*2007 Stats

It is pretty cool that the Titans will be playing on Thanksgiving this year.

The Lions have a very talented offensive squad.  Jon Kitna isn't the best QB in the league, but he, unlike Vince Young, has weapons.  He has one of the best receiver combos in the league with Roy Williams and Calvin Johnson.  Johnson had a great preseason, and looks like he is ready to be the stud receiver they thought he was when they drafted him.  The Lions rushing attack got a boost this week with the signing of Rudi Johnson.  They also drafted running back Kevin Smith out of Central Florida.

The Lions defensive squad is not really talented.  The Titans should be to control time of possession and keep the Lions offense off the field.  Look for LenDale White to carry the ball 30+ times in this game.  Hopefully they can keep him from eating Thanksgiving Dinner until after the game.

The Titans will rack up 200+ yards on the ground a win this one going away.  10-2 baby.

“Hopefully they can keep him from eating Thanksgiving Dinner until after the game.”

F’in classic Jimmy.

This will be a treat for sure. I’ve been wanting to see the Titans play on Turkey day for awhile.

Ha

Well, the Lions will be in the middle of their annual 2nd half swoon by this time, Kitna throws a lot of picks, and the Lions just always underachieve. Gonna be great watching the Titans win on Turkey Day though!

Lendale White

Let’s hope he doesn’t get 30 carries. Hopefully by now CJ will be taking 40%. I’d like to see White carry 18-20 times a game, with CJ at 14-16. We can give Chris Henry 2-4.

Why...

Do you give Henry 2-4?

by BeansCarter on Sep 6, 2008 11:21 AM CDT to parent up   0 recs

This is certainly a game we need to win...

as the next four games will be tough. Hope the secondary performs well and the D-line brings the pressure

Go Titans!
