I think the Titans will win , but I believe it will be a lot closer than people are thinking . The Titans for whatever reason seem to struggle against backup QBs that they have no business struggling against . It doesn ' t matter how good our defenses have been , they still struggle . I ' ll continue to believe in that trend until we shut it down . The biggest factor is that we still haven ' t had our bye week . We were sucking wind last week . Our receivers were jogging and looked tired . The offensive linemen didn ' t have their normal explosion . Our already weak defense was playing catchup on every play . We ' re going to have to have a turnover free day from Mariota and the run game has got to get going this week . I ' m not sure if I ' m comfortable with our passing game having to carry us again this week after the way our pass protection and receivers played .
