Tennessee Titans

The Tennessee Titans shocked the football world by beating the Patriots on Wild Card weekend. Everyone in New England thought it was all but certain that the Patriots would be playing in the Divisional round.

Now this might come as a shock to some fans. Why would we root for the team that just beat us?

Well since we did lose, I would rather lose to the eventual Super Bowl champs. It would make the disappointing loss sting a little less.

The Titans clearly have a talented team. Derrick Henry could take them all the way. He seems impossible for defenses to stop.

Also going into Gillette Stadium in January and defeating the Patriots is no easy task. The Titans should be commended for their amazing play.
