’d actually go for the win, but then again considering the day’s injuries–most notably to Ben Roethlisberger–I’m not going to complain! (Objective #1, No injuries). It was a little odd having to repeatedly refer to the team roster in Week 17 for crying out [...]

The Pittsburgh Steelers are a great team, but this day belonged to the Tennessee Titans as they defeat the Steelers 31-14 and lock up home-field advantage throughout the playoffs.
Something tells me we’ll see these two teams playing again in just a few weeks…
Jets end Titans win streak, and end it hard

The Tennessee Titans got blown out by the New York Jets today, 34-13. I can’t speak for any Titans fans other than my family, but golly gee whiz, we’ll take a 10-1 start any time.
Saddest of all is that the Titans didn’t wake up until the 3rd quarter was nearly over. Had they been awake [...]

Linebacker Keith Bullock and defensive end Kyle Vanden Bosch both practiced yesterday, which is good news. The Tennessee Titans will need them both this weekend.
Vegas oddsmakers seem to have the Titans at about 5 point favorites, but I think ESPN is probably closer to what I expect with the Titans favored by 1.5 points. I [...]

It wasn’t pretty. It certainly wasn’t commanding. In fact, it was just enough. But…
The Tennessee Titans, after a dismal first half performance, scored three unanswered second half touchdowns to defeat the Jacksonville Jaguars 24-14. The Titans remain undefeated, if anything but perfect, and become the first team to accrue double digit wins this season.
Way to [...]

Titans face Bears Sunday, this is the game I’m worried about

Sunday at Noon (CST), the Tennessee Titans face the Chicago Bears. The Titans are 3 point favorites, which ain’t much. This is the game I’m worried about. The Bears lead the NFC North and many say are better than their 5-3 record, and it’s not easy to win at Soldier Field. Time will tell…
