team. 35. . 1-0. . Tennessee Titans. 7

The Tennessee Titans are good folks.  They proved that with their win at the Cleveland Browns 43-13.  It was quite the effort by all involved on both sides of the ball.

From Titans running back Derrick Henry’s 75-yard touchdown catch and run, to Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota’s 3 touchdowns and the Titans 3 interceptions of Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield, it was a day to remember in the 30-point romp.

The Titans defense also sacked Mayfield 5 times on Sunday.  If there was maybe one spot to fault, it would be the Titans offensive line for allowing Mariota to be sacked himself 4 times.

However in the grand scheme of things, it shouldn’t be a huge deal right now.  The Titans are looking more like the ones to contend with rather than the Browns.

Now week 2 is upon them as they head home to face the Indianapolis Colts.  The Colts had a respectable showing in their loss to the Chargers.  Maybe they can make more of a game of it with the Titans than the Browns did.
