The Tennessee Titans sit atop the AFC South in first place with a 2-1 record after defeating the Indianapolis Colts in Week 3, 25-16, which you would assume has them moving up in the NFL power rankings of experts.
However, despite the victory and having won each of their last two games, not every expert has Tennessee moving up.
First, we start with USA TODAY’s Nate Davis, who has the Titans moving back two spots to No. 14 after the victory over the Colts. Here’s his take:
14. Titans (12): Six targets per game for WR Julio Jones doesn’t seem like nearly enough, while 31 touches per game for RB Derrick Henry seems like a bit too much? Even for him?
Part of the reason the Titans are moving backwards in Davis’ rankings is that teams like the Green Bay Packers, Los Angeles Chargers, Carolina Panthers and New Orleans Saints all leap-frogged them.
Now, let’s take a look at where other experts have Tennessee ranked after Week 3.
