Tennessee Titans @ Buffalo Bills

by Steve

Ouch, no podcast this week?  The Bills haven't beaten the Titans since the "revenge game" 9/3/00 after the illegal forward pass play in Tennessee the year before.  I have no idea how that exactly equates to the game Sunday but I just wanted to sound like I did research.

The Titans average the least number of rushing yards in the National Football League and the Bills allow the most rushing yards in the National Football League.  Something has to give and if I was a betting man I'd bet on Chris Johnson and the Titans racking up BIG yards. (Then again, if you subtract the fake punt and Kevin Kolb's rushing yards the Bills only gave up 92 yards last week.)

Yes, the Bills aren't good but since when is beating the Cardinals in Arizona not a good win?  They were 4-1, had won 8 straight in the desert and were favored by 5 points.  Maybe it's because we only remember Chanwick fuckin up on nearly every decision the last four minutes of the game.

Buffalo is only a 3.5 point favorite because the Titans got three extra days to prepare?  Because they luckily beat a down Pittsburgh team a week ago in prime time in their barn?  I'm not impressed by Munchak and co. I just don't get it.  On the road this team has lost by an average of 25 points.

Are the Bills supposed to be scared of a 37 year old back up in Matt Hasselbeck?  Or their 28th ranked defense?  Their grand total of four interceptions?

What is the reason to not pick a blow out at the Ralph Sunday?
