The Titans treated this game like a real tune-up as they even faked a punt that safety Vincent Fuller ran for a 40-yard TD.  Vince Young had a so-so effort as he completed 13 of 27 passes for 134 yards.  He also carried the ball 3 times for 57 yards (19.0 ypc).  Kerry Collins also had a so-so game completing 5 of 7 passes for 61 yards with 1 interception.  Ingle Martin finished up this game completing 1 of 4 passes for 8 yards.  LenDale White led the Titans in rushing in this game with 55 yards on 16 carries (3.4 ypc).  Chris Henry pitched in with 24 yards on 10 carries (2.4 ypc) against the Packers.  Rookie RB Chris Johnson was also very busy as he carried the ball 8 times for 24 yards (3.0 ypc) with a TD run (1-yarder).  He also caught 4 passes for 46 yards (11.5 avg) against the Packers.  Justin McCareins was the leading receiver for the Titans in this game as he had 79 yards on 3 grabs (26.3 avg).  The Titans played keepaway in this game as they had possession of the football for 36:45.  The Titans finished up with 206 yards rushing on 40 carries (5.2 ypc) and they also completed 19 of 38 passes for 197 yards.

Linebacker Stanford Kegler led the way for the Titans in this game with 6 tackles.  Fellow linebackers Stephen Tulloch (4 tackles, fumble recovery) and Colin Allred (3 tackles, fumble recovery) also had solid games against the Packers.  The Titans rolled up six sacks in this football game.  The Packers finished up with 116 yards rushing on 22 carries (5.5 ypc) and they also completed 16 of 26 passes for 150 yards.  The Titans finish the preseason with a 3-1 record and they hope the momentum they have built carries into the regular season.

Atlanta Falcons 17, Tennessee Titans 3

The Tennessee Titans got pushed around last night by the Falcons in Atlanta.  Vince Young had another subpar game as he completed 9 of 18 passes for 102 yards with a interception.  He also carried the ball 3 times for 16 yards.  Kicker John Vaughn nailed a 50-yard field goal on a drive led by Young which was the only points the Titans put on the scoreboard.  Kerry Collins was pathetic last night as he only completed 1 of 8 passes for 20 yards.  Ingle Martin finished up the game for the Titans last night completing 3 of 6 passes for 35 yards.  Charles Johnson led the Titans’ in rushing last night with 35 yards on 11 carries (3.2 ypc) and he also caught 2 passes for 23 yards (11.5 avg).  Justin Gage pitched in with 2 receptions for 23 yards last night.  The Titans finished up with 75 yards rushing on 22 carries (3.4 ypc) and they also completed 13 of 32 passes for only 140 yards last night.  The Titans only had possession of the football for 23:54 last night and it’s hard to win a football game that way.

Safety Donnie Nickey and conerbacks Reynaldo Hill and Cortland Finnegan led the way for the Titans’ defense last night with 5 tackles apiece.  The Falcons rushed for 145 yards on 30 carries (4.8 ypc) and they also completed 24 of 32 passes for 175 yards.  The Titans need to get there act together soon as the regular season starts in two weeks.

Rookie RB Chris Johnson is putting pressure on LenDale White for the starting gig at RB for the Tennessee Titans

Rookie Chris Johnson has been outstanding this preseason as he is applying pressure to LenDale White of the Titans for the featured role in the running game.  Johnson has carried the football 14 times for 123 yards (8.8 ypc) with 1 TD run this preseason.  Johnson is a lot faster than White, but, White has a lot more Power than Johnson.  LenDale White has carried the football 14 times for 72 yards (5.1 ypc) this preseason.  Look for Johnson and White to share the job early in the regular season.

The Titans won the football game last night but they didn’t really play that well especially on defense where they gave up 380 yards.  The Titans won the game on a last second field goal by John Vaughn covering 33 yards.  Fullback Ahmard Hall also had a huge play in this game on special teams when he scored a TD by recovering a Johnnie Lee Higgins’ fumble in the end zone. 

Vince Young was terrible last night as he couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn.  He completed only 4 of 13 passes for only 37 yards last night.  Kerry Collins was just a tad better than Young completing only 4 of 15 passes for 109 yards with a 51-yard TD strike to rookie Lavelle Hawkins.  Third stringer Ingle Martin led the Titans on the game winning drive last night as he was 6 of 11 for 103 yards.  Rookie RB Charles Johnson looked special again last night leading the Titans’ in rushing with 46 yards on 8 carries (5.8 ypc).  LenDale White also looked pretty good last night rushing for 39 yards on 8 carries (4.9 ypc).  Chris Henry pitched in with 28 yards rushing on 5 carries (5.6 ypc) last night.  Rookie WR Lavelle Hawkins had a good game with 2 grabs for 70 yards (35.0 avg) including a 51-yard TD reception.  Biren Ealy pitched in with 3 catches for 50 yards (16.7 avg) and TE Bo Scaife caught 3 passes for 40 yards (13.3 avg).  The Titans finished up with 140 yards rushing on 26 carries (5.4 ypc) and they also completed 14 of 39 passes for 228 yards.

The Titans’ defense did not look good last night despite only giving up 16 points.  Linebacker Stanford Keglar led the way for the Titans last night with 8 tackles and a fumble recovery.  Linebacker Stephen Tulloch and safety Vincent Fuller each pitched in with 7 tackles apiece.  The Raiders finished up with 224 yards rushing on 37 carries (6.1 ypc) last night.  They also completed 17 of 28 passes for 156 yards.

The Tennessee Titans kicked the Rams’ butts up and down the field last Saturday Night.  Vince Young made a brief appearance and he completed 3 of 6 passes for 17 yards and he also carried the ball 1 time for 35 yards.  Kerry Collins got the most playing time of the QBs as he completed 7 of 16 passes for 105 yards.  Ingle Martin finished up the game completing 3 of 4 passes for 39 yards.  The Titans had 6 players rush for at least 33 yards in this game and the player with the most was Quinton Ganther who rushed for 115 yards on 8 carries (14.4 ypc) with 2 TD runs (45 yards, 2 yards).  Chris Johnson was also outstanding in his NFL debut as he carried the ball 6 times for 77 yards (12.8 ypc) with 1 TD run (66 yards).  Chris Henry pitched in with 38 yards rushing on 9 carries (4.2 ypc).  Omar Cuff was also busy with 33 yards on 9 carries (3.7 ypc).  LenDale White started out the game and he rushed the ball 6 times for 33 yards (5.5 ypc).  TE James Petrowski led Titans’ receivers with 43 yards on 2 receptions (21.5 avg).  The Titans finished this game with an amazing 340 yards rushing on 43 carries (7.9 ypc).  They also completed 13 of 26 passes for 155 yards as they held onto the football for a stunning 34:41 in this game!

The Titans’ defense was also impressive on Saturday Night.  CB Eric King (5 tackles) and safety Vincent Fuller (5 tackles, sack) led the way for the defense.  Outside linebacker Keith Bulluck only had 2 tackles on the night but he returned a interception off of Marc Bulger 13 yards for a TD.  The Rams finished up with 76 yards rushing on 20 carries (3.8 ypc).  They also completed 17 of 31 passes for 165 yards against the Titans.  This was a very good all around effort for the Titans in the preseason opener.
