announcers and more The third preseason game is
the dress rehearsal, right? Well apparently not so fast my friend. Mike Vrabel
said that wouldn¡¯t necessarily be the case for the Titans in Pittsburgh. Add
this to the long list of things that Vrabel is doing unconventionally. There
will be a lot of guys we won¡¯t see in this game. That list includes (but is not
limited too) Derrick Morgan, Malcolm Butler, Brian Orakpo, Rashaan Evans, Jack
Conklin and Rishard Matthews. It would be hard to make it a dress rehearsal
anyway with all of those guys not playing.We can still get a decent look at the
first team offense with most of the injuries being on the defensive side of the
ball. Taywan Taylor had a great game last week. I want to see him get more run
with Marcus Mariota in this one- last week his only snap with Mariota was the
TD.Here is everything you need to know about watching the game:TV ScheduleDate:

and earning a second straight playoff berth will require finishing this season
with a winning flourish.The Titans (5-6) blew hopes of the franchise's first AFC
South title in a decade by losing two straight inside the division to cap a
stretch of five losses in seven games. Linebacker Wesley Woodyard says the
Titans' backs are against the wall now."We got a chance to change and make up
for what we've been doing these past couple weeks and not worried about what we
should've done," Woodyard said.Coming off a 34-17 loss in Houston on Monday
night, the Titans will try to make their stand at home playing four of their
final five games starting Sunday with the New York Jets (3-8). The Titans have
won 13 of their last 16 at Nissan Stadium, and linebacker Brian Orakpo says they
understand the challenge they face.A year ago, the Titans went 2-3 in December
to miss out on the AFC South title but grab the second wild-card spot. Orakpo
says they need to be realistic, ignore all the scenarios and see the Jets as the
first step toward winning out."We have to give ourselves a chance, 10-6 looks
pretty good to me," Orakpo said. "And we have to make sure that's a reality and
not just some talk."Losers of five straight, the Jets are hoping they can get
Sam Darnold back at quarterback after missing the last two games with an injured
foot, including a 27-13 loss to the Patriots last week. The rookie remains
optimistic about the Jets' goals for a season in which coach Todd Bowles' future
is on the clock."Just finishing strong, sticking together, doing what we can to
win these last five, and who
knows

know about the Jets and Titans:MARIOTA'S PASSINGTitans quarterback Marcus
Mariota is coming off the second-best single-game passing performance in NFL
history, completing 95.7 percent of passes in Houston. He's on pace for the
single-best performance in franchise history with a 70.3 completion percentage
this season, a mark currently set by Cody Carlson at 65.6 percent in 1992 with
the then-Houston Oilers. Mariota also ranks fourth in the NFL this season for
completion percentage.STRUGGLING OFFENSESWhether it has been Darnold or veteran
Josh McCown under center, the Jets' offense has struggled lately to score. Since
beating Indianapolis 42-24 on Oct. 14, New York has just 56 points �a five-game
span during which the Jets have failed to score more than 17 against any
opponent. They rank 26th in the league, averaging 20.1 points a game.That's
still better than the Titans, who went eight quarters without a touchdown
earlier this season, including being shut out by Baltimore in October. They're
averaging 17.7 points a game, 29th in the league.HOMECOMINGJets linebacker Avery
Williamson will be in familiar territory when he plays in Tennessee. The former
Milan High School star spent his first four NFL seasons with the Titans before
signing a three-year, $22.5 million deal with New York. Williamson leads the
Jets with 117 overall tackles and is tied for second on the team with three
sacks."It's definitely going to be fun going against my old teammates,"
Williamson said. "I haven't seen them since January, so it'll definitely be
cool, especially going on the opposite sideline. It'll be interesting."TOUGH
TAKEAWAYSThe Jets have 15 takeaways this
season
Youth
Dennis Kelly Jersey , which ranks them a respectable 15th in the NFL in
that category. But turnovers have been tough to come by lately for New York
�and it's on the verge of making history. The defense has not caused a turnover
in five consecutive games, tying a league record for futility. One more game and
the Jets will hold that dubious distinction all by themselves."We're obviously
out there talking about turnovers, turnovers, turnovers, and getting it done,
but we're not getting it done," safety Jamal Adams said. "We're just talking
about it. It's very frustrating as a defense when we're not getting turnovers
and helping our offense get in better situations. It's something we have to get
done."The Titans have only nine takeaways this season and none in the past three
games.LONG RANGERJets kicker Jason Myers has been one of the team's biggest
surprises this season, ranking second in the NFL with 23 field goals. He has
been consistently good on long-distance attempts, making a league-record five
kicks of 55 yards or more. He beat out several kickers early this season after
being claimed off waivers from Seattle during training camp.AP Pro Football
