Ah yes it's GAMEDAY AGAIN! With life being so strange and depressing these days, NFL Sunday is just such a massive blessing. Seriously just unbelievably grateful this week.
The Titans looked super sloppy last week. No doubt about it. But I have a mild hunch that they will look better this week. I think at best the Rams' defense is as good if not slightly worse than the Broncos' defense overall. Both teams are pretty good defensively, but still.
The Titans are a raw, inexperienced team in so many ways. I think they learned a lot last week, including HC Brian Callahan. The Rams are really good don't get me wrong. But they have had sorta the same core for awhile now. Sean McVay is brilliant but everyone kinda knows that and perhaps they know his style of coaching at this point. Matthew Stafford and Davante Adams are not only mildly past their primes, but they're also still getting used to each other. They can still beat you though don't get me wrong, they're absolute gamers, but I don't see them as like an absolutely unbeatable force. Kyren Williams doesn't impress me all that much.
The one player on the Rams whose actually fully scary and absolutely in his prime though is Puka Nacua. He's one of my favorite players in the NFL and can wreck a game. Also on the defensive side of the ball Jared Verse is pretty scary.
But yeah for the Titans I like our defense a lot and don't imagine they'll get overwhelmed completely. I also anticipate just a lot of improvement as a whole. The Titans are young and unknown and probably will be overlooked to an extent by the Rams. I'm sure they'll be pretty locked in but I mean, most people don't have a high opinion of the Titans.
If the Titans show improvement as I've said and can not have 87 penalties like last week, and being at home, the Titans could have themselves a little upset today, I'd love to see it!
Here goes nothing!! I am ready!!!
No matter what I'll just enjoy the moment. Life is so crazy these days, just watching the boys go to battle will be nice. A good temporary distraction.
