PrintWatching ESPN's Chris Berman this morning, I heard him say "As we predicted" with reference to the Tennessee Titans making the playoffs.
This pegged my BS meter, seeing as virtually everyone had us not only not making the playoffs, but not even having a winning season.
So, I did a little digging and present to you ESPNs NFL Power Rankings prior to the 2007-2008 season. I'm pretty sure ranking a team 21st would exclude them from the playoffs, unless it's some sort of new math going on.
So, no Chris, you all did not predict the Titans in the playoffs. You were off by nine places.
I love the internet.
