22. Tennessee Titans (2-3)

Recap: Coming off an impressive win over the Atlanta Falcons in Week 4, there was no telling which version of the Tennessee Titans would show up in Week 5 against the Buffalo Bills. Well, we got our answer, as the Titans’ offensive line was dreadful in pass protection and the offense as a whole was only able to muster up seven points in a losing effort.

Pros: The Titans’ defense remains one of the best in the NFL this season. Without it, I’m not sure where the Titans would be with their inconsistencies on offense.

Cons: Even with Taylor Lewan back, the Titans O-line was horrific against the Bills. Marcus Mariota had no time to throw the football, and it’s impossible to get a consistent passing game going under those conditions. Cairo Santos missed three kicks and had another one blocked. The Titans need to find a new kicker for next week.

Outlook: As badly as the Titans have played, they’re still in the hunt in the AFC South, although that won’t last long if they continue to struggle. Tennessee will hit the road to take on the Denver Broncos in Week 6.
