Tennessee Titans (0-0): Plays on Monday Night Football vs. Denver Broncos
It was predicted long ago by Madden 21 that Jadeveon Clowney would join the Tennessee Titans and once training camps were done, that finally happened. While Clowney’s star lost some of its shine, he’s still a very talented pass rusher who joins an already nasty defense — and he knows the head coach very well as Clowney and Mike Vrabel were together with the Houston Texans.
Tennessee’s defense was so good in 2019 that they took a Ryan Tannehill-led offense to the AFC Championship Game. And while Tannehill was given a huge contract in the offseason, he completed less than 10 passes in each of their playoff wins, which is further proof that their running game, led by Derrick Henry, and the stifling defense is what took them that far last season.
In 2020, they start things out with a trip to Mile High Stadium to play the Denver Broncos in the late Monday Night Football game. Denver has a much-improved offense but their defense lost Von Miller, which will give the Titans offense a lot more time to get their passes off.
This season, the Titans remain a strong contender and are favorites in the AFC South. Adding Clowney only solidifies that.
