Week 7 — Cleveland Browns (away game)

This is a game the Titans should absolutely win — even though it’s a road game.

And that’s exactly why it’s on this list.

The Browns were terrible last season. They should be better in 2017, but not by much.

Losing to Cleveland would be awful for the Titans’ momentum near the midpoint of the season.

Division winning teams win the “easy” games like this. They don’t slip up and overlook a team. They take all of their opponents equally serious.

With this game scheduled between the Colts game and a bye week, it could be easy for the Titans to slip up. Head coach Mike Mularkey will have to work overtime this week to prepare his team.
