While Tennessee Titans fans are hoping for a successful campaign this year, the odds are stacked against the team. This can be seen in the latest NFL analysis which projected their record for the new season.
The Titans enter the 2024 season with considerable uncertainty surrounding their performance, largely hinging on the development of second-year quarterback Will Levis. The Titans find themselves in a highly competitive AFC South, where the potential for both success and failure looms large.
Levis, alongside other second-year quarterbacks in the division, has shown flashes of talent but also inconsistency. In his last three healthy seasons, he averaged over 4,400 passing yards and 30 touchdowns, but injury setbacks have hindered his progress. As the Titans transition to a new offensive system under head coach Brian Callahan, who previously led a pass-heavy approach with the Bengals, the shift could significantly impact Levis’s performance.
Defensively, the Titans possess some standout talents, including star defensive lineman Jeffery Simmons. However, overall unit rankings suggest vulnerabilities that could impact their competitiveness. With a mix of experienced players and a new coaching staff, the team aims to find balance and consistency.
As the season unfolds, all eyes will be on Levis. If he can harness his potential and adapt to the new system, the Titans might surprise many. However, without significant improvement in key areas, they could struggle to meet expectations in 2024.
Tennessee Titans Projected To Struggle in Latest NFL 2024 Analysis
Unlike CJ Stroud and the Houston Texans, the Titans aren’t predicted to perform well in the AFC South division with a projected record of 6.2 wins. This can be seen in an analysis Cynthia Frelund did for the league’s official website.

Titans passers faced pressure less than 2.5 seconds after the snap on 19.7 percent of their dropbacks in 2023, the third-highest rate in the league, per NGS. I do know one thing: I have a lot of faith in new offensive line coach Bill Callahan getting the absolute most out of the O-line, something he has done at every stop along his illustrious career (most recently with the Browns). My model ranked last season’s Tennessee O-line 31st in the league. Big improvements here will help Brian Callahan (son of Bill) in his first season as head coach.
Tennessee is starting the 2024 season with an upgraded roster and a challenging sixth-hardest schedule. Led by new head coach Brian Callahan, the Titans will face tough opponents over the course of the season, including the Cincinnati Bengals and Los Angeles Chargers, alongside their AFC South rivals.
It remains to be seen how the Titans will fare once the season is done. In any case, fans of the franchise must stay tuned to see if their team can exceed expectations or justify the prediction given to them.
