With the Tennessee Titans’ 2022 season in the books, it’s time for one last NFL power rankings round-up ahead of the offseason.
We start with Dan Hanzus of NFL.com, who places the Titans at No. 22 on his list, which is actually three spots higher than they were the week prior. Here’s what he had to say:
The Titans put up a valiant fight in Week 18, outplaying the favored Jaguars for 55 minutes before a disastrous turnover created the touchdown that served as the difference in a 20-16 defeat. While it’s obviously painful to lose a game and a division in such a dramatic manner, this is also a diminished team that was never going to make much noise in the playoffs. “We didn’t do a good enough job — we lost too many games,” coach Mike Vrabel said Monday. “That self-reflection, nobody would evaluate that they did a good enough job because we didn’t win. … The short answer is: It wasn’t good enough.” Changes are inevitable, and they began Monday with the announcement that offensive coordinator Todd Downing and three other assistants had been let go.
Now, the rest of our power rankings round-up as the Titans prepare for what should be an interesting offseason.
