9. Titans shock Saints

One can only imagine how frustrated the Tennessee Titans after missing out on a golden opportunity to officially move into first place in the AFC South, but at least their playoff hopes are still alive.

Whether it happens to be winning the division or simply earning a Wild Card spot, the Titans will punch a ticket to the playoffs any way possible at this point.

Before coming up short to Houston, Tennessee was viewed as one of the hottest teams in the NFL with six wins over their last seven games to prove they were one of the hottest teams in the NFL at the time.

This could still very well turn out to be the case, but the Titans will first need to take care of the New Orleans Saints, who are still battling for a potential first-round bye in the NFC.

Defeating Drew Brees and the Saints in general is never an easy task, but Tennessee is the more desperate team at the moment.

If Ryan Tannehill can find a way to continue playing at a high level like has been since taking over the starting role at quarterback, the Titans could be in position to pull off the unthinkable in defeating the Saints.
