NFL Power Rankings Time

It is time to take a look at where the so-called experts think the Titans rank against the other teams of the NFL.

ESPN.com:

8. Titans


Good news for the Titans: Their next three games are at home. Better news: QB Vince Young should return from injury this week against the Raiders.

FOXSports.com:

7. Titans


No Vince Young? No Chris Brown? No problem -- not when there's a guy named Rob Bironas on the roster. Bironas, the undrafted kicker out of Louisville, booted an NFL-record eight field goals in the Titans' wild 38-36 win on Sunday. The biggest kick came on the last play of the game as Bironas nailed a game-winning 29-yard field goal as time expired. The Titans squandered a 32-7 lead, allowing the Sage Rosenfels-led Texans to score 29 fourth-quarter points before pulling it together in the final moments. Tennessee's now 4-2 with the Raiders up this week. Jeff Fisher and Norm Chow versus Lane Kiffin -- it should be a real USC Trojans affair.

FootballLocks.com:

5. Titans


Playing without Vince Young the Titans took a 32-7 lead into the 4th quarter in Houston only to relinquish the lead by allowing 4 touchdown passes to Sage Rosenfels in for Shaub who was injured in the first half... Fortunately for Tennessee, Rob Bironas nailed his 8th field goal of the day (a new NFL record) as time expired to help the Titans improve to (4-2)...

NFLReport.com:

8. Titans


Minus Vince Young, Tennessee won a nail-biter over Houston in week seven, thanks in large part to the right leg of Kicker Rob Bironas and his NFL record eight successful field goals.

CBSSportsline:

9. Titans


They won without Vince Young, even if they didn't make it easy. The defense is playing well, except for that fourth-quarter letdown against the Texans.

NewsDay.com:

9. Titans


No Vince Young, no problem. Kerry Collins and kicker Rob Bironas combine to beat Texans on the road. Bironas leads the way with eight field goals.

NFL.com:

8. Titans


After an emotionally and physically draining win, the Titans better have something left in the tank for Oakland.

Hashmarks:

12. Titans
Does anyone read Hashmarks?  Is it an NFL blog or a Cowboys blog?

The Big Lead:

5. Titans


Records show Jeff Fisher bought heavy stock in smoke and mirrors Friday. We should have known.
That is a solid 7.88 average.

The Jags Vs. Titans in the Rankings
Why do they always put the Jags ahead of us?

We lost to the Colts by three, much closer than the Jags were.

We beat them handily on opening day at their own place!

We are ahead of them in the standings for the AFC South!!

This makes no sense to me. Someone please esplain.

There is no reason
that you should be behind the Jags. You kicked their butts and played CIndianapolis closer. These ratings are a joke.

Having said that, you get too much credit for how good your division is. That perception gives all your teams a boost too much.

Say, CIndy is the only team in your division that has the QB they started the season with. That is pathetic, and it exposes a flaw of this division.

Send you a postcard from Arizona this February...

How is it a flaw
of the division that QBs have gotten hurt?

Exposes
All that exposes is that our division's defenses get after the passer. We play tough, hard nosed football in the AFC South. That's what it means.

You Want Exposed Weaknesses?
Just pray Brady doesn't go down this year.
