Carucci has Skins #3 overall again
 

Titans and Giants ahead of us. We knew the NFC East is the toughest division but all four teams at the top? Should the Cowboys really be at #8? I think the Falcons and Saints should both be ahead of them.

Any suprises for anyone else?

I love the note for the Steelers:

This team's biggest vulnerability -- pass protection -- showed itself once again vs. the Giants. And it doesn't appear as if it's going to be rectified any time soon.

San Antonio Moss will have a good night.

I was a Titans doubter prior to Monday night, but now I'm a believer. A 4 game division lead halfway through the season? That's crazy.

After Joe left, Jeff Fisher was.....HIGH on my wish list

Mine too. He's a very underrated coach. There is truth in your Sig.

It would have been funny to go from Gibbs (NASCAR owner) to a guy who looks like he belongs in NASCAR.

fischer's been a great coach for a long time... imagine if they had a gm that wasn't retarded bad :/. they'd have, like, a real QB and a WR that would actually get on the field for another team.

SI has the skins 5th.i'm wondering why dallas is in their top 10?

Re: Carucci has Skins #3 overall again
 

Jeff Fisher may be the best coach in the league. At least right behind Jim Zorn.

The media's hard-on for them hasn't faded just yet.

Re: Carucci has Skins #3 overall again
 

If the Giants can put a heavy dose of whoop-ass on the Cowgirls maybe they won't look so attractive to the media and it will help cure their "problem"?

Class act don't blame you. Like Fisher alot. I think Jeff F. wants to take his own team that he's built to win the Bowl. I'm happy with Zorn and crew, very happy. Looking forward to Aprils draft to see what they are up to then.

Yeah Matty, and they aren't done padding that lead. Good solid team.

I don't think Zorn has any probs slapping the media along side the head when they need it after the last episode. We might see that HO stay. I also think the media is going to watch it's Ps and Qs talking to Zorn. He's not going to roll over and let em sucker punch him with sucker questions either.

Sorry, I'm still not offensively sold on the Titans. Also, the Colts are now a middle of the road team...beating them is great but by no means a coveted merit badge.

Fisher is awesome. But the guy I was really pushing for was Jim Schwartz, who's doing a great job as the D-Coordinator for the Titans

Re: Carucci has Skins #3 overall again
 

I foung the Titans to be quite impressive in the two games of theirs that I have seen.

However, I'm waiting to see what happens when the Titans really fall behind a team with a good run defense. I know they trailed the Colts by 8, but that is not much of a margin, and the Colts put them back in the game by going for it on fourth down on the 50 yard line. The Colts are also poor at stopping the run.

What I mean is a 14-0, 17-0, something like that deficit. I am not sold that the Titans passing game can click consistently enough to come back. I'll change my mind when I see it, but I'll have to see it.

17 - 33 opponents combined record.

Re: Carucci has Skins #3 overall again
 

Titans are good, not great due to their lack of even an above average QB. They have played a weak schedule, in an off year for their division, and IMO when the smoke clears, I'd guess they're around a 12-4 11-5 football team who gets a bye and loses in their first play-off game.
