As we head into the regular-season opener on Sunday, the Tennessee Titans are largely being overlooked nationally — and that isn’t exactly a surprise, either.
Even when the Titans were legitimate Super Bowl contenders from 2020-21, people were talking about them as if they weren’t even the best team in their own division.
Needless to say, when the team falls apart the way it did at the end of 2022, it’s the perfect excuse for everyone to disregard them heading into 2023.
The most ironic thing about that is the fact that many of these people ignore the streak in the middle of the season when a healthy Titans team won seven out of eight games.
Yet, they act like there’s no logical explanation for why the team lost seven straight contests to end the year, when the reality is Tennessee was without what felt like a countless amount of starters, including its starting quarterback.
Personally, I’m not one of those who just assumes something bad is going to happen solely because things went wrong to end the 2022 season. Instead, I’m making my season prediction based on the talent and potential of this 2023 Titans roster and coaching staff.
