\"\"
\nThe Tennessee Titans finished last season strong following a disappointing 0-6 start and hope they can pick up where they left off en route to a playoff appearance this year.\u00a0 The Titans were a completely different team after their bye week in 2009, winning five straight and seven of eight with a more mature Vince Young under center.\u00a0\u00a0 Tennessee head coach Jeff Fisher wants that same Young directing his squad in 2010 because All-Pro running back Chris Johnson will have a very difficult time duplicating his magnificent 2,006-yard season of a year ago.\u00a0 Keeping Johnson healthy will be critical to the team\u2019s success, so Fisher will rely on Young and a host of reserves in the offensive backfield to help lighten the load.\u00a0 The NFL did not do the Titans any favors either, as they have the second-hardest schedule in the league this season.<\/p>\n
