I don’t get why people keep mentioning the 9-7 record.
They are 8-3 since Tannehill took over.
That’s what you look at.
What they were with Mariota means nothing.
The Pats started the year 8-0 on a padded schedule, too. Guess what happened when they came to Baltimore for a night game after a bye. Chargers, Bucs, Jags, Colts, Raiders were 5 of the 8 wins. Houston rested after beating them in Tennessee 3 weeks earlier. It's hard to respect Tannehill or the Titans for what they've done during a team period that they had an easy schedule. Even the Chiefs game they eked out and likely don't do so if the game is in KC.
The Titans aren't a bad team. But the Ravens are a historically good one. They might be more like a 10-6 team, but I wouldn't put their talent level at 11-5.
