2. team. 35. . 12-5. . Tennessee Titans

Titans streak comes to an end

The Tennessee Titans will finally be knocked off the top, barely. The Titans will finish 5-1 in the division and will have a hot streak to close out the season.

With the departure of A.J. Brown during the draft, the Titans will be forced to rebuild connections on the offense with Ryan Tannehill and his receivers. Tannehill is also semi-aware that he is competing for his starting job in Tennessee.

With Malik Willis on the horizon, it’s going to be looming in the air that a wrong move will have Tannehill packing his bags to move to his third team.

The big marker here on the Titans’ schedule will be a road win against the Colts, just to follow up with a home loss following a bye week. Indianapolis and Tennessee will split the series, but the Titans will ultimately lose the division.

However, they will still finish 12-5 and have a really good chance at making the playoffs in one of the wild card spots. Depending on how things shake out, Tennessee could match up with Indianapolis for a third time next season in the playoffs.
