NASHVILLE, Tenn. – I’m getting a lot of questions about the Titans in fantasy football.
Predicting stats is a difficult game, but I do think I can help you slot players and manage expectations.
Let’s look at how key Titans rank on ESPN’s list and what they are projected to do. I will give you a sense if I think they are on target or if you should expect better or worse.

On a third-and-31 he got open up the middle, caught perfectly placed pass from Marcus Mariota, bounced off defenders and chugged for extra yards.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Three reasons not to worry about the Titans looking so bad in their preseason Week 3 loss to the Bears:

Thursday night in Kansas City is likely to feature very few starters and some cameos and may lend itself to more of a specific review of the most important people.
As for the Titans’ 19-7 loss to the Bears:
2 WR Mekale McKay – Did not play (hamstring).
4 K Ryan Succop – Missed a 40-yard field goal wide left. Got two touchbacks out of three kickoffs.

A few quick observations:
1) Rookie cornerback Adoree' Jackson started and moved to the slot in the nickel with LeShaun Sims taking over outside. A few times Jackson was close and gave up a catch anyway. But he also gave Kendall Wright way too much room on one play and committed an end-zone pass interference penalty. He pressed a bit as the punt returner as well. Overall, it was not a very good afternoon, and one that leaves plenty of room for Sims to stay in the No. 2 corner spot on defense.

PK: He may not play at all. If he does, I'd set the over under right at 3.5. And I might take the under.
Read More...NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Derrick Henry has been pretty great to this point in the preseason.
At practices as he’s been the No. 1 back during DeMarco Murray’s recovery from a hamstring issue, Henry looks like every bit a load-carrying, No. 1 guy. He’s got a team-high 24 carries in two preseason games for 65 yards with two touchdowns. The yards-per-carry is a low 2.7, but Carolina’s front is awfully good and there were some dead ends Saturday afternoon that were hardly the back’s issue alone. I doubt he'll have that much trouble with a lateral move in the backfield against anyone else.
