The Titans are playing well....I expect them to give the Chiefs a fight. Henry is a truck & I do think it's possible they could win.

But they're bringing a popgun offense to town. Tannyhill threw for like 100 yards both games. That ain't gonna work. Their only hope is for the Chiefs to screw around offensively. For more than one quarter apparently judging by yesterday.

Chiefs cover.

Personally, I’m looking past the Titans. I’m focused on whether the Chiefs SB opponent will be Green Bay or San Fran.

That's a fair assessment...and if KC was rolling into the AFCCG by beating both the Patriots/Raven, on the road, we would all be ecstatic. Your team just completed the Chiefs worst-case-scenario...nobody, here, wanted those 2 teams on the road.

Titans absolutely deserve to be playing next Sunday...they earned it.

That said...Mahomes being down 24-0 then coming back was probably the worst case scenario for Tennessee. Chiefs are awake now...that was some seriously transcendent offense. They also lost the previous match-up...so nothing will be taken for granted.

It's really, really hard to win 3 times, on the road, in the playoffs.

Really hope Jones is ready to rock and the whole DL for that matter. Tennessee’s OL has been pushing people around up front.

This game will be a great tuneup for a potential matchup with SF, if both teams win.

Dolphins dumped everyone. Because their coaches are terrible. Not surprising guys like Tannehill and Stills are good on teams that can make the playoffs. How is top 10 passer rating, top 10 completion percentage, top 10 yards per attempt basically like Alex Smith. All-time... Not top 10 this season but all-time. In his first year with a new team. I guess you'll see next week but don't be surprised if forced to throw he'll go off. Even the other day he had 3tds to Henry's 1.

No previous outcome MATTERS in the playoffs, but what they show us about matchups and tendencies can inform expectations of outcomes.

Lamar Jackson is a great QB and a good player. But at this stage in his career, he also kind of needs the game to stay on schedule/script to be effective as a passer.

It’s not dissimilar to Tannehill, actually. Who is best when the play-action game is set up and he’s in third and medium or less.

Tannehill fits that scheme and setup nicely. He still has things to prove when he consistently faces 3rd and long, as we saw against New England.

I’d like up in a beat front with 3 DT’s and have Clark/Suggs on the edge with Ragland crashing running lanes.

I like that alignment, especially if Jones is healthy and is lined up like a 34 DE. Saunders-Pennel-Jones would be a pretty good combo of size and athleticism.

I am not over confidant the Titans have been Reid's kryptonite. I think he is 1-7 against them.

Hey guys. And ladies. Remember the narrative last year. Chiefs against the Colts in the playoffs. How to get over that based on history. We did. And in a big way. Now here comes the Titans. Same scenario. But we have a different team than earlier this year and past years. That will make a difference.

Those stats are great and show Tannehill operating efficiently within the framework of the Titans’ offense.

But this is a fan base that watched Alex Smith for five years. We understand how much the offense and scheme and playing within it bumped up Smith’s passer rating, completion percentage, and even YPA. It also saw how flat Smith fell when the offense got off schedule and was faced with playoff defenses and elite QBs.

From what I’ve seen of Tannehill and the Titans, it’s a fair comparison.

Cute is right.
Chiefs offense was #7 in yards this year after setting an NFL record for yards per play last year. I really think the 2018 offense is back now that Mahomes and the line are healthy. How many times in NFL post-season history has a team scored a TD on 7 straight drives?

I'm glad mahomes blew up and went crazy yesterday, scoring 50 points and showing everyone that the titans "have zero chance" of beating the chiefs.

Its exactly what we need, the same narrative vrabels been riding all postseason. I would be terrified if i was a chiefs fan. But dont be, keep on being over confident.

It’s because Tannehill’s success is heavily dependent on the run. If you lessen the probability of the run, play-action becomes much less effective.

I haven’t watch Tennessee play outside of the Chiefs and Ravens games, but the factor above is why many are comparing Tannehill to Smith. If the run is removed from their game plan, can Tannehill still perform to the level needed?
