Guys,
Titan's All the way to Tampa Bay!!! The Titans have become one of the elite teams in the NFL. They left the Super Bowl this year with a very bad taste in their mouths (coming from a die hard fan, I can only imagine how the players feel). They will have the bullseye smack dab on there backs. Teams will be shooting for the Titans. But this is a tough team. With Eddie George resigned for the long haul. The man has not missed a game (amazing) and is a work horse. Steve McNair will develop into a big time QB. (For those that continue to doubt this just watch the second half of the Superbowl, in particular the last drive). With the Freak on Defense (every QB's worst nightmare). A solid offense and defensive line. Great coaching. Solid special teams.

I can tell you this team is ready to return to the Superbowl. This time they will win it all...

BobFinn....Didnt the Titans have something like the 27th ranked defense last year???

I also thought they lost 2 of their starting LB's. If that is the case, being that the Titans have basically stood pat talent wise, I cant forsee them making it back to the superbowl. But on the other hand who thought theyd make it last year. I knew theyd be good, but superbowl, NAH.

Some other musings.

-How on Gods green earth did the Rams, fresh off of their superbowl get a schedule with an average winning percentage of opposing teams of something like 40%???? Unbelievable.

-Did I read that KiJana Carter injured himself again? What a paper player.

-Anyone else see that the Skins payroll for next year is going to be well over 100 million. Possibly breaking the the Yankees record of 104 million ( and thats with a baseball roster of half the players ) but at least MR. Snyder has a plan. CHARGE 10 dollars for admission to practice, and 10 dollars for parking. Not to mention 5 freaking dollars for a beer!

-Who else just knew that the Broncs couldnt of won 2 straight titles without cheating. Tampering with contracts, paying under the table. Denver fans had to of known it wasnt possible.

-Janikowski who is your agent? 1 million a year contract. Youll need more than that to bribe all the cops in your many drunken stupors.

-Whos Ryan Leaf?

ok enough fun:

NFC East: Washington. Way too much talent to fail, anyone check out theri Depth? But a killer of a schedule. OUCH!

NFC Central: Bucs. Way too much D to fail. But still no running game (going off of last year), or QB to get Keyshawn the Damn ball more than 10 yards down field.

NFC West: Rams. Lost some lineman, but another softee of a schedule.

AFC East: Colts. Big 3 have a year together under theri belt. D is middle of the road. But an exciting team to watch. Will make some noise

AFC Central: Jags if their RB can stay healthy, Titans if not. To very close teams.

AFC West: Seattle. Finally the Seahawks make the playoffs.

SuperBowl: Redskins over the Colts.

The Skins lost to the Colts by 3 in Indy, with a horrible Defensive coordinator, and the 30th ranked D last year. Ray Rhodes, Foge Fazio, Ron Meeks, Deion Sanders, Bruce Smith, Mark Carrier, and LaVar Arrington ensure the Skins of a much better Defensive standing.

Dreamshake-
Nobody else in the AFC is really making serious updates to their roster. I mean Indianapollis and Jacksonville have also stood pat, basically, and the Titans went through both of those teams on their way to the SuperBowl. I also think that Jeff FIsher might have a knack of finding good players through the draft, as evidenced by Jevon Kearse, and I think this yers pick, the linebacker Bullet (or something like that) will also do much better than expected (althoguh its a tough position for a rookie). If I remember correctly he was suppossed to be drafted higher. I could really see the Titans making it back to the Super Bowl again if they open up their offense just a smidgen. Everybody remembers the way they dominated the 2nd half of the SUper Bowl (except for one defnsive play) and while they still used ball control offense, it was much more aggressive in my opinion. If they can play taht way offensively all year, they should be very very good. But like you, I picked the Colts to represent the AFC this year.

I will be absolutely shocked if Tampa doesn't win it all. With that defense, all they need is 20 points and Keyshawn is good for 14 by himself per game either catching or drawing double teams.

SUPERBOWL:

Tampa 20
Colts 7

Dreamshake,
To answer your question. Yes the Titans did lose 2 of their linebackers. However, in my opinion the Titans ended up improving in that category. They ended up signing Randall Godfrey out of Dallas and drafted Keith Bullock out of Syracuse in the first round. He will be starting before mid-season. The Titans defense is known for being very, very aggresive and one that takes plenty of risks. They blitz alot. Much of that comes from the old Buddy Ryan philosophy. Remember that Coach Fischer learned alot working under Buddy Ryan.

I think what will be critical for the Titans will be picking up a quality Wide Receiver. They are trying very hard to sign Carl Pickens. The Bengals released him and the Titans are going after him with all they got.

JayZ750,
I agree with you that they have a total ball control offense. Having Eddie George in the backfield dictates that. Your right that they need to be more consistent. I think hiring of the new offensive coordinator (the guy was an assistant coach from Denver) will help in this area. From what I have been reading about him. He is a perfectionist and that will help in the development of Steve McNair.

If the Titans get pickens, there is no reason they can't return to the Superbowl. They dominated the Colts, Bills, and Jaguars from a defensive perspective. Completely took all three teams out of their offense. If you don't think they have a defense you are sadly mistaken. They have THE best defense. And improved it this year with Godfrey and Bullock. Both were steals. They also shut down the Rams in Big game. No other team besides Tampa could shut them down. Nobody. This Team is for real. I think they can return to the Superbowl. No kidding, they are for real, if they get pickens. And even if they don't, they've got a good chance. Solid. Hard Working. And they believe.

Phislamma....

Ummm theres no "mistaking" having the 27th or such ranked D in the NFL. If they had (or have) a great D. What does that make the 27 or so teams in front of them?

Heck. The Skins had the 30th ranked D and that only would put them 3-5 slots behind the Titans. Godfrey is a solid pickup, but the reason the Boys didnt extend an offer was because they didnt feel he had the complete package. Plus Bullock is a rookie who probably will struggle at first in the NFL. The 2 linebackers they lost werent slouches either (Michael Barrow and cant remember the other) So call it a wash at best for the upcoming season as far as LBs go.

Im not discounting the Titans. ESPECIALLY if they pick up Pickens. Pickens changes the whole makeup of their offense immediately. He becomes the game breaker they desperately need to open up running lanes, and a huge downfield threat. Which is an area that needs addressing from their squad.

Moes...Yes, I did make a mistake on the Seahawks. And it doesnt really matter what position Janikowski plays as much as where he was selected. Not to mention he probably has the most leathal leg ever coming out of college. EVER. He had ground to stand on in making a play at a bigger contract. All in all he was selected, what 17th and if the attitude of the Raiders was the same as yours, then they wouldnt of selected him so high.

Diss Jano all u want, but he kicks it regular thru the goal posts off KICKOFFS.

I'm not too worried about the Bucs seeing the RAIDERS RAPED THE BUCS 45-0 last year...

The Raiders are just as talented as the Colts, unfortunely for them, our kicker is better and in the end will be the difference. Bad starting field position will be the Colt's downfall...

27th in Defense is yardage only if I'm not mistaken. Doesn't tell much of a story without some additonal number crunching. Anybody know how we ranked in total points given up? Or how Strong we are in the red zone? That would add to the picture, but regardless of the numbers, I don't know how you can ignore the fact that the Titans broke the rythm of every high powered offense in the NFL. Teams were unfocused against the Titans because we disrupted their game plan. I mean Jacksonville scored 62 points on Miami, and couldn't break twenty against the Titans three times. Rams averaged like 35 points all year and get just 23 and 21. You could argue that our ball control offense had something to do with that, and I'll agree it contributes, but this defense removes structure from every offense. You can feel it as you watch the game. I don't know how you can ignore that intuitive feeling you get from the Titans. It's powerful man!

Here's mine:

AFC EAST: Indy, Jets (wild-card)
AFC Central: Tennesse, Jags (Wild-card)
AFC West: Seattle, Denver (Wild-Card)

NFC East: Dallas, Washington (Wild-Card)
NFC Central: TB
NFC West: Rams, Carolina (Wild-Card), Falcons (wild-Card)

NFC is really tough with good teams (talent-wise) with Minnesota, Greenbay & Chicago missing out.

I like the Jags to make it to the AFC championship game (they will have a slow start w/o Searcy & Boselli) vs the Titans. Titans make a return trip to the SB.

In the NFC I wouldn't be surprised to see Dallas & Washington in the championship game. I like Dallas to continue their recent success vs the Skins.

Eddie George goes nuts in the SB and leads Titans to a win over the Boys.

The Jets have historically given the Titans trouble with Vinny at the helm. If we can avoid the Jets I think the titans have got a chance to return. That's the only team that seems to have our number. And they will be back in full force this year.

The Raiders Special Teams will come through this year . When Janikowski blasts those kickoffs in the back of the end zone it makes other teams have to put 80 yard drives together , if our new-look secondary can hold up against Seattle or Denvers passing game we can go 11-5 and probably make it to the divisionals ,BUT If the offense defense and special teams are all clicking You might see Silver and Black in Tampa Bay 2001

NEWSFLASH...

Titans just signed Carl Pickens. Guys start redoing your predictions because the Titans just got a whole lot better....

This just made my day.

Carl is a playmaker who has been stuck on a losing team for his entire career. He is the playmaker that the Titans have been lacking. This just adds that much more pressure on the opposing defense. One less person to cram the line and thus creates better rushing options for either Eddie or Steve McNair. Also makes our tight ends that much better. Man this is a huge pick-up for the Titans...

AFC East : Indianapolis - They are clearly the best team in this division.

AFC Central : Tennessee - Best team, in the toughest division

AFC West : Denver - Terrell. Davis.

Wildcards - Baltimore, Oakland and Jacksonville

<u>NFC</u>

NFC East : Washington - With that much talent, they'd better win their division,

NFC Central : Tampa Bay - Stellar Defense.

NFC West : St. Louis - Who cares who's quarterback? I could be quarterback with this offense.

Wildcards - Dallas, Chicago and Green Bay

Super Bowl : Tennessee 17, Tampa Bay 16. Tennessee wins on a last second Al Del Greco Field Goal.

************************************************************ ******************************
For those of you who watched last nights Monday Night Football game. The Titans offense looked awesome. The Titans are known for being a ball control offense. Last night they ran it to perfection. Steve McNair and Neil O'Donnel passed the ball real well. I liked the fact that the offense was spread out. I think 8 different receivers had receptions.

Pickens lost a step? I don't think so?Pickens will do just fine with the Titans. He can flat out jump out of his shoes and grabs balls out of midair. He is a big play clutch receiver.

Moestavern19 is correct in that McNair isn't looking to throw every down. I think the team you were thinking of is the Rams!!! When you have Eddie George as an option you use it!!! George looked like he is ready to have a monster season.

Man how many days until the NFL season starts? Bring it on....

------------------
Titan's fanatic!!!!

It was the first time the Titans sent an offense to the line of scrimmage with Eddie George in the backfield behind McNair to go with Wycheck at tight end and Carl Pickens, Kevin Dyson and Yancey Thigpen at wide receiver.

So many choices, with a full season still ahead.

I still stand by my predictions although i like baltimore a lot now. iN THE NFC the rams d will prevent a super bowl appearance and the redskins fa's havent helped and westbrooks out for the year. Bye Bye. The class of the nfc will be left standing: the buccaneers! Alstott/dunn is a stud rb combo and keyshawn will open up many opportunties for green and anthony. As for king, im really impressed with him. He is truly good. The bucs will be the nfc's sb representative over the rams. As for the afc, i still like indy a lot as tennessee looks like they forget how they played last year and jacksonville isnt as tough. Also on the raiders lost, that was a fluke, they wont blow that kind of lead again. Manning is a hall of fame quarterback and their d will improve enough to get them to the big dance. Im still not sold on the raiders but i like the broncos or baltimore to play indy in the afc title game. Later!
