NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- The Tennessee Titans and Jacksonville Jaguars will play this Sunday for the second time in three NFL weeks.
Such quick divisional rematches are a buzz kill for fans, I believe. Schedule makers should have to make the two games between division rivals at least six weeks apart. That would increase the chances that the teams encounter each other at different stages of their seasons.
But from the perspective of a coach like Titans interim man Mike Mularkey, facing the same opponent again in short order comes with advantages regarding preparation.
