There are three reasons for optimism for the Tennessee Titans in their Week 4 game with the Atlanta Falcons.

It’s hard to be optimistic if you’re a Tennessee Titans fans, but there are some bright spots to this Week 4 matchup with the Atlanta Falcons.

The Titans offense got steamrolled in Week 3 by a talented Jacksonville Jaguars squad whose pass-rush was exceptional and dominated the troubled Titans offensive line.

Week 4 presents a matchup with a very different kind of team. While the Falcons are a better offensive group than the Jags, their defense doesn’t present nearly the same challenges that Jacksonville’s does.

The Titans need to see better play from their offensive line, and the offense has to do better than the seven points it scored in Week 3. Such a low-scoring output isn’t going to be good enough against any team, let alone a high-powered offense like the Falcons have.

Tennessee has its work cut out for it in Week 4, but there are reasons to be optimistic going into Week 4. Let’s take a deeper dive and find out why we shouldn’t be mailing this one in just yet.
