In that scenario, as long as Indy loses either 2 more games or one more division game (@Jax).  A 3-way tie with Indy and Pittsburgh is bad for the Titans.

 

Where it gets compelling for both Buffalo and the Steelers is the schedules and how that shakes out: 

 

The 9-3 Bills play Baltimore, @ Pittsburgh, @ New England, and the Jets.  

The 7-5 Steelers play @ Arizona, Buffalo, @ the Jets, and @ Baltimore.

If the Titans sweep the Texans and go 10-6 they're almost definitely in.  It would just take one Colts loss.  Or the Texans win the other two games.  Or the Steelers scenarios if the Titans loss is to New Orleans.  Or the Steelers lose at least twice.

Then that means you wouldn’t pick the titans to win a playoff game either because they’d be at HOU for the WC lol

I did think about that. It would suck to have to play them 3 times in 3 weeks. I do love having our destiny in our own hands. And we're getting hot at just the right time.

I think Sunday is a must win for us to even have a chance. I don't like our chances against HOU or NO. I think we are in a really bad spot for the playoff picture due to our schedule. Our team will certainly have to earn a spot in the playoffs.

The Titans have 2 paths to the playoffs:

 

1. Win 3 of the last 4

2. Beat Houston twice

 

I'm not sure which one is more likely. Neither will be easy. Despite all the positives of the past 2 weeks I think the playoffs are still a long shot. The Titans have maybe the toughest remaining schedule of any team in the league. It's hard to climb back from 2-4.

I have us winning 3 of the last four, Oakland, Texans in Nashville and the Saints. They have to keep playing inspired football.

We had to do that with the Jags, but not in that same time frame. That's when Fisher famously said we consider Altell stadium our home away from home.

Getting awarded the AFC Championship Trophy on Jacksonville's home field was a highlight of Titans fandom.

The Titans are better than Oakland, but it's always a bitch to play on the west coast and the Raiders are a much better team at home than on the road. Unfortunately the Saints will likely still be fighting for home field. They could certainly win 3 of the next 4, but I wouldn't put money on it.

Indefensible really.  Dumbest thing they have done in a long time.


I expected four games due to the circumstances and the business side of the situation.  6 games was gross negligence if the staff knew they had a playoff worthy roster

I think 1 is probably easier. But like someone else said you have to take it one game at a time and OAK will be looking to bounce back after getting destroyed the last few games.
