3 keys to the game;

 

1.  As usual, it all comes down to containing Derrick Henry.  The Titans had 46 offensive snaps vs the Giants last week and 21 of them were runs to Henry and he had one target in the passing game.   47.8% of the entire Titans' offense vs the Giants was Henry.  There were only five runs to someone other than Henry last week.

 

2.  This relates to point 1 above, the Bills' offense needs to get off to a fast start and put points on the board and force the ball out of Henry's hands and into Tannehill's.  I don't think Tannehill can go toe to toe with Josh in a shoot out.  That offense is not going to score more than 30 points against our defense.  The Titans have to be hoping to keep Henry on the field chewing up clock and Allen sitting on the bench.  The Bills can't let that happen.

 

3.  The Titans' defense had 5 sacks and 8 QB hits on Daniel Jones last week.  I think that our O-Line is more capable than the Giants, but keeping Josh upright is going to be vital to keep drives alive and put points on the board.

 

 

 

 

This game goes one of two ways.  Buffalo slows down Henry and scores TD --> lopsided victory.  Buffalo has no answer for Henry, safeties and LBs cheat toward scrimmage and Tannehill starts working the pass game --> Josh has to single handedly win the game with some last minute heroics.

The first option seems like it would be a little boring.

Not quite breaking news

Week 2, Buffalo will host Tennessee in their home opener.

 

One Titans player that will not be on the field is linebacker Harold Landry.

This Titans team isn't as good as the past few seasons. Obviously anything can happen but I would be shocked if the Bills lose this one. They had 4 turnovers vs the Rams and still won by 21. Have to think the Bills offense with a game under their belt won't be as careless with the ball.

I love how they put that Tua throw in the middle hahahahaha

Early Titans thoughts on this one.

 

1. Dontrell Hilliard, RB2, led the team in TDs.  Both his TDs were short throws, 7 yards and another that went for 23 yards.  So watching him out of the backfield will be important.

2. Robert Woods only had one reception.  I expect Tannehill to pay more attention to his wide receivers in this one.  

3. Jeffrey Simmons is a beast.  He had 2 sacks, one a strip sack where he cleanly beat three Giants.  

4. Kyle Phillips, WR a 5th round pick led them with 6 catches for 66 yards.

5. Not sure what to make of the Giants gouging them on the ground.  Barkley had a 9.1 yard average on 18 carries.  

6. Treylon Burks had a nice 11 YAC average on is three catches.  So I expect a lot of crossing routes for him.

Someone should @ ramsey with that quote so he knows how to set himself up to look good/right, instead of bad/wrong after a game.  First, you give them respect, then you can talk ***** (if you did well that is).

Poke, a lot of people were a little harsh on you,  it I cannot honestly see that many losses without losing Allen.  Even if we god forbid lost Allen, Keenum can win a few games with this loaded team.

 

The Titans have regressed, and we should decisively beat them as the Fins and Steelers.  The Steelers have the defense, but their offense is still a ?  Harris turned out to be a very good rookie back, but he’ll face a much more stout defensive interior.  I’ve yet to see Jones or Settle be moved, and Phillips is fast for a large man.

 

I’ll believe Tua when he proves it against other winning teams.  All the weapons in the world without a great QB can only get you so far.

 

The next real test which I believe will be a closer game is the Ravens.  They will be back to form from 2019 where they went 12 and 13 personnel, and it will work on a lot of teams.  It won’t gainer us.  We should win, but it will be a tough game.

 

The two I have no idea are the Chiefs and Packers.  We’ll see how championship ready this team is after week 8.  Between the Ravens, Chiefs and Packers, we’ll know if we are heading towards the SB.

I think Miami is a going to be a thorn in our side this year.

 

After the whooping KC put on a hyped Arizona team, it feels like we are on another collision course with them for the AFCCG.

I enjoyed watching Red Zone all day yesterday and I'll enjoy it again this Sunday. Also prime time Josh Allen always plays at an elite level. Enjoy it while we can.

I have three TVs on my patio.  They all have sunday ticket😁😁😁😁😁.  

  I just cant watch live games on weeknights.  My days start WAY to early.  

 But.....  It is petty when we have the best team in football. Lol

How Kevin Byard views Tennessee Titans' rivalry with Buffalo Bills? 'A respect thing'

Guys play hard," he said via Zoom. “Josh Allen, he plays hard. Their running backs run hard. (Stefon) Diggs plays hard. I think it’s just the entire team and I think that’s what makes the matchups exciting.

Not that its good to do this, but he did have 1 run that he busted loose for 68yds.  Take that run out and his average is 5.6yds/carry.    Still really good, but not quite as gaudy.   Either way it’s hard to say with one game if its due to a bad Titans run defense, or a really good Giants run game. 
 

I would add the Bills need to be ready for Tannenhill keeping drives alive with scrambles.  He’s not the best rusher, but he’s proven to be quite effective if the defense clears the underneath zones and gives him a free 7-10yds to run out of bounds.

The Titans will be ready to play no one wants to start 0-2 and we owe them a butt kicking. Should be fun I no I’m ready. GO Bills 

[Aurelius]

Titans will be without their End Landry for the game which should help.  Like last game, I think the key is defense and our front 4.  I think it will be a lot harder for Henry this year. I think another key could be to get James Cook involved catching passes out of the backfield.  Time to get him some carries and some confidence.  Time to squash this number the Titans have done on us over past few years.  Time for it to be our year.

This is IMO what has cost us in the last two meetings.  We could not contain Tannehill scrambling for first downs even on third and long.
