Key Contributors Toward Titans Playoff Chances
If the Titans are going to make a push for the playoffs this year, they'll need second-year quarterback Will Levis to take a big step forward. Levis showed flashes of promise early on but was plagued by inconsistent play as the season progressed. This also means head coach Brian Callahan will need to prove his worth and create an offensive environment in which Levis can thrive. The additions of Calvin Ridley and Tony Pollard to join DeAndre Hopkins and Tyjae Spears is a solid start to surround the young QB with weapons.
Once a strength of this team, the offensive line has slowly been falling apart through the past few seasons. The Titans will need to build this unit back up as well with the help of offensive line coach Bill Callahan, head coach Callahan's father.
Defensively, L'Jarius Sneed was a huge get in free agency as the secondary has struggled mightily for several seasons. Chidobe Awuzie will provide another strong starting option to help improve their passing defense.
Where Can I Bet on the Tennessee Titans to Make the Playoffs?
It's easy to bet on the Titans to make the playoffs at several Tennessee betting apps such as BetMGM, Caesars, FanDuel, and ZenSports. With the start of the 2024 NFL season still months away, some sportsbooks have yet to post playoff markets, so you may have to check out multiple betting sites to be able to wager on the Titans chances of making the playoffs.
Looking Ahead: Titans Playoff Picture
With the firing of Mike Vrabel and the losses of Ryan Tannehill and Derrick Henry, the Titans front office has officially signaled they are resetting the direction of the franchise. Betting markets and oddsmakers see this as a rebuilding year as the Titans have some of the longest playoff odds across the entire NFL.
Do the Titans Have a Chance to Make the Playoffs?
Yes, the Titans have a chance to make the playoffs as the season has yet to begin. While the Titans' playoff odds don't paint a positive picture, we see surprise performances every year in the NFL. If Will Levis can take a step forward and HC Callahan can get the offense clicking, Tennessee could sneak in as a wild-card team.
Are the Titans Out of Playoffs?
No, the Titans aren't out of the playoffs being that the season hasn't even started. We typically won't see teams officially eliminated from playoff contention until much later in the year.
Tennessee Titans Postseason Outlook and Predictions
As things stand today, it is difficult to view the Tennessee Titans as a true playoff contender. There has been too much turnover and despite the offseason additions, there are many questions surrounding the roster. The offensive line is a work in progress and the defense still has to prove it can gel together as a cohesive unit. While Brian Callahan had success as an offensive coordinator in Cincinnati, it still remains to be seen if he'll have success as a head coach.
The 2024 season is likely going to be a rebuilding and reevaluating type of year for the Titans as they'll see if Will Levis can be the future at quarterback and what the new coaching staff is capable of.
