Ah man, this is a beautiful bye week for the Titans. I wish it were a bye month but it is what it is. The Titans have been beaten, bruised, and bloodied but they have managed to somehow scratch and claw their way to an 8-4 record and are fully in the mix, totally looking like a lock as a playoff team. Right now, the Titans are the #3 seed in the AFC Playoff Standings.

As I've said in other posts, the Titans are ridiculously injured, literally breaking records in terms of players used. The timing of this bye week is just so great for many obvious reasons. For one week, players don't have to get hit, they can sit and chill and heal. Some injured players can return, ideally. Nothing bad should happen to any team during a bye.

It will be a relief for one week watching other teams battle it out, knowing the Titans roster is just chillin on a couch or something.

This Week 13 will be a good week to really watch the games, and get to know the league just a bit better before the Titans play their huge final five games.

Here are the teams ALL Titans fans should be ROOTING FOR this Sunday and Monday:

TEXANS need to beat the Colts!

Ugh, despite the Texans beating the Titans just a few weeks ago, it would be great if they could beat the Colts today so the Titans could further lock up the AFC South!

STEELERS need to beat the Ravens!

I need Big Ben and his statue self, to just go off for a cool 450 yards and 5 TD's today and beat Lamar Jackson and the #1 AFC Seed Baltimore Ravens to help the Titans stay within reach of that #1 Seed.

BRONCOS need to beat the Chiefs!

Teddy Bridgewater needs to be Pat Mahomes, and Pat Mahomes needs to be Teddy Bridgewater. A Chiefs loss would just be very helpful to keep the Chiefs off the Titans tail in the AFC seeding. GO BRONCOS!!!!!

CHARGERS need to beat the Bengals!

This will actually be a heck of a matchup. Two young, stud QB's from the same Draft Class in Justin Herbert for the Chargers, and Joe Burrow for the Bengals. This could be a rivalry in the making, who the hell knows. A loss for the Bengals would keep the Bengals behind the Titans in the win column for AFC seedings.

Go JUSTIN and go CHARGERS!

BILLS need to beat the Patriots!

These Bill-Patriots games might be the most important games for the Titans that aren't actually Titans games. The Bills and Patriots still play twice this season. The Titans beat the Bills but lost to the Pats. So really, the Titans are Bills fans the rest of the regular season unless the Bills are in a position to surpass the Titans in total wins.

A Bills win would give the Bills the lead in the AFC East and an 8-4 record, and since the Titans beat the Bills the Titans would have the tie-breaking advantage.

This game is BIG, Titans fans are basically straight up Bills fans tomorrow night on Monday Night Football.

I think the most important teams that the Titans need to fail overall, is probably the Ravens and the Patriots. If they both lose this week, I'm pretty sure the Titans would re-capture the #1 seed, at least for a week or something. I don't know which teams have had bye weeks or not honestly.

If all these teams I named win, that would be a LEGENDARY W BYE WEEK for the TITANS.

But if the Steelers and Bills both win, that would be freakin AMAZING sauce.

Let's go Titans heal up, and watch other teams hurt each other for a change!!! #Titanup!!
