NFL  > Tennessee Titans  > Are The Titans For Real?
December 17, 2008, 11:27 PM
I BELIEVE THAT THE TITANS HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO WIN A SUPERBOWL. A GREAT D.
WHAT CONFUSES ME IS HOW ONLY 6 PLAYERS MADE THE PRO BOWL AS WELL AS THEM BEING OVERLOOKED EVERY WEEK. THE JETS GAME WAS A JOKE IN THE SENSE THAT THE JETS DIDNT BEAT THE TITANS, THE TITANS BEAT THE TITANS. WITH COUNTLESS DROPS BY RECEIVERS AND A CRUCIAL FUMBLE BY CJ. ALL THE JETS HAD TO DO WAS NOT CHOKE AND THEY DIDNT. THIS WEEK WITH THE TEXANS, IT WAS A TERRIBLY POOR CALL ON BEHALF OF JEFF FISHER, THAT COST THEM, AS WELL AS MORE DROPPED PASSES BY RECIEVERS. LOOK FOR THEM TO REBOUND IN A BIG WAY THIS WEEK, BECAUSE FISHER HAS A PRETTY GOOD HISTORY AGAINST THE STEELERS. BIG BEN WILL BE EXPOSED AS A CHOKER THIS WEEK. MY PICK: TITANS 31, STEELERS 21. AND COUNT ON 3 PICKS BY BIG BEN.

I hope the Titans CRUSH Big Ben and the Steelers.
But I dont think either the Titans or Steelers make the SB. I think the AFC Champ will be a surprise team; Colts or Dolphins. Notice how the Fins have NOT used the wildcat in about two months...if they get to the playoffs watch them use it as the X factor....it could decide a playoff game.
Far as the NFC, i think if the Cowboys can get in, they could be the team to beat...the D fense is peaking at the right time....just some wild **** opinions!

LOL!!! GET OFF THE CRACK PIPE.....DID YOU SEE THE RAVENS GAME THIS PAST WEEK? BIG BEN ISN'T GOING TO STRUGGLE AGAINST THE TITANS D. HE MOVED THE OFFENSE AT WILL AGAINST THE RAVENS WHEN IT REALLY MATTERED. TITANS WERE LUCKY TO BEAT THE RAVENS EARLIER THIS YEAR ( THAT WAS A BULLSH_T ROUGHING THE PASSER CALL THAT SET UP THE WINNING TD ) WITH HAYNESWORTH/VANDENBOSCH OUT, LOOK FOR THE STEELERS TO RUN AT WILL, SETTING UP THE PLAY ACTION FOR BEN. DON'T THINK TITANS SCORE MORE THAN 1 TD AND A FEW FGs AGAINST THE BEST D OF THE DECADE........STILLERS BY 17

just got done reading ironmans crazy prediction . i watched the ravens steelers game and big ben didn't really beat the ravens the ravens D went into the prevent to win defense the steelers will not win by 17 and they won't win either

I think ironman is on the crack pipe.

December 19, 2008  01:03 PM ET

the steelers running game does not scare anyone this year...even with Haynesworth and VanDB out this is the Titans game to lose...better ball control and better decisions this week and the Titans win by 4...

I HAT TO SAY I TOLD YOU SO, BUT.

December 21, 2008  08:35 PM ET

well i gotta give ironman credit for 1 thing right the point spread was right but he was way off on the team i guess the titans made a bold statement today GOOOOOOOOOOOO TITANS

December 21, 2008  10:46 PM ET

Hey Ironman what happened?????

December 25, 2008  12:32 AM ET

i smell a superbowlllll

December 26, 2008  03:36 PM ET

look at history boys.........it says there is more than a great chance the number one team won't make it to the conference championship, let alone win the superbowl. i like the fact the steelers lost. the loss wakes up a team and gives them a fresh start and more focus going into the playoffs. that "stupid" towel incident will incite some motivation also i'm sure. the fact big ben had more yards than the titans team combined raises an eyebrow or two. take a nothing to lose throw at the end of the game returned for a td and a penalty that gave the titans 7 points instead of 3 and the score and strategy totally change. take those away and the score is 20-14 instead. those are scary thoughts considering how bad the steelers played. and people smell superbowl?

i don't think the colts have the complete package to win the superbowl. manning has been erratic this season along with the defense. denver's running game is iffy because of all the injuries. and defense? they have none. miami made an unprecidented turn around this year. i have faith in parcells. always did, but the running game is lackluster at best and the receiving core doesn't have a standout playmaker. the titans have a great running game and a proven winner with the qb. the wideouts aren't the best in the AFC let alone the NFL. defense has been solid. the steelers have one of the best qbs, a proven running game and one of the best wrs in the league along with a suffocating defense. i think it may be a titans and steelers rematch with a very different ending. in the NFC the vikings have no passing game and can't stop the pass. dallas is in total disarray. the only real threat is the giants and panthers. i think the giants have a good defense and proven running game. i'm still not sure of the passing game. the panthers have a not great but solid qb. they have a top wr in smith and a great tandem in rbs. the defense has had some great play this year. i think the giants lose in the championship in an upset to carolina and the steelers make a statement with the titans.

i'll take the steelers by 7.

December 27, 2008  10:15 AM ET

marq you and your steelers are LOSERS. You can't see the forest for the trees the TITANS have the whole package this the steelers only have half. That being the D and we kicked in that butt too.

December 27, 2008  10:04 PM ET

well lokks like another blind steelers fan yes benny (on his back )rothlesburger did pass for more yards the the titans total yardage but maybe marquis77 forgets that the titans were without big al & kvb

Im not sure about this season, we wont be going 10-0 before we take a loss this year.

We are not sure how the D will adjust without Albert, the offense is some what new as well. Nate Washington , Kenny Britt and Jared Cook will shine but I think it'll take a full season to get them comfortable.

Im not looking to win a SB this year, I think we will be lucky to make the playoffs. but if we do manage to sneak in. i think we could at least win 1 playoff game. Fisher seems to make some bad calls in playoff games.
