Tennessee Titans @ Seattle Seahawks preview

The Tennessee Titans (7-8) are disappointed they are missing the playoffs this year after going 13-3 last year, but after an 0-6 start they should be proud of the way they fought their way back into contention.  An 8-8 season looks much better than 7-9, so the Titans should come out and try and crush the Seattle Seahawks (5-10) on Sunday.  There is a lot the Titans can be proud about, including Chris Johnson’s monster season of1,872 rushing yards and 12 touchdowns.  Vince Young’s resurgence gives Titans’ fans a lot of hope for next season, but he still has not solidified his spot for next season.  Another strong game this season would go a long way for his season next year.

The Seahawks are not particularly good at stopping the run, so the Titans should give the ball to Chris Johnson as much as they can and let him run into the record books.  Young can provide some support in the passing game, as well as with his own legs.  Johnson is the key to the Titans success though, so he should get a ton of carries.  Seattle gives up 110 rushing yards per game, but I expect the Titans to run up a lot more yardage than that.  If the Titans come out ready to play, they should get a convincing win.

PREDICTION:  Tennessee Titans 28, Seattle Seahawks 20
