A week ago, the folks at PlayoffStatus.com calculated that the Titans’ probability of postseason play was 19% and I wrote this about it. Following yesterday’s crappy performance at Indianapolis, the probability is now only 5%.
| Team | Record | Conf | Remaining schedule |
| 5. Ratbirds | 10-4 | 7-3 | vs CLE, @ CIN |
| 6. Jets | 8-6 | 6-5 | vs NYG, @ MIA |
| 7. Bengals | 8-6 | 6-5 | vs ARI, vs BAL |
| 8. Titans | 7-7 | 5-5 | vs JAC, @ HOU |
| 9. Raiders | 7-7 | 5-5 | @ KC, vs SD |
| 10. Chargers | 7-7 | 6-5 | @ DET, @ OAK |
More after the jump.
The Jets’ loss to the Iggles yesterday makes the Titans loss even more disappointing. A Titans win at Indy yesterday would have them sitting in that #6 slot right now, needing only to win out to claim that spot.
If you’re one of those who thought at the beginning of the season that the Titans were a six-win team, then they’ve already exceeded your expectations. If you thought they were a 10-6 team, then yesterday’s loss was probably a bitter pill to swallow.
An optimist can say that two Titans wins, plus a loss by both the Jets and the Bengals, will put all three teams at 9-7.
I’m not particularly optimistic about the rest of the Titans’ season, especially following yesterday’s debacle, but I congratulate those of you who remain so.
