Tennessee Titans playoff watch: Week 14
By Will Lomas
Who Tennessee Titans fans should be concerned about most.
Another week and another win for the Tennessee Titans.
I know it was ugly, but how many years did we go without seeing two, three, four wins in a season much less in a row. The Titans have had their share of losses, and I am just excited to see wins.
The easiest path to the playoff is just to win. The Titans are in control of their destiny right now. As the AFC South leaders, Tennessee holds the very important tie-breaker with the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Titans fans should be excited for every win they get from here on out. The only thing as good as a Titans win is a Jacksonville Jaguars loss.
Outside of that, here are the teams to watch in a narrowing field of playoff contenders.
Baltimore Ravens: -1.5 GB
-The Ravens are pesky right now. They seem to have found away to score points after a 44 point outing against the Detroit Lions this weekend.
Baltimore could very easily win 3 of their next 4 (@Steelers, @Browns, Colts, Bengals) which would put them at 10 wins. A 10-win team usually makes the playoffs and it may very well be the Titans/Jaguars and Ravens as the AFC WC teams.
L.A. Chargers: -2 GB
-The Chargers are coming in strong, but they are going to stop playing tomato cans soon. Their divisional games could prove tricky and one loss means they would top out at 9-7. Can they run the table?
Oakland Raiders: -1.5 GB
-This is the team that Titans fans should be rooting against as hard as Baltimore. While they haven’t been pretty (Titans fans are familiar with the feeling) the Raiders have won 3 of their last 4 games with their only loss being to New England in Mexico City.
The Raiders have their flaws, but they also have the type of players that could win football games in December. The schedule is a nightmare though, and it may be too little too late for the future Vegas team.
Oakland needs to get 3 wins from this: @KC, vs Dallas, @Philly (yikes), @Chargers. If they could split that record it would be impressive, but it would still leave them at 8-8 which shouldn’t be good enough for a playoff spot.

Why aren’t the Buffalo Bills on here?
-Yes the Bills have an important tie-breaker with the Kansas City Chiefs and they could end up in the playoffs. However, Tyrod Taylor can’t stay healthy on a team that doesn’t want him and I just don’t know how badly the Bills want to win.
Today in fact they moved 2016 1st round draft pick Shaq Lawson to IR as well as Jordan Matthews. I know they couldn’t help it, but man it is really tough to see them thriving down the stretch.
