Don’t turn the ball over, get 3-4 stops on defense….that should be the M.O. with this team. With that formula, this O will put up 30+ points on 8-9 time consuming drives….most other teams, with 4-5 scoring opportunities, aren’t going to get to 30….

Tennessee’s defense sure as hell isn’t stopping the Chiefs. Even Jacksonville had almost 500 yards of total offense against them earlier this season… they are terrible. |
This bodes well.

Greetings y'all.
This is always an interesting game. Short week for my Titans and we've been a veritable M*A*S*H unit in the last few weeks. Over 20 players on the injury roster two weeks ago. Julio Jones and AJ Brown nursing hammys. And when both returned for the Buffalo game, Julio reinjured his. AJ Brown played through food poisoning and found his rhythm in the second half. But our first round corner tore his ACL and is out for the season, as well as one of our reserve receivers who also returned kickoffs for us. And our left tackle Lewan had a nasty concussion in that game and it would really surprise me if he's cleared on a short week. Ryan Tannehill easily had his worst first half that I'd seen from him since he began as starting QB in Tennessee. Fortunately 2nd half Tanny was a lot better and completed his last 9 passes. He also had a running TD, no turnovers and amazingly, no sacks. And Derrick Henry continues to burnish a Hall of Fame resume. In 6 games he's run 100+ yards for the last 5. He's run for more yards in the first 6 games than anyone in history. He's on pace for a 2000 yard season....without needing the 17th game. But you guys have Patrick and company, which means that despite an uneven season, everyone still expects KC to pull it out in the end and make the playoffs. We're in one of our toughest parts of the season where we have Buffalo, KC, Indy and the Rams. I'd be happy if we got through this 2-2. KC would be nice for the 2nd win, but we have no delusions on how hard this will be. |

Injuries suck, here’s hoping we both get out of this game without any more to add to the list. |

I'd be shocked if Julio played. They'll probably table him for a couple of weeks. And note our kicker is nursing a shoulder injury suffered when he tried to stop a kickoff return for a TD. The Bills did return it all the way but the kicker drew a penalty which ultimately kept the game out of reach of Buffalo. But our kicker is the replacement kicker for the one that went on IR before the season began (and can technically come back now). And speaking of kickers you might now, we're the same Titans who bagged on Ryan Succop a couple years back when he got hurt, and then that dude shows up in Tampa last year. We have a bad habit of cutting kickers loose too quickly. |
