Know Your Enemy: Ty Schalter of Bleacher Report
You can take inspiration from the bleakest of moments. If that’s true, I’m about to get a ton of inspiration from the way the Titans are playing. This 0-2 start feels like 0-12. Ty Schalter knows what I’m talking about, as he has followed the Detroit Lions all his life. Introduce yourself. I’m Ty, a […]
Know Your Enemy: Jerome Watson of Rock the Bolt
One thing you can’t do with San Diego Chargers fans is accuse them of being bandwagon jumpers. The franchise reminds me of the Titans in the early 2000s, good team, can’t quite make it happen in the playoffs. Is the window closing? Let’s find out with Jerome Watson of RocktheBolt.com Introduce yourself. Include a little […]
Know Your Enemy: Rumford Johnny on the New England Patriots

Know Your Enemy: Pittsburgh Steelers

Last year’s Titans/Steelers game was a key measuring point for the season. The dominant Steeler D confused and literally dropped Vince Young on his head. Chris Johnson had an 85-yard […]
Know Your Enemy: Cleveland Browns
When the NFL schedule came out, fans of the Tennessee Titans and Cleveland Browns circled this Sunday’s contest as “winnable”. Neither franchise entered 2011 with much momentum. The Browns boasted Madden 2012 cover boy Peyton Hillis. The Titans have recent eight-figure contract signee Chris Johnson. In last week’s games, the Titans’ punter Brett Kern had […]
