3. Rodger Saffold

Why is he important: Calais Campbell

The Tennessee Titans have always had a hard time stopping Calais Campbell, and they didn’t have to face him in their last match up with the Ravens because he was nursing a calf injury that kept him out of a good chunk of the middle of the season.

Now that is a different story, but even though the Ravens are getting back their best interior defensive lineman, the Titans are getting back their best interior offensive lineman as well.

Saffold missed that game earlier in the year and he has been playing injured all season. In fact, after leaving the game against the Houston Texans last week, there was concern that he might not play. That was until today.

It is going to be huge to have him on the field, and even though Aaron Brewer was really solid when he had to start against the Ravens, it is nice to be able to match best against best.
