Titans have done a good job of rebounding in game 2

This is the third year in a row that the Titans lost game 1, but the previous two times they regrouped and won game 2 (both against playoff teams on the road).

It looks like Mariota will play, as well as the first action of the year for first round pick Evans. I doubt Lewan will be cleared this soon, so the oline will need to protect Mariota as well as they did in Miami (no sacks allowed, and very few pressures).

It will be interesting to see how Vrabel's inside knowledge of the Texans and their players will help the Titans this game. It's going to be a tough game, but the Texans are only a 1 to 2 point favorite. I do hope the Titans have a good crowd for this home opener.

What an impressive and gritty win! Missing three tackles and Mariota, the team only gave up one sack while sacking Watson four times. The finally ran a fake punt (for a TD) and even ran the Wildcat early.

Even when they fell behind 17-14, they didn't give up and got the last six points for the win.

Hopefully this will hush the Titans critics for a while.
