Titans Vs Pats: Early Musings

This Sunday the Patriots will open the season in Tennessee. Home of country music, hillbillies and the Titans. Sorry to you Tennessee fans who may roll across our blog from time to time, but your team is about to get waxed. Chris Johnson is a shell of the CJ2K image. A classic case of a guy shutting it down after getting paid. Frankly the Titans have not really had a single player that I respect since Steve McNair (R.I.P.) and Frank Wycheck. I'm not even sure if that is how you spell Wycheck? Wychek? Wyzcyzceck? Whatever... The Pats are going to roll this team worse than Vince Wilfork rolls Pillsbury croissants.

I'll admit that I have been a little bit skeptical of the Pats during this preseason. I still have my questions about the O-Line. But I just simply can not imagine a scenario where Jake Locker (the next Jay Cutler anybody?) can light up the Pats on opening day in any stadium. Brady is going to shred this team. The Titans are not going to be able to stop the two tight-end sets. Ridley will run well enough. And Brady will at least hit his short targets repeatedly, racking up first downs and touchdowns harder than that snowy execution a few years ago in New England. It has been written, and so it shall be! Pats 41 Titans 10.
