LATEST STORIES FROM TITANS LOCKER
The Tennessee Titans got solid QB play in 2011
The Titans are likely going to open up the competition at QB for the 2012 season but that doesn’t change the fact that Matt Hasselbeck turned in a very solid season for the Titans in 2011. Hasselbeck led the Titans to a 9-7 record as they just missed the playoffs. He played in 16 games (all starts) for the Titans last year and he completed 319 of 518 passes (61.6%) for...

Jake Locker could get his first big shot for the Tennessee Titans this weekend
The Titans are playing the Indianapolis Colts on the road this weekend in a “must win” game. Matt Hasselbeck injured his calf last weekend and rookie Jake Locker played most of the game. This is a perfect spot to give Jake Locker his first NFL start, as long as Hasselbeck isn’t healthy enough to go. Locker has played in 4 games for the Titans so far this year and he has...

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.

Mike Munchak has got the Tennessee Titans playing tough in 2011
51-year old head coach Mike Munchak is doing a solid job as the Titans are playing better than most “experts” thought they would. He has also set up a perfect mentoring system at QB as Matt Hasselbeck is showing rookie QB Jake Locker the right way to do things. I am a tad surprised that Munchak has not got his offensive line blocking well in the running game, as he...

The Tennessee Titans need to kickstart the running game
The Tennessee Titans are averaging a pitiful 66.6 rushing yards per game so far this year and 3.0 yards per carry.
