Can the Titans get a better showing from their ground game against an elite Saints run defense?

There was no rest for the Tennessee Titans’ coaching staff after the team’s thrilling 28-16 victory over the Los Angeles Rams on “Sunday Night Football.”

According to Jim Wyatt of Titans Online, the team’s video staff had prepared the Saints tape for the plane ride home from L.A., something head coach Mike Vrabel revealed on Monday.

The Titans are winners of their last five games, including a perfect 4-0 through their most difficult stretch of the 2021 schedule. With a 7-2 record, Vrabel’s group is currently holding the No. 1 seed in the AFC if the playoffs started today.

On the other side, the New Orleans Saints went through a considerable transition during the offseason, with long-time quarterback Drew Brees announcing his retirement from the game. The Saints come into Nissan Stadium with a 5-3 record and second place in the NFC North Division.

These two teams last met in December 2019, with the Saints winning 38-28 on the road. However, the Titans have won the last four out of six versus the Saints dating back to 1999.
