Can the Titans improve to 1-1?
As I said last night, since 1990 only 11% of the teams that have started 0-2 have made the playoffs while 42% of the teams that started 1-1 made the playoffs. Both the Tennessee Titans and the New York Jets enter this game 0-1. Someone is leaving 0-2 (unless there is a tie and then both teams will leave 0-1-1).
The San Francisco 49ers ran the ball really well against the Jets on Monday night. Was that because the Jets' run defense is bad or because the 49ers are really good at running the...

Last week was rough.
Last week I liked the over on passing yards for both Will Levis and Caleb Williams. Those obviously did not hit. Neither did the over for Tyler Boyd’s receiving yards. That’s an 0-3 start for me, but like the Tennessee Titans, I am ready to bounce back this week with some winners!
In case you do not know, prop bets are wagers that are specific to an event or player inside a bigger contest. Bets can be on things like player statistics, which team does something specific, or who is the first to do something. Some...
That’s a fun picture!
Since 1990 on 11% of the teams that have started 0-2 have made the playoffs. Both the Tennessee Titans and the New York Jets come into this game 0-1. Someone is leaving 0-2 and with that 11% chance to make the playoffs. On the flip side, 42% of teams that have started 1-1 have made the playoffs. I like those odds better.
The Titans are a 3.5-point underdog in this game over at FanDuel. They are also +166 on the money line. I like the Titans to win this game outright. We saw how good the...
How long are you willing to give Will Levis?
All of the talk this week around the Tennessee Titans has been about Will Levis. He had a rough go of it on Sunday in the loss to the Chicago Bears. Both Levis and coach Brian Callahan talked this week about the quarterback being in a good place mentally. Are we as fans in a good place mentally about Levis?
Obviously “wait and see” is the right call here. We have seen some good and some bad from Levis, and the sample size isn’t enough yet to make a determination one...

It should be a good one tonight!
We get another excellent prime time matchup tonight when the Buffalo Bills take on the Miami Dolphins. Both teams come into the game 1-0. It will most likely be one of these two teams that ends up winning the AFC East. The winner of tonight’s game will have the early edge.
The Dolphins are 2-point favorites here over at FanDuel. The Bills are +112 on the money line. I like that bet because Miami has proven over the last year that they can beat up on bad teams but have trouble with playoff...
The second-year guard was limited after being a full participant on Wednesday.
Yesterday there were three players on the Tennessee Titans injury report, DeAndre Hopkins, Jamal Adams, and Otis Reese. All three players were listed as full participants. Those same three players were listed as full participants today, but left guard Peter Skoronski was added as a limited participant because of a neck injury.
Skoronski had a bad game against the Chicago Bears. When you draft a guard with the 11th overall pick he better be a really good player. Skoronski hasn’t been that so far, but to be fair...
Some bulletin board material for Titans QB Will Levis
Tennessee Titans starting quarterback Will Levis is confident heading into Week 2 against the New York Jets. Both QB and head coach Brian Callahan spoke with the media on Thursday. Callahan said his signal caller was, “in a good place mentally,” and Levis proclaimed, “I know I’m a good quarterback in this league” while adding that he “didn’t lose any sleep” over Sunday’s horrific pick-six (though I bet some Titans fans did).
Week 2 represents a much-needed bounce-back spot for Levis and the Titans offense. This fan-base has lost an incredible...
It’s important to have a short memory as a quarterback.
If you have spent any time reading or listening to talk about the Tennessee Titans this week, you know that most of it has centered around the play of Will Levis. It was easily his worst game as a member of the Titans. The most frustrating thing is that if he just hits one throw to Calvin Ridley or doesn’t try to flick the ball away while being sacked, we are probably having a very different conversation this week - oh, and the Titans would be 1-0.
If you are...
The Titans trade for L’Jarius Sneed is looking pretty, pretty good
The Chicago Bears have some really good receivers, and those guys weren’t able to get separation when L’Jarius Sneed was guarding them on Sunday:
The Tennessee Titans will need similar production from Sneed when facing Garrett Wilson of the New York Jets on Sunday. He was good against Wilson last year:
We all know J.C. Latham was bad on Sunday. How did he rank against the other rookie left tackles? Well, you won’t be surprised to know it was really bad:
I am interested in...
All of the discussion this week centers around the Titans QB
It’s time to ride the confidence roller coaster! Confidence was sky high last week. How far will it fall this week? I’m still confident that the organization is headed in the right direction, but of course, we only have one sample of actual results and it wasn’t good.
The other question this week is about Will Levis. What else would it be about? He was really bad against the Chicago Bears and showed a lot of the tendencies that we were concerned about when the Titans drafted him. How...
