This time last year, the Tennessee Titans were 1-1, fresh off grinding out a penalty-laden win against the Detroit Lions. I was encouraged by the promise of the team, but still had low expectations for a quick turnaround. So, if you were to tell me then that in one year the Titans would be three-point favorites against the Seattle Seahawks, I wouldn’t have believed you.
The small amount of time it took to become a competitive team is quite a feat. But the Titans can’t waste time patting themselves on the back; they are still just 1-1 and are facing a Seahawks team that has made the playoffs for four straight postseasons.
