Titans To Interview Matt LaFleur

The Tennessee Titans will interview Rams offensive coordinator Matt LaFleur for their vacant head coaching position, according to a person with knowledge of the situation. LaFleur was working under the tutelage of impressive young Rams head coach Sean McVay in 2017, and he also worked with him in Washington. It would be an outside-the-box hire, […]

Josh McDaniels May Prefer Titans Head Coaching Job

The belief is that Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels would prefer the Titans head coaching position over all the others. The health of Colts quarterback Andrew Luck (shoulder) is an issue, and McDaniels likes the high ceiling of Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota. The Colts job isn't all that attractive unless Luck is able to return […]

Titans To Interview Mike Vrabel For Head Coaching Position

The Tennessee Titans will interview Texans defensive coordinator Mike Vrabel for their vacant head coaching position. With former head coach Mike Mularkey and the Titans agreeing to part ways Monday, the Titans will now need to search for a new head coach to help improve quarterback Marcus Mariota and the offense. Vrabel doesn't seem like […]

Titans, Mike Mularkey Agree To Part Ways

The Tennessee Titans and head coach Mike Mularkey have agreed to part ways, according to a league source. This seems odd after the Titans reportedly were offering Mularkey a contract extension after the Titans pulled off a surprise comeback upset of the Chiefs in the Wild-Card round. However, Mularkey's decisions on offense during the season […]

Jack Conklin Needs Surgery On Torn ACL

Tennessee Titans offensive tackle Jack Conklin (knee) suffered a torn left ACL in the Divisional Round loss to the Patriots, and he'll need to undergo surgery. “He will be a possible PUP candidate once we get though training camp just based on the timing of the injury, which is unfortunate," head coach Mike Mularkey said. […]

Jonnu Smith Tore MCL In Playoffs

Tennessee Titans rookie tight end Jonnu Smith (knee) suffered a torn MCL in the Divisional Round loss to the Patriots. However, he should be able to participate in organized team activities in the offseason, barring any setbacks. In Smith's first season in the NFL, he caught 18 passes for 157 yards and two touchdowns. As […]

DeMarco Murray Expects To Bounce Back In 2018

Tennessee Titans running back DeMarco Murray is hoping to bounce back in 2018 after dealing with several injuries and a down season in 2017. “I am very confident in myself and I am excited,” Murray said. “I am excited about the future, and my future. I know what kind of player I am.” Murray missed […]

Marcus Mariota Suffered Sprained Quad

Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota (quadriceps) suffered a strained quadriceps in the first quarter of the Divisional Round loss to the Patriots on Saturday, according to head coach Mike Mularkey. Mariota's injury forced the team to alter their offensive game plan, and it likely played a part in Mariota being sacked eight times. Mariota's scrambling […]

Heroes and Zeroes - Divisional Round Fantasy Football Picks

I have to admit I'm a bit peeved that LeSean McCoy miraculously healed from his ankle injury in time to ruin my Marcus Murphy sleeper pick. Otherwise, I might have gone six-for-six on my Hero picks last week. Sure, Kareem Hunt didn't put up huge numbers, but he did score a touchdown to at least […]

The second round of the playoffs is here, which means that this is the final week in which we'll have four games going. Below is a potential bust for each team this weekend.

Deeper DraftKings DFS Sleepers for the Divisional Round

How did that first weekend of the playoffs treat you? If you thought the Chiefs and Rams were close to being sure things, well...you were disappointed. Neither offense delivered, with Kansas City running back Kareem Hunt disappearing in the second half despite his team playing with a big lead, and the Rams explosive offense couldn't […]

Derrick Henry The Present And Future In Tennessee

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry is clearly the present and the future for the team with DeMarco Murray likely on his way out. The Titans have high expectations for Henry, and former running back Eddie George thinks Henry can be a "1,500-1,800-yard type of running back." Since entering the league in 2016, the Titans […]

NFL Rookies To Watch In The Divisional Round

Each week, we will look at rookies who have either performed well the previous few weeks or who have a favorable matchup in the upcoming week. These may be high-profile names or under-the-radar depth players; the only thing that matters is that they are first-year pros ready to make a name for themselves. Hopefully, by […]

Titans Wide Receivers All Risky Plays In Divisional Round

Tennessee Titans wide receivers Rishard Matthews, Eric Decker and Corey Davis have become a bit harder to predict in recent weeks. Matthews was the clear top fantasy option for the majority of the season, but his usage lately has been concerning. Decker and Davis have either outperformed or matched Matthews the last few weeks of the season. […]

Delanie Walker A Strong Play In Divisional Game

Tennessee Titans tight end Delanie Walker came out of his slump last Saturday against the Kansas City Chiefs, catching six passes for 74 yards in the comeback win. Walker's usage had been fading late in the regular season, but the Titans made an effort to get him more involved in the critical playoff game. Expect […]

Derrick Henry Looking To Continue Strong Performance

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry is primed to get his third straight start this week against the New England Patriots. Henry is looking to keep it going following performances with 117 and 191 yards in back-to-back weeks. Henry has definitely passed the eye test as the new starting running back of the Titans, but […]

Marcus Mariota Needs To Come Up Big For Titans

Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota has not had the big statistical year that everyone expected, but he showed last week just why everyone in the organization is fully behind him. Mariota led three straight touchdown drives in the comeback win against the Kansas City Chiefs, including throwing a touchdown to himself. Mariota's toughness and will […]

DeMarco Murray Ruled Out Against Patriots

Tennessee Titans running back DeMarco Murray (knee), who missed practice again Wednesday, has been ruled out in the Divisional Round this weekend against the Patriots, according to head coach Mike Mularkey. Murray suffered a Grade 3 tear of his MCL in his right knee two weeks ago and hasn't practiced since. Derrick Henry, who had […]

Biggest Quarterback Busts - 2017 Year in Review

Going into the 2017 season, I implored fantasy strategists in a long article to give up on waiting for quarterback, and instead pick one of the top-five guys in place of a standard third or fourth-round selection. Years of fantasy football statistics and results had pointed to the fact that only a handful of quarterbacks […]

DeMarco Murray Not Practicing Again On Tuesday

Tennessee Titans running back DeMarco Murray (knee) is not practicing Tuesday, and there is a small chance he will play against the Patriots on Saturday. Even if Murray returns after missing the Wild-Card game, it will be Derrick Henry's show in the backfield. Murray's injury may have been a blessing in disguise for the Titans, […]

Running Back Targets for DFS and Playoff Leagues: Divisional Round

The Wild Card games proved to be wild indeed, with a couple of underdogs advancing to the second round of the NFL playoffs. If you're in a one-and-done fantasy league, hopefully you didn't burn your RB picks on disappointing players like Mark Ingram or Devonta Freeman, as the limited pool of players makes each pick […]
