Free NFL Pick: Colts vs. Titans
Tony George delivers his free NFL Pick for Week 5 of the 2009 season from the Colts vs. Titans game.
They say all things come around in the NFL, and I have banked on Tennessee the past couple of weeks only to find myself on the losing end. It is official, the Titans simply do have the horses this year to get it done. Losing Albert Hainsworth on defense totally disrupted their chemistry as evidenced by giving up 34, 24 and 37 points in the last 3 weeks on defense. Not a typical Jeff Fisher coached team by any stretch of the imgaination.
The Colts on the other hand are smoking hot with 13 straight regular season wins and Peyton Manning is on fire. His cast of recievers has changed, but as always, he makes any average WR better. His QB rating of 114 is one of the best in the NFL while his Titan counterpart Kerry Collins is back to his old form with paltry 68 rating with more interceptions than touchdowns. Bob Sanders is licking his chops about right now.
To add more misery for the Titans, they have injury issues at cornerback for this game asd well as linebacker issues, not a good sign of things to come when playing the high octane, highly productive Colts offense pounding out 29 points a game against a defense allowing 34 points a game.. The Colts defense in the last 3 games has given up only 16 ppg, and in a twist of fate for the Titans, they have allowed an average of 31.
Last year Indy came into Nashville and won 23-0 and while I think the offense of Tennessee will score some points here as they have shown some production on offense, they simply have shown no ability to stop anyone on the other side of the ball and will lose their 5th straight this Sunday.
