The Student of the GameGoing Beyond the Stats

Injuries, Holdouts, and coaching staffs on the hotseat to win this year . . . and that was just the PRE-SEASON. The SoTG and Chris take you through the wild ride that is the AFC South of 2011.

Will the Indianapolis Colts maintain their superiority? Will the Tennessee Titans be more than their 2000 yard rusher? Will the Jacksonville Jaguars regain poise to return to relevance in the playoff hunt? Or is this the Houston Texans year to make waves into the Post Season?

The SoTG, Weasel and Chris discuss

For those who lived through the teaser of pre-game performances and hype leading up to the opening match-up of the 2009 NFL Regular Season between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Tennessee Titans, this seemed to be a good example of an opener that earned the commotion it got as the Tailors of the Terrible Towel tip-toed past the terrifying Titans, 13-10 in OT on a FG by K Jeff Reed.

A few years removed from deep playoff appearances previously, the Titans were only a 2 games away from the Super Bowl last in 2008. But as always the Colts threaten their defense of the division title. Will either of these teams prevail, or is their a dark horse looming in the form of Houston and Jacksonville? The SoTG and Weasel give you the goods.
