The Tennessee Titans proved their worth in January with victories at New England and Baltimore. And as a credit to their accomplishments, a win at Kansas City would have cemented the Titans as the best the AFC has to offer in the Super Bowl on February 2.
The Titans surprised many by getting a lead over the Patriots in Foxborough in the wild card round and then sitting on it. They shocked everyone by doing the same to the top-seeded Ravens in the divisional round. In both of those games, the Titans were able to play their game by getting a lead and then paralyzing their opponent with their defense.
