Tennessee Titans’ fast start gets Lions coach’s attention

The Detroit Lions are clear favorites against Tennessee Titans in Week 8 at Ford Field, but the NFC’s best team isn’t overlooking one of the AFC’s worst teams.

Lions head coach Dan Campbell knows the key to beating the Titans is matching their energy early in the game.

“(The Titans) make people hysterical, man, and they started all their games fast and they just couldn’t finish it.” Campbell told ESPN reporter Eric Woodyard.

Tennessee They were much better in the first half of this season than they were in the second, and that’s something the Titans must overcome if they want to have any chance of beating Detroit.

“The Titans offense will try to figure out how to spread the success they have early in the game to the rest of the game.” ESPN reporter Terron Davenport writes. “Tennessee scored 44 of its 106 points this season in its first three drives. The last part of the games have been tough…If Tennessee expects to win this week, it will have to adapt effectively as the game goes on.” “

Titans struggled with making necessary changes during games, but the Lions had the same struggle. In Week 7 against the Minnesota Vikings, the Lions scored a few points, but scored 13 unanswered points in the fourth quarter and would have lost if rookie Jake Bates had not made a 44-yard field goal with 15 seconds remaining. remained in the competition.

Whichever team plays the full 60 minutes and executes its game plan, the better team will win.

Kickoff between the Titans and Lions is set for tomorrow at 12:00 pm CT.
