Today at 1:00 p.m., the Tennessee Titans (3-4) take on the St. Louis Rams (3-5) following a bye week that allowed quarterback Jake Locker to heal up further and get back up to speed following an injury to his hip in Week 3. Live stream the game here or watch it on CBS. Titans fans can catch the radio broadcast on WKDF 103.3, while Rams fans can do the same on 101 ESPN.
Tennessee was off to a promising start that was derailed when Locker went down. Indianapolis has begun to run away with the AFC South division, but the Titans haven't given up hope of a division title.
"He can get that rhythm going that we felt we were getting in on offense that kind of got stripped from us," coach Mike Munchak said. "And now we've got to get in it fast because we have to win some games. If he can do that this week and get some help from his buddies, we can get ourselves going here."
They also need to get Chris Johnson going on the ground. Johnson has averaged just 3.2 yards per carry on the year, and has yet to hit paydirt on a rushing attempt. According to ESPN, the Titans are hoping to run the ball in the neighborhood of 35 times this week.
Meanwhile, with Sam Bradford having torn his ACL the Rams offense has dissolved into dust. They will rely on their defense to win games from here on out, particularly sackmaster Robert Quinn, whose 10 sacks lead the NFC.
"He's something like a superhero," backup defensive end Eugene Sims said. "He's phenomenal, he's got the speed, he's got the inside move, he's got the power. He's one of the best, if not the best."
