All three of his touchdowns were thrown by quarterback Carson Palmer, who completed 32 of 38 passes for 283 yards and three scores. He finished the game with a passer rating. The Titans did enough in the first half to keep the game within reach, but three consecutive touchdown drives by the Bengals to begin the second half diminished their hope of a comeback. In the first quarter, the Titans began the game with a three-and-out. The Bengals took over and went 76 yards on 10 plays. They scored when Rudi Johnson rumbled over the goal line for a five-yard touchdown run. It was the beginning of a productive day for the running back, who led all rushers in the game with 25 carries for 88 yards. Early in the second quarter, Titans quarterback Vince Young connected with Justin Gage on a 73-yard reception. It was the longest pass of Young s career and the longest reception of Gage s career. But the Titans were unable to capitalize on the play, as Young was sacked and stripped of the ball two plays later by linebacker Dhani Jones. The Bengals recovered on their own five-yard line. However, the Titans defense got the ball back on their only takeaway of the game on the ensuing drive. Palmer threw a pass that was intended for wide receiver Chris Henry, but it was deflected and caught by Titans safety Calvin Lowry for his first career interception. Lowry had only recently entered the game for an injured Chris Hope. The turnover resulted in a 28-yard field goal by Rob Bironas.

7 MIKE REINFELDT IN FIRST SEASON AS GM On February 12, the Titans hired former Oilers all-pro safety Mike Reinfeldt as the team s new general manager. Reinfeldt joins the Titans after spending seven seasons with the Seattle Seahawks. In his first offseason at his new job, Reinfeldt made several moves to strengthen the team s roster. He signed four unrestricted free agents that made the 53-man roster -- CB Nick Harper (Indianapolis), WR Justin Gage (Chicago), CB Kelly Herndon (Seattle) and WR Eric Moulds (Houston) -- and signed restricted free agent LB Ryan Fowler from the Dallas Cowboys. Reinfeldt also worked to re-sign several of the team s own free agents, including running back Chris Brown and quarterback Kerry Collins. During the preseason, the team added former Pro Bowl defensive tackle Corey Simon. In his first NFL Draft as a general manager, he used his top choices on first-round defensive back Michael Griffin, second-round running back Chris Henry and third-round wide receiver Paul Williams. Reinfeldt s resume includes 21 years of prior experience as a front office executive and another eight as an NFL player. In his 15 years split between Seattle and Green Bay, the teams he was associated with won a combined six division titles, made 10 playoff appearances, four NFC Championship game appearances, three Super Bowl appearances, one world title (1996), amassed 12 winning seasons and 142 regular season wins. In Seattle, Reinfeldt last held the title of Vice President of Football Administration and was responsible for player contract negotiations, salary cap management, player evaluations and numerous aspects of the day-to-day football operations. In eight seasons at Green Bay, he served a number of roles, including Chief Financial Officer for three years ( ) and adding the title of VP of Administration from Reinfeldt was instrumental in bringing general manager Ron Wolf to the Packers in When Mike Holmgren left the Packers for Seattle, he handpicked Reinfeldt to join him with the Seahawks. Reinfeldt was a safety for the Oilers franchise from , earning Pro Bowl and All- Pro honors in He ranks seventh on the club s career interception list with 26 and matched the team record for interceptions in a season with 12 in Reinfeldt started 102 consecutive games as the franchise reached the height of the Luv Ya Blue era and the team advanced to two AFC Championship games. He entered the NFL as an undrafted free agent out of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, originally signing with the Oakland Raiders and playing in two games before being cut and signed by the Oilers. Before joining the Packers in 1991, Reinfeldt spent three years ( ) at the University of Southern California as the associate athletic director and spent another three years ( ) with the L.A.

8 TITANS HEAD COACH JEFF FISHER Jeff Fisher is in his 13th full season as head coach of the Titans in 2007, more than twice the years of service of any other head coach in franchise history. He was named interim head coach for the last six games of the 1994 season and has been in his current post ever since, leading the team through the transition from its final years in Houston to some of the club s greatest successes in Tennessee. Fisher s clubs have found ways to win games, even in the most trying times. He holds the franchise record for wins by a head coach, and his win total placed him in 31st place all-time among NFL head coaches and sixth among active head coaches heading into the 2007 season.

9 TEXANS HEAD COACH GARY KUBIAK Gary Kubiak returned to his hometown of Houston on Jan. 26, 2006 to become the second head coach in the history of the Houston Texans. In his rookie season as a head coach, Kubiak guided the Texans to a 6-10 record, tripling the team s win total of the year before. The six victories included wins in three of the last five games of the season and the franchise s first-ever win over Indianapolis. The six wins were the second-most in franchise history. All six wins came versus AFC opponents, giving the Texans their most wins over conference foes in team annals. Houston s three wins in December matched the best month in team history, and wins over Indianapolis and Cleveland to close the year gave the Texans back-to-back wins for the first time in 32 games. The win over Cleveland on New Year s Eve was the team s first season-ending victory in five years. Kubiak guided his team to a 4-4 record at home, the most wins at Reliant Stadium in team history. Prior to landing his current position in Houston, Kubiak spent 20 of the previous 23 years in Denver. He played for the Broncos from as the backup for Hall of Fame quarterback John Elway. During his time as a player in the Mile High City, he was a part of three teams that reached the Super Bowl. Kubiak began his coaching career in 1992 as the running backs coach at his alma mater Texas A&M. Under Kubiak s watchful eye, running back Greg Hill was named second team All-America his junior year and was selected by Kansas City in the first round of the 1994 draft. Kubiak started his NFL coaching career with the San Francisco 49ers in As quarterbacks coach, he guided Hall of Famer Steve Young to his best season as a pro. Under Kubiak s tutelage, Young had a career-high 70.3 GARY KUBIAK AT A GLANCE Regular season record: (.423) Postseason record: 0-0 Overall record: (.423) vs. Titans: 0-3 on the road vs. Titans: 0-1 at home vs. Titans: 0-2 vs. Jeff Fisher: 0-3 Year as Texans head coach: 2 Year as NFL head coach: 2 completion percentage. He threw 35 touchdowns, passed for 3,969 yards and set an NFL record passer rating, a mark that would stand for 10 seasons. Young captured Super Bowl XXIX MVP honors by tossing a record six touchdowns in San Francisco s win over the San Diego Chargers. In the spring of 1995, Kubiak returned to the Broncos as offensive coordinator, where he would steer Denver to the organization s best numbers in team history and help lead the team to seven postseason trips and two Super Bowl titles in 11 seasons. Kubiak began as the offensive coordinator/quarterbacks coach to his former teammate, Elway. Kubiak made an immediate impact as Elway threw for 3,970 yards, the second best mark of his Hall-of-Fame career.

Since the start of the 1999 season, the Titans have successfully controlled the ball for 30 minutes or more in 91 of 139 regular season games (65.5 percent). When they do so, they win approximately two-thirds of their games. They are (.659) in regular season games when they win time of possession versus (.417) when they do not during that time span. From the start of the 1995 season through the end of the 2006 season, the Titans ranked third in the NFL in average time of possession at 31:40.

In games they do not allow a 100-yard rusher, they are (.611). The Titans have had the most success stopping the run at home. The Titans have only allowed eight 100-yard rushers (Edgerrin James, Larry Johnson, Fred Taylor, Domanick Davis, Shaun Alexander, Julius Jones, Wali Lundy and Maurice Jones-Drew) in 69 regular season games at LP Field ( ). D-LINE CONTROLLING LINE OF SCRIMMAGE A great deal of Tennessee s success on defense thus far in 2007 can be attributed to the defense s ability to control the line of scrimmage. Starting defensive ends Kyle Vanden Bosch and Antwan Odom, starting defensive tackles Albert Haynesworth and Tony Brown, and several reserve linemen have helped the defense increase overall production from last season. The defense s numbers are up from last season in sacks, quarterback pressures and tackles for loss.

Opponents are gaining an average of 91.6 rushing yards per game (sixth in the NFL) and an average of passing yards per game (seventh in the NFL) against the Titans.

12 TITANS RUSH TO THE FRONT The Titans have picked up in 2007 where they left off in 2006 in the running game. The team totaled 469 carries for 2,214 yards and 15 touchdowns in The yardage total ranked fifth in the NFL, and the 4.7 yardsper-carry average was the highest in a season in team history. Tennessee s ground game improved in 2006 after the first five games thanks to a solidified offensive line, the emergence of Travis Henry and the running ability of quarterback Vince Young, whose first start came in Week 4. From the sixth game through the end of the season, the Titans ranked third in the league with rushing yards per game. In Tennessee s first game of 2007 (9/9 at Jacksonville), they gained 282 yards on the ground, the second-best total in team history. That set the tone for the Titans to have the NFL s fourth-ranked rushing offense (132.0 yards per game) this season. Running the football has long been a staple of Jeff Fisher clubs. Since the start of the 1995 season, his first full season as head coach, the Titans have ranked consistently in the NFL s top 10 in rushing yards per game.

While the previous two seasons resulted in road records of 3-5 and 1-7, the Titans under Head Coach Jeff Fisher normally have been one of the strongest teams in the NFL in terms of road victories. The Titans have the fifth-best road record in the NFL since the start of the 1995 season, the first full season under Fisher. Since that time, the franchise has gone on to win 53 out of their 102 games on the road (.520). The Titans have posted a.500 or better road record in nine of the last 12 seasons.

Vince Lombardi John Madden Jeff Fisher TITANS ROAD RUSHING One of the keys to Tennessee s consistency in the running game is the team s ability to perform on the road. The team has proven under Jeff Fisher it has the ability to do so even in the most hostile environments. In Week 1 at Jacksonville, the Titans set a team road rushing record with 282 yards on the ground. The total surpassed the previous team road record of 257 rushing yards on Dec. 14, 1980 at Green Bay. Since Fisher took over fulltime as the team s head coach in 1995, the Titans are third in the NFL in rushing yards per road contest, averaging rushing yards per game. In 2006, the Titans ranked second in the NFL in rushing yards per game on the road. In eight games away from home, they totaled 1,274 yards on the ground for an average of That number trailed only one team, the Atlanta Falcons, who averaged yards.

17 Hall of Fame offensive lineman Mike Munchak began coaching the team s offensive line in Since that time, the unit has consistently been ranked in the top 10 in fewest sacks allowed, net rushing yards and average rushing yards. In only one season (2001) since taking over as offensive line coach have the Titans finished the season not ranked in the top 10 in any of the three categories. In 2007, the same offensive line returns to the team that started the majority of games in left tackle Michael Roos, left guard Jacob Bell, center Kevin Mawae, right guard Benji Olson and right tackle David Stewart. If the group stays healthy, it would be the first time in Munchak s tenure that the same offensive line carried over from one season to the next. In 2006, the re-made offensive line came together to rank tied for 10th in sacks allowed (29), rank fifth in rushing yards per game (138.4) and place seventh in yards per carry (4.7). The yards-per-carry average set a new franchise record. The line members helped running back Travis Henry finish fifth in the AFC and 10th in the NFL with 1,211 rushing yards. The team s 2,214 rushing yards were the most by the Titans since 1997 (2,414 yards). During the 2006 offseason, the Titans signed Mawae, a six-time Pro Bowler, as an unrestricted free agent. Mawae spent the previous eight seasons with the New York Jets after playing his first four seasons with the Seattle Seahawks. He has now blocked for a 1,000-yard rusher in 10 of his 13 NFL seasons. During his Jets career, the 6-foot-4, 289-pound center helped Jets running backs to yard games and paved the way for Curtis Martin to become the NFL's fourth all-time leading rusher. TITANS OFFENSIVE LINE PRODUCTION Michael Roos Jacob Bell Kevin Mawae Benji Olson David Stewart The offensive lineman with the most current experience with the Titans is Olson, a 6-4, 320-pound lineman who is in his 10th year with the team. Olson has played in more games as a member of the Titans than any other current player with the exception of punter Craig Hentrich. He started all but one game in 2006 (12/10 at Houston). Bell, currently in his fourth season, started every game at left guard after Zach Piller injured his ankle in the third game of Bell started two games at right tackle, bringing his season totals to 15 starts in 15 games. The starters on the outside were Roos and Stewart. Roos, a secondround draft pick in 2005, started 15 games as a rookie at right tackle before switching to the left side for all of Stewart, a 2005 fourth-round pick, did not play as a rookie but started 14 games at right tackle in The chart below details the team s regular starters on the offensive line since 1997, the year Munchak took the reigns as the team s offensive line coach, and the results the line helped produce.

18 QB VINCE YOUNG IN YEAR 2 Titans quarterback Vince Young entered his second NFL season with great expectations after producing a historic rookie season. The 6-foot-5, 233-pound signal caller set virtually every rookie passing record for the franchise, including passing totals of 2,199 yards and 12 touchdowns. Additionally, he gained 552 yards on the ground, becoming the first quarterback in the Super Bowl era (1966-present) to rush for 500 yards as a rookie. He scored seven rushing touchdowns, also a first for a rookie quarterback in the Super Bowl era. After playing as a back-up in two of Tennessee s first three games of 2006, Young emerged as a starter in Week 4 (10/1) and started the remainder of the season. His eight wins marked the fifth-highest total by a rookie quarterback since 1970 NFL-AFL merger, and he directed a six-game winning streak that was the third-longest by a rookie quarterback since the merger. Since 1960, 57 rookie quarterbacks have started more than half of their team s games, and Young is only the 10th member of that group to have a winning record.

19 VINCE YOUNG IN THE AFC SOUTH The 2006 season was one in which then-rookie quarterback Vince Young was educated on playing in the AFC South division. His second career start came at the future Super Bowl Champion Indianapolis Colts, and three of his first five starts came within the division. While Young was able to win four of his six starts in divisional games as a rookie, he also was able to grow statistically in the second match-up with each opponent. He exceeded his initial passer rating in two of the three rematches, and in the game his passer rating dropped (12/10 at Houston), he dramatically increased his yardage total. Young now has had an opportunity to play three games against two division opponents in the Jaguars (twice) and the Colts.

30 DEFENSIVE OVERVIEW DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR: Jim Schwartz -- 15th NFL Season, 9th with Titans (7th as coordinator) While the Titans defense enters the 2007 season with several veteran leaders in place, the continued development of young talent and competition at key positions was a focal point during the offseason by Jim Schwartz, who begins his ninth season with the Titans and seventh as defensive coordinator. Outside linebacker Keith Bulluck, safety Chris Hope and defensive end Kyle Vanden Bosch are all established presences on defense. Meanwhile, other positions could see change from As the 2006 season progressed, the Titans defense provided several big plays and contributed to the team winning eight of its final 11 games. The defense scored five touchdowns during the season, tying for the second-highest number in the NFL and the second-highest number by the club since The Titans returned two interceptions for touchdowns and had three fumble returns for scores. Overall in the NFL, the Titans defense in 2006 ranked 30th against the run, 27th against the pass and 32nd in total defense.
