The Titans are a decent team who has won 4 games in a row.
They score more points then we do. They are better at forcing turnovers and commit fewer penalties. With Haden out, the pass defense could become an issue. Dick LeBeau, the Titan's defensive coordinator knows our offense as well as anyone. Since that 57-14 loss in Houston on Oct. 1 , the Titans have been among the NFL's stingiest defenses ranking third giving up 253 yards per game behind only Carolina (246) and Minnesota (246.3). The Titans also are fifth against the run (83.7 yards) and the pass (169.3 yards).
On the plus side, we have more talent and are at home.
I do not like our coaching early in games. While we are 7-2, we beat the Colts by 3 ( and had to come back ) the Lions by 5, and the Browns by 3 points ( thanks to a blocked punt score for a TD ). While it's clear the Steelers are a top NFL team, they should not have the problems they do vs lesser teams. If they played a better opponent they likely lose.
Bell's lack of explosiveness, AB's suddenly dropping passes and being outplayed by Ju-Ju, and the tackling on defense are issues, and vs. a good team on a short week, I'm calling a loss.
