2008 Tennessee Titans

[tvandenberg]

Do this years Panthers remind anyone else of the 2008 Titans? They went 13-3, locked home field advantage, and then tanked in the playoffs (hopefully the Panthers don't follow that part).

Facts:

Two solid backs - Chris Johnson (some might say) is perhaps better than Williams, but Williams + Stewart > Johnson + White.

QB who manages the game - Moore has a lot of the same qualities of Collins (besides age)

Amazing Defense - Enough said. The 2008 Titans allowed 14.6 ppg.

Solid Field Goal kicking - Baronas has more distance than Kasay, but both are just as reliable.

Unknown WRs - Yes we have Smith, but other than that it's a bunch of mediocre WRs (Gage is the best talent they had in my opinion)

Reliable TEs - They had a bit more talent here in the passing game than us, but Barnidge and Rosario both looked good last night.

Can we go 13-3? That might be a stretch -- but no one thought the Titans would either (especially after the 'loss' of Vince Young).

Kerry Collins was prob better then Moore at this point. Just Saying....

I don't disagree with this, but they have very similar styles.

But, the formula can't have holes (read: INTs). And this year our formula looks to be working out better than years past.

Nice, well done.

Either way, I think most of us fans agree that we feel much better now than we did a few months ago.
