The Titans are chasing the Texans in the AFC South and they are also trying to get a Wild Card spot in the playoffs, so this game in Buffalo is HUGE for them.  The Bills have lost four games in a row, but they showed some fight against the Jets in New Jersey yesterday before falling a tad short in the end.  Here is a look at the matchups in this game: When the Titans have the ball:  The Titans might feed the rock to Chris Johnson in this game as the Bills are giving up 123.8 yards rushing per game and 4.5 yards per carry so far this year.  If Johnson starts to really roll in this game, Matt Hasselbeck is also going to have a great game.  The Bills only have 16 sacks this year and the Titans’ QBs have only been sacked 16 times this year, so Hasselbeck should have a lot of time to throw the ball.  The Bills are having issues at corner right now, so look for Hasselbeck to be throwing the ball down the field to WRs Nate Washington and Damian Williams. When the Bills have the ball:...

Matt Hasselbeck’s Disgusting Movember Mustache & Leather Hat Combo

It’s the last day of Movember so naturally it’s time to check in with those men who’ve been growing a ‘stache to raise awareness for men’s health. Matt Hasselbeck was kind enough – via Twitter - to share his creepy hat/’stache combo. And we’d be doing you guys a giant disservice to end this post without showing what Jim Cantore looked...

Who’s expecting an end-of-season Chris Johnson surge?

Over the past three weeks, Tennessee's Chris Johnson has delivered his two best games of the season, as well as his worst. Johnson rushed for 130 yards and one touchdown at Carolina in Week 10, and he gained 190 yards on 23 carries versus Tampa Bay in Week 13 (somehow not scoring). Sandwiched in between those efforts was a 12-carry, 13-yard dud at Atlanta. The Panthers and Bucs...

Is Helu worth the risk?

Ramon: Alex Smith or Matt Hasselbeck?? Thank you JB Not sure if this speaks volume to the improvement in Smith, or as testimony to the downfall of Hasselbeck. Smith's supervision of the offense (mainly, his reduction in turnovers) has been integral to the turnaround of San Francisco this season. Unfortunately, that veracity holds little weight in the statistical-driven realm...

So, as I look over the rosters of my teams, I thought I would compile the list of the 10 most disappointing NFL fantasy football players for the 2011 season. Topping the list has to be Tennessee...

Steve Johnson fined $10,000 for his Plaxico shooting celebration

Steve Johnson got off easy for mocking Plaxico Burress by pretending to shoot himself in the leg as a touchdown celebration. The Buffalo Bills wide receiver will have to pay only a $10,000 fine for the action from Sunday's game. The Associated Press reported the news. The NFL has yet to publicly announce the fine. Johnson should consider himself lucky that he got off so easy...

Titans Insider: Tennessee finds running game

Is the running game for the Tennessee Titans finally fixed? That question was posed to Coach Mike Munchak on Monday, a day after Chris Johnson rolled to a season-high 190 yards on the ground in a 23-17 victory over the New Orleans Saints. "Two of the last three weeks we have run the ball pretty well. The one in between wasn't what we would like in Atlanta (12 carries 13...

Week 13 NFL Game Picks

Packers over Giants (+7) The Pack have looked great and the Giants have looked pedestrian. But this one will be a close one because the Giants have a way of rallying against impossible odds during the Coughlin era. Titans (+2.5) over Bills If Chris Johnson is truly back the Titans could make the Texans sweat down the stretch. Broncos(+2) over...
