The Tennessee Titans will have little time to reflect on their disappointing 19-13 loss in Pittsburgh on Sunday. They’ll turn right around and host the red-hot San Francisco 49ers on “Thursday Night Football.”
The 49ers are currently riding a two-game win streak in the series, with the Titans’ last win at home against San Francisco coming in November 2005.
