My biggest concerns about the Tennessee Titans potential playoff push.

It is hard to look at a team critically in the midst of a 6-1 run, but with the Tennessee Titans loss on Sunday I think it is time to address some clear issues this team has.

There are several things to be optimistic about and I’m actually working on a follow up post on this for later today or tomorrow. However, the fact is that this team clearly has flaws and it is up to the coaching staff to figure out how to fix them or how to avoid them.

With an 8-6 record the Titans are really the only team currently outside of the AFC playoff picture with a shot at moving into a wildcard spot or winning the division outright.

Unfortunately, we all know that they lost the ability to control their destiny on Sunday with the loss vs the Houston Texans.

What caused that loss and what do we need to be wary of going forward? These are my five biggest reasons for concern.
