Browns verses  Titans
Vegas Line: Titans - 16  Over/Under: 35.5

What to expect from Titans offense?

The Titans are going to be mad for blowing the Ravens game at home.Usually a reliable Al Del Greco missed a pat and a 42 yd. field goal? The Titans will pound the ball with Eddie George and McNair will be threat to take off out of the pocket and run if given the chance. The T.E. plays a big part in the passing game and last year their TE Wycheck had big games against us.

What the Browns defense has to do!

First they must stop Eddie George and contain McNair in the pocket and force him to pass. It's so much easier said then done-ha! But Browns defense played a full sixty minutes against a not so bad Patriots team.

What the Browns must do!

Continue their success from last week with the short passing game mixed in with the running game. Pederson is looking more comfortable with the offense and I expect them to add a few special looks for the Titans.

What do I think?

I really expect the Browns to play the Titans tough. They know that the Titans are a good test to see where the team is at. Still the injuries to the offense won't give them enough fire power to win. The points might look good in this game? I say the Titans by 14?

*Results*

One as to wonder what this teams record would be with out all the injuries on the offense? The Browns defense had seven turn-overs and four the week before! But the no-name offense couldn't take advantage of them. The defense played tough for three quarters before getting tired. The offense could only produce a 125 yd. of offense. Coach Palmer should get some kind of award for having these guys playing so hard!
