The Tennessee Titans ended their 2009-2010 season as one of the hottest teams in the league. After falling to an 0-6 start to begin the season, the Titans won eight out of their last ten, coming up just short of a wild card playoff birth.
A great deal of success must go to Chris Johnson, who capped off an unpredictable season in the NFL, being the first running back to hit the 2000+ rushing yard mark since Jamal Lewis of the Baltimore Ravens.
Johnson put on a great show for Titans fans with his world class speed, being considered in discussions of racing against the best in the world.
He can do it all. Whether catching a pass out of the backfield, or doing what he does he best, making defenders miss, Johnson looks to have one great future in the NFL.
With that in mind, a few [...]

As today dons a new year and more importantly a new decade in Seahawks history. However they still have one little bit of 2009 left attached to them, that being their final regular season game this Sunday at home against the Tennessee Titans and C2k Chris Johnson.
After the Tennessee game this Sunday the Seahawks will go into full on off season mode, starting with the hiring of the teams new president/GM replacing Tim Ruskell who resigned in December.
Once that new GM is in place they will have a lot of work ahead of them to add talented to this depleted roster. The Seahawks new GM will have to attack some of those needs through free agency as [...]

With the Raiders coming off of a big win at Pittsburgh, it is easy to be confident. While the Redskins were in position to give New Orleans their first loss, they blew the lead after missed field goals and lost in overtime. These teams were both in a come from behind win last week. The Raiders rallied 3 times to beat the Steelers while the Saints came back from 2 possesion deficits to top Washington. DeAngelo Hall will play his former team in front of the fans who once enjoyed watching him wear the silver and black.
Raiders vs. Losing Streak: Every time the Raiders have won this year they have followed it with a blowout loss. After they won at Kansas City they were shattered by the Broncos. After they beat the Eagles they were destroyed by [...]

The Colts had this game right from the start. It was just an easy game. Although the Titans were on a five-game winning-streak, and looking dangerous, the Colts were on a eleven-game winning-streak, and counting, as they move on to 12-0.
Joseph Addai played well, scoring the team’s first touchdown, and having another one, along with 79 yards.
Peyton Manning threw for 270 yards along with a touchdown. Vince Young played well, and was looking to for a win after playing his best game of his career just last week against the Arizona Cardinals. He passed for 241 yards with two touchdowns and one pick.
The Titans had a lot of chances to win this game. They had wasted opportunities in the red zone, and the score should have been much tighter. Nate Washington had a chance to put up a [...]

The Cardinals face a tough matchup on Sunday afternoon versus a talented Titans team on a hot streak. Ever since team owner Bud Adams demanded that Vince Young get another shot as the No.1 QB, Tennessee has responded with four straight wins after beginning the season win-less with Kerry Collins under center.
VY is clearly rejuvenated, and playing with the more confidence than ever in his young career. The team has changed its offensive approach, sprinkling in the college option play with positive results. The interesting and maybe unintended effect of running the option is that not only does it allow Young to pick up first downs with his legs when the time is right, it also gives Chris Johnson even more chances out in open space, where he thrives.

For An Evening with the Titans Part 1: click here.
When we left the Titans Bud Adams delivered a rousing speech to start their party.
Collins slouches over even more, “Vince this. Vince that. Where was the defense when I was playing?” He walks over to refill his coke.
LenDale White, lost in his own thoughts, sits by the bar while trying to muster up the courage to show “him” his shirt. White is not used to this insecurity and it is wearing on him. Johnson walks over to the bar while White walks away.
“How ‘bout a Captain and Coke?” Asks Johnson while putting his leg up Captain [...]

The below events did not happen anywhere other then the author's head (that he knows of).
Sunday, Nov. 15, 2009, not long after the Titans defeated the Bills by a 41-17 score in Nashville:
Bud Adams is feeling a level of friskiness that belies his age of 86, but not the perfect mix of whiskey and Viagra he is currently sailing on. “Yee haw!” he says. “We are back on the victory train. Nothing can stop the Adams’ Family now!”
“Shirley,” he says (Shirley is Adams' assistant), “get me Fisher on the phone, would ya, sweetie?”
Adams is dancing around his owner’s suite. “I can’t believe it took that stiff Goodell so long to get out of my box. I had the birdies in [...]

The Bills continued their losing ways on Sunday, compliments of the Tennessee Titans. As predicted Titans owner Bud Adams was left pondering after flicking of the Bills.
The anticipated return of Trent Edwards was a complete let down. Edwards returned as the starting QB and actually looked worse than before his concussion and time off. Edwards went 18-of-28, one TD and one interception. During the game, I think once the Bills were tired of Edwards not doing anything, [...]

The Tennessee Titans will head into the locker room at halftime down 45 to nothing! Possibly the most embarrassing moment in franchise history, and not only was it embarrassing to the Titans, the team, donning the Oilers throwbacks disgraced former alumni and fans by the lackluster performance of the young injury plagued Titans squad. Tom Brady, was thought to be on a downslide, apparently he was saving his comeback performance for a snow-covered, postseason feeling game in Foxborough. Going 17 of 20 for 252 yards and 5 touchdowns would be a career day for any quarterback, (unless your name is Peyton Manning) but these were Brady’s stats for his record setting 2nd quarter! What has happened to the 13 and 3 team of last year? Close losses, key mistakes and injuries are the [...]
