Which Titans and Bucs have a chance to truly impact this game the most?

A week ago, I was writing about how the Tennessee Titans were just a loss away from considering a fire sale on some bigger names.

Now they are just a win away from being .500 in a pretty lack luster AFC South. So, you can imagine why now is a perfect time for the Titans to finally have their first back to back winning games this season.

To do that, they need to take on the formidable pass rush and passing attack of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

At 2-4, the Buccaneers are in the same desperate position that the Titans and Chargers were last week so you can expect them to throw everything they have at Tennessee in this matchup.

With a bye week of planning and focusing specifically on the Tennessee Titans, what will the Bucs pull out of the playbook and how will the Titans counter it?
