Colin Cowherd: “Tennessee is my dark horse in the NFL this year. Tennessee was 9-7 three years in a row and is a consistent winning football team. Best offensive line arguably in the AFC and Mike Vrabel appears to be able to coach. Can Marcus Mariota ever stay healthy?? Tennessee has proven they can go up against the best in the league and hammer them.”

Listen to Colin Cowherd explain why he believes the Tennessee Titans are his NFL biggest dark horses heading into the 2019 season, as the team looks to contend in an AFC South division that was essentially stolen from them last year when a Marcus Mariota elbow injury ended his season.

Colin thinks a healthy Mariota makes Tennessee one of the league’s most dangerous teams, as last season the Titans showed glimpses of excellence with their victories over the Eagles, Cowboys, and Patriots, the latter two including shocking blowouts of Dallas and New England.

Colin says his favorite Week 1 NFL bet is Tennessee (+5.5) at Cleveland, and says it could turn into a total Titan a**-whipping of a Browns team with massive expectations.

Check out the audio below as Colin says the mixture of an elite offensive line, competent coach, punishing running game, and accurate quarterback makes the Titans are a very viable bandwagon to jump on.
