What gave you that impression? Titans have been a really strong team for a few years now. Usually, their weakness has been a weak passing game, so they routinely get exposed in the post season when they have to play from behind. Derrick Henry is a beast of a running back, but you can't just run the ball when you're down by 2 scores in the playoffs. If anything, it's the Packers that suck this season. They lost to the Lions for god's sake. I'm glad that we're coming to end of every talking head picking the Packers to go to the Super Bowl, at least for a while. Rodgers plays too conservatively in the playoffs and they almost always choke. Guy has only been to one Super Bowl!

that stat graph I posted from ESPN said they were 32nd in offense so I thought they'd suck but yeah that running back for the titans was hard for them to stop.

Bottom of the league in offense? How is that even possible when the Broncos exist?

I was a 90's Bills fan with Kelly and all that, but glad I don't live there. This has gotta suck:

I used to go to different stadiums for a few years in the nineties with my cousin and a couple of his friends (My cousin was a Raiders groupie but that's for another discussion

). Anyway, Buffalo was one of the cities we went to, great experience, great fans, etc. Bills lost though (this was right after their glory era).

I'm guessing it was an early season game.

Actually it was about this time and it was pretty raw. Slightly above freezing though.
