4. Tennessee Titans

In a way, the Titans seemed to be a little offended over how easy it was for Eagles fans to take over their stadium, which is why they must have felt amazing to see them get the last laugh by putting together an impressive win in overtime. Leading up to Sunday’s game, Tennessee was considered one of the most difficult teams to figure out since they were barely squeezing by games in which they won, but Week 4 showed they are in fact the real deal.

Give Marcus Mariota all of the credit in the world for coming through for his teammates when needed the most since it was uncertain if he would even play last weekend while continuing to deal with that unfortunate elbow injury. But after the Titans quarterback ended up with three total touchdowns against the defending Super Bowl champions, nobody seems to be questioning Mariota’s abilities anymore.

Now, the question becomes whether Tennessee can continue to play at this high level to remain a top contender in the AFC. If that does end up happening, the Titans will have a great chance of earning a trip to the playoffs for a second year in a row, with hopefully better results this time around.
