Was the Tennessee Titans’ impressive playoff run during the 2019 season enough to garner some early respect from ESPN in its “way-too-early” power rankings?
As a matter of fact, it was.
According to ESPN, the Titans are the No. 8 team in its power rankings, which puts them ahead of the rest of the AFC South and as the fourth-best team in the conference behind the Kansas City Chiefs (No. 1), Baltimore Ravens (No. 3) and New England Patriots (No. 7).
Of course, you could make a case for the Titans to be ahead of the Patriots and Ravens after they beat both teams in back-to-back weeks in the playoffs, but I guess we’ll just have to take it for now.
