Kickoff at Qwest Field (capacity 67,000) is scheduled for 9:00 CDT on Saturday, Aug. 14. THE BROADCAST The game will be televised regionally on the Titans Preseason TV Network, including flagship WKRN-Channel 2 in Nashville. Cory Curtis will handle play-by-play duties, while former Titans running back Eddie George will provide color commentary. Dawn Davenport will report from the sidelines. A full listing of preseason affiliates is available on page 2 of this release. Additionally, fans across the country will have the opportunity to watch the Titans and Seahawks live on NFL Network. The WKRN and Seattle KING-5 broadcasts will each be shown for a half. The Titans Radio Network, including Nashville flagship 104.5 The Zone, will broadcast the game across the Mid-South with the “Voice of the Titans” Mike Keith, color commentator Frank Wycheck, sideline reporter Cody Allison and gameday host Larry Stone. THE MATCHUP The Titans begin the 2010 preseason in the same place where they ended the 2009 regular season. On Jan. 3, they defeated the Seahawks at Qwest Field by a final score of 17-13. Titans running back Chris Johnson secured the biggest headlines of the day, be- coming the sixth player in NFL history to reach 2,000 rushing yards in a season (2,006) and also setting a new single-season record for total yards from scrimmage (2,509). Eight days later, the Seahawks hired Pete Carroll as their new head coach. Carroll previously enjoyed a nine-year run (2001-09) as the head coach at the University of South- ern California, where he led the Trojans to two national championships. He has 16 years of NFL experience, including stints as the head coach of the New York Jets and New England Patriots. Additionally, John Schneider was hired as Seattle’s new general manager early in the offseason. Seattle went 5-11 in 2009 as key injuries accumulated, but Carroll’s arrival and an influx of young talent has produced optimism. In addition to bringing back players like quarterback Matt Hasselbeck, wide receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh and linebackers Lofa Tatupu and Aaron Curry, the Seahawks added running back Leon Washington from the New York Jets and quarterback Charlie Whitehurst from the San Diego Chargers. Their nine-member draft class included Oklahoma State offensive tackle Russell Okung, Texas defensive back Earl Thomas and Notre Dame wide receiver/Hendersonville (Tenn.) native Golden Tate. Titans coach Jeff Fisher, who has the longest current tenure of any NFL head coach, is entering his 16th preseason at the helm. His team has high hopes in 2010 after a strong finish a year ago. The Titans lost their first six games of the 2009 regular season but rebounded to win eight of their final 10 matchups. Led by Johnson and quarterback Vince Young, they fin- ished 12th in the league in total offense and second in rushing offense. Defensively, the Titans were ranked 31st during their 0-6 start, but they improved to 15th over their final 10 games. PRESEASON Day Date Opponent Kickoff TV Sat.

ALL-TIME SERIES RESULTS The Titans open the preseason this year in the same location they ended the 2009 regular season on Jan. 3. In that game, the 15th all-time meeting (regular season and post-season) between the Titans and Seahawks, the Titans battled to a 17-13 victory. Running back Chris Johnson’s final carry of his historic day resulted in a one-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter to give the Titans the win. Earlier in the game, Johnson became the sixth player in NFL history to reach 2,000 rushing yards in a season, and he also set a new NFL record with 2,509 yards from scrimmage in a season. The Seahawks now lead the series 9-6, although the Titans have won the lone playoff game between the clubs. Seattle won five consecutive games and seven out of eight until the Titans won the most recent matchup. On the road against the Seahawks, the Titans own a 2-6 record, although the first seven games were played at the Kingdome. Qwest Field opened in 2002. Prior to Jan. 3, the Titans last traveled to the Emerald City in 1998 and were defeated when a 48-yard Todd Peterson field goal with one second remaining gave the Seahawks a 20-18 win. Oilers kicker Al Del Greco’s 42-yard field goal had previously given Houston the lead with 33 seconds to go. The Seahawks began play as an expansion team in the NFC West in 1976. One sea-son later, they were moved to the AFC West and played the then-Houston Oilers for the first time. The Oilers won the initial meeting (Nov. 20) by a 22-10 final score. In a 1987 Wild Card Playoff game, the Oilers defeated the Seahawks at the Astrodome 23-20 in overtime. It was the Oilers’ first playoff victory since the 1979 season. The 2009 finale was the second meeting between the teams since the Seahawks mi-grated from the AFC West to the NFC West to begin the 2002 season, when the league was realigned to eight four-team divisions. On Dec. 18, 2005, the only time the Titans and Seahawks have played at LP Field, the Titans overcame an early 14-0 deficit and temporarily took the lead by scoring 24 consecutive points. Quarterback Steve McNair passed for 310 yards and two touchdowns to Drew Bennett. However, Seahawks quarterback Matt Has-selbeck’s two second-half touchdown passes provided the difference in a 28-24 finish.

The Titans entered their 2009 regular season finale in Seattle with two goals: defeat the Seahawks to finish with an 8-8 record, and help running back Chris Johnson achieve several historic statistical milestones. They succeeded on both fronts, winning 17-13 as Johnson reached 2,000 rushing yards on the season and set a new NFL record for yards from scrimmage. The Titans jumped out to a lead on their first drive of the game, when, on fourth-and-one from Seattle’s six-yard line, Johnson rushed left for a touchdown. He totaled 35 rushing yards and 10 receiving yards on the drive. Early in the second quarter, the Seahawks tied the game after a five-play, 72-yard drive. Matt Hasselbeck found tight end John Carlson for a six-yard touchdown pass. The Titans had a chance to go into halftime with a lead, but a 47-yard field goal attempt by Rob Bironas sailed left. Instead, they fell behind 10-7 early in the third quarter on a 35-yard field goal by Seahawks kicker Olindo Mare. The Titans responded with a scoring drive, moving the ball 50 yards on 14 plays before Bironas booted a 47-yard field goal. The Titans committed their second costly turnover of the game late in the third quarter. Johnson fumbled at the Tennessee 16-yard line, and safety Deon Grant recovered the ball at the 31. Nine plays later, Mare kicked a 20-yard field goal to give the Seahawks a 13-10 lead early in the fourth quarter. Two plays into the ensuing Titans possession, Johnson’s 62-yard touchdown run was called back due to a holding penalty. That would have put Johnson well over the 2,000-yard mark, but instead he crossed the barrier on a four-yard run later in the series. With less than seven minutes remaining in the game, a 19-yard punt by

Seattle’s Jon Ryan resulted in the Titans starting a drive on the Seahawks’ 28-yard line. Five plays later, Johnson scored on a one-yard run that would be the final score of the game. Hasselbeck helped the Seahawks make a late surge, but with 1:19 on the clock, Titans linebacker Gerald McRath intercepted a pass intended for Justin Forsett at the Tennessee 21-yard line. Johnson totaled 36 carries for 134 yards and three receptions for 20 yards. In the second quarter, he broke Marshall Faulk’s 1999 record of 2,429 yards from scrimmage. Johnson also passed Earl Campbell’s 1980 single-season franchise rushing record of 1,934 yards, and his 11th consecutive 100-yard rushing game tied Marcus Allen for second all-time, trailing only Barry Sanders’ 14-game streak in 1997. Quarterback Vince Young completed 17 of 28 passes for 171 yards. His leading receiver, Nate Washington, caught six passes for 83 yards.

WEEK 2 AUTOGRAPH SCHEDULE

Training camp is the best time for fans to get an up-close look at the current Tennessee Titans. It is the only time of the year when practice is open to the public. A total of 18 practices are scheduled for fans to watch from July 31 through Aug. 26. For more information on Titans training camp, fans can call the team’s training camp hotline at (615) 565-4190 or log on to the team’s official website, TitansOnline.com.

FAN ADMISSION AND PARKING: Admission to practice and parking for fans is free at Baptist Sports Park. Fans attending training camp can park directly across the street from Baptist Sports Park in the CVS/Caremark corporate offices at 445 Great Circle Road.

Directions to training camp parking: • From Interstate 65 in downtown Nashville, take Exit 85 (Rosa Parks Boulevard) North. • Proceed on Rosa Parks Boulevard and turn right on Athens Way. • Turn left on Great Circle Road. • Security officials will direct fans to the parking lot on the right and assist crossing the street into Baptist Sports Park.

At the practice facility, fans are permitted to walk along and watch from the outside perimeter of the three outdoor practice fields. Gates to the practice field generally open 15 minutes prior to the scheduled practice. Fans should be prepared to stand during practice, as bleacher seating is very limited. Workouts inside the practice “bubble” are closed to the public.

PRACTICE TIMES: The majority of training camp practices begin at 3:30 p.m., but other practice times are scattered throughout the camp schedule. A complete schedule with exact dates and times appears on Page 3 of this release.

AUTOGRAPHS: Every player on the Titans roster will take part in a free autograph session after practice at least once during training camp. Generally, three to five players are as-signed to the autograph schedule each day, and usually the players sign autographs along the sideline of the field nearest to the fan entrance. Additional players may choose to sign autographs at their discretion. The players’ time is limited, however, and fans are not guar-anteed to receive autographs. A tentative autograph schedule is released approximately one week in advance at TitansOnline.com and through various media outlets. A weekly schedule appears on the left of this page. The autograph schedule is subject to change without notice. DRESS APPROPRIATELY: Fans should dress appropriately for the heat of Middle Tennes-see. Training camp practices often take place during the hottest portions of the day, and there are very few shaded areas overlooking the practice fields at Baptist Sports Park.

ACCESS TO PRACTICE IS ON A FIRST-COME, FIRST-SERVED BASIS: Although over-crowding is rare at training camp practices, there is a limit to the number of fans who can safely attend practices. Fans arriving first will be given first priority.

MERCHANDISE AND CONCESSIONS: A merchandise tent will be open during all prac-tices, selling a variety of Titans goods and apparel. The merchandise tent will be located at the entrance to the practice field. Additionally, a concession stand selling ice cold Coca-Cola products will be open during all practices. Fans are permitted to bring their own refresh-ments. However, tobacco products and alcoholic beverages are strictly prohibited.

VIDEO CAMERAS PROHIBITED: Fans are not permitted to use video cameras during train-ing camp practices and are asked to not bring them onto the premises. Video features on cellular devices are also prohibited from being used. However, “still” photography cameras are permitted.

WEATHER CONDITIONS: The safety of fans and players is the organization’s top priority during training camp practices. If inclement weather, particularly lightening, is moving into the area, practice may be moved to the team’s indoor practice “bubble,” where fans are not permitted due to space restrictions. Practice also is subject to be moved indoors due to extreme heat conditions. Upon inclement weather, fans may be asked to depart the practice facility.

The Titans might have one of the toughest paths to success in 2010 if past results are an indication of what lies ahead. Their 16 opponents in 2010 went a combined 140-116 during the 2009 regular season for a win-ning percentage of .547. That ties the AFC South rival Houston Texans for the most difficult schedule in the NFL. In addition to home and road games against each of their AFC South rivals, the Titans will face every team from the AFC West and every team from the NFC East. Additionally, every team has two conference games scheduled based on order of finish within its respective division. Home dates are set with the Texans (9-7), Jacksonville Jaguars (7-9), Denver Broncos (8-8), Indianapolis Colts (14-2), Oakland Raiders (5-11), Philadelphia Eagles (11-5), Pittsburgh Steelers (9-7) and Washington Red-skins (4-12). On the road, the Titans will face the Dallas Cowboys (11-5), Texans, Colts, Jaguars, Kansas City Chiefs (4-12), New York Giants (8-8), Miami Dolphins (7-9) and San Diego Chargers (13-3). The Titans will play five total games against playoff teams in 2009. The Colts (two games), Cowboys and Chargers all won their respective divisions, while the Eagles were a Wild Card team. In the preseason, the Titans will travel to face the Seattle Seahawks and Carolina Panthers. They will host the Arizona Cardinals and New Or-leans Saints at LP Field.

The Titans may carry 80 players on their roster at the start of training camp. NFL rules limit teams to 80 total players on active and reserve lists. Clubs must trim their active rosters twice prior to the start of the regular season. On Aug. 31, three days after the Titans’ third preseason game, the roster can have a maximum of 75 active players. On Sept. 4, two days after the fourth and final preseason game, the NFL will mandate active rosters reach their regular-season limit of 53 players. Players placed on reserve lists such as Injured Reserve do not count towards the 53-man active roster limit. After the final cutdown, an eight-player practice squad may be estab-lished as early as Sept. 5.

Titans vs. Seahawks • Page 12 www.TitansOnline.comTITANS TRAINING CAMP / 2010 OUTLOOK

A few of the many storylines in Titans training camp: ¾ Jeff Fisher will run his 16th training camp as the team’s head coach. Fisher, who has the longest tenure with one team of any active NFL head coach, spearheaded his first camp in 1995. He took over the team as interim head coach for the final six games of 1994.

¾ The Titans will have exactly two weeks from the first training camp prac-tice on July 31 to their preseason opener at the Seattle Seahawks on Aug. 14. Their home preseason opener is against the Arizona Cardinals on Aug. 23. Following a clash at the Carolina Panthers on Aug. 28, the Titans conclude their preseason at LP Field on Sept. 2 against the Super Bowl Champion New Orleans Saints. Other than 2009, when the Titans played the Buffalo Bills in the Hall of Fame Game, this is the first year since 1999 the Titans will not play their preseason opener at LP Field.

¾ The Titans will conduct one training camp practice against the Cardinals, who have elected to remain in Nashville between their game against the Titans and their visit to Chicago to play the Bears. The combined prac-tice will take place at Baptist Sports Park at 3:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Aug. 25. In previous years, the Titans have hosted the Indianapolis Colts (2001), Miami Dolphins (2002 and 2003), Atlanta Falcons (2004) and St. Louis Rams (2008) at Baptist Sports Park during training camp.

¾ Vince Young is entrenched as the team’s starting quarterback as camp begins. The fifth-year signal caller led the Titans to an 8-2 record and compiled a career-high 82.9 passer rating after entering the starting lineup in 2009.

¾ Chris Johnson begins his third training camp. In 2009, the running back became the sixth player in NFL history to reach 2,000 rushing yards in a season (2,006), and he set a new league record with 2,509 yards from scrimmage.

¾ Defensive end Derrick Morgan headlines a nine-member Titans draft class that the public can see in action for the first time. Morgan, the 16th overall selection, ended his three-year career at Georgia Tech with 19.5 career sacks, the seventh-highest total in school history. In 2009, he was named the ACC Defensive Player of the Year after leading the ACC with 12.5 sacks. The Titans’ second and third picks in the draft were Southern California wide receiver Damian Williams and Georgia linebacker Ren-nie Curran.

¾ This is the first time since 2007 the Titans have entered training camp with the same two coordinators as the previous season. Offensive co-ordinator Mike Heimerdinger returned to his current post in 2008, and Chuck Cecil was promoted to defensive coordinator in 2009. Changes to the coaching staff in 2010 include a shift by Craig Johnson from quar-terbacks coach to assistant head coach/running backs and the promo-tion of Dowell Loggains to quarterbacks coach. Richie Wessman was promoted to offensive assistant/quality control.

Mike Reinfeldt is entering his 31st season in the NFL, his fourth as executive vice president/general manager and 12th with the Oilers/Titans franchise. Originally an All-Pro safety with the Oil-ers from 1976-83, he re-joined the franchise in 2007 after spending seven years with the Seattle Se-ahawks. In his 18 post-playing years as an NFL ex-ecutive with Tennessee, Seattle and Green Bay, his teams have won a combined seven division titles, made 12 playoff appearances, four NFC Champi-onship game appearances, three Super Bowl appearances, captured one world title (1996) and amassed 14 winning seasons. Reinfeldt has directed three previous offseasons in his current role, supplementing the roster with talented young contributors and experienced veterans through both the draft and free agency. Reinfeldt’s draft classes include two first-round picks that already have been selected to the Pro Bowl: safety Michael Griffin (2007 first-rounder) and running back Chris Johnson (2008). In 2009, Reinfeldt and the Titans selected Rutgers wide receiver Kenny Britt in the first round. Britt led the team and finished fifth among NFL rookies with 701 receiving yards. In 2010, Reinfeldt oversaw the selection of the 2009 ACC Defensive Player of the Year, defensive end Derrick Morgan. In Reinfeldt’s first first four years of free agency with the Titans (2007-10), key players added to the roster included cornerback Nick Harper, wide receiver Justin Gage, guard Jake Scott, wide receiver Nate Washington, defensive tackle Jovan Haye and linebacker Will Witherspoon. Reinfeldt also has worked to retain several key players through con-tract extensions. Since the start of the 2008 offseason, nine projected start-ers in 2010 have signed new, multi-year deals to remain with the Titans: Gage, fullback Ahmard Hall, defensive tackle Tony Brown, guard Eugene Amano, cornerback Cortland Finnegan, bookend offensive tackles Mi-chael Roos and David Stewart, nickel defensive back Vincent Fuller and guard/center Eugene Amano. Additionally, Reinfeldt helped bring aboard new members of the team’s administration upon his arrival, including Senior Director of Football Admin-istration Vincent Marino, Director of Pro Personnel Lake Dawson and Vice President of Player Personnel Ruston Webster. In Seattle, Reinfeldt last held the title of Vice President of Football Administration and was responsible for player contract negotiations, salary cap management, player evaluations and numerous aspects of the day-to-day football operations. In eight seasons with the Packers, he served a number of roles, includ-ing Chief Financial Officer for three years (1991-93) and VP of Administra-tion from 1994-98. Before joining the Packers in 1991, Reinfeldt spent three years (1988-90) at the University of Southern California as the associate athletic director and spent another three years (1985-88) with the L.A. Raiders as CFO. A former safety for the Oilers franchise from 1976-83, Reinfeldt earned Pro Bowl and All-Pro honors in 1979. He ranks seventh on the club’s career interception list with 26 and matched the team record for interceptions in a season with 12 in 1979. An undrafted free agent out of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, he originally signed with the Oakland Raiders and played in two games before being released and signed by the Oilers.

Titans vs. Seahawks • Page 15 www.TitansOnline.comTHE HEAD COACHES

Jeff Fisher is entering his 16th full season as head coach of the Ten-nessee Titans and his 11th as executive vice president in 2010. Fisher holds the franchise record for wins by a head coach and is the NFL leader in tenure with one team among active coaches. In 2009, he moved into the top 20 on the NFL’s career head coaching wins list, and he is third among active coaches (Bill Belichick, Mike Shanahan). Fisher was named interim head coach during the 1994 season and has been in his current post ever since, leading the team through the transi-tion from its final years in Houston to some of the club’s greatest successes in Tennessee. Only nine other head coaches in NFL history have coached one team in more games than Fisher has led the Oilers/Titans. The 2009 Titans became the first team in league history to finish a season with a .500 record after beginning the year 0-6. The club’s eight wins helped Fisher vault two spots on the NFL’s all-time win list, moving past Weeb Ewbank (134) and Hank Stram (136) into 20th place. En route to an AFC South Division Championship, Fisher led the 2008 squad to victories in the first 10 games of the season, a franchise record and only the 11th feat of its kind in the NFL since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger. The 2008 team recorded a 13-3 regular season record for the third time (1999, 2000) under Fisher, matching the best record in team history. Dat-ing back to the end of the 2007 schedule, the Titans won a team-record 13 consecutive regular season contests. Fisher guided the franchise to six playoff appearances (1999, 2000, 2002, 2003, 2007, 2008) from 1999 through 2009. Only three teams (In-dianapolis, New England and Philadelphia) in that time period had more postseason appearances than the Titans (tied with six other teams). Fish-er’s playoff accomplishments include three Division titles (2000, 2002 and 2008), two AFC Championship Games (1999, 2002) and one Super Bowl berth (XXXIV). Fisher was one of three NFL head coaches, joining Bill Belichick (New England) and Andy Reid (Philadelphia), to remain with his team through ev-ery game during the decade of the 2000s. Only four other coaches—Bud Grant (Minnesota, 1970s), Tom Landry (Dallas, 1970s), Chuck Noll (Pitts-burgh, 1970s and 1980s) and Don Shula (Miami, 1970s and 1980s)—previ-ously had accomplished the feat in any decade since 1970. A native of Woodland Hills, Calif., the former USC and Chicago Bears defensive back became the Titans’ 15th head coach on Jan. 5, 1995 follow-ing his six-game stint as interim head coach. His previous coaching jobs included the defensive backs coach for the Philadelphia Eagles (1986-88) and San Francisco 49ers (1992-93) and the defensive coordinator for the Eagles (1988-90), Los Angeles Rams (1991) and Oilers (1994).

Fisher facts: ¾ At USC, played in the same defensive backfield as future NFL stars Ron-nie Lott, Dennis Smith and Joey Browner.

¾ Was a seventh-round draft pick by the Chicago Bears in 1981. ¾ In 1985, served in an “unofficial assistant coach” capacity while on in-jured reserve during the Bears run to Super Bowl XX.

¾ In 2006, Fisher’s Chicago Bears record of 509 punt return yards in a season (1981) was broken by Devin Hester (600). Fisher still holds the team record for most punt returns in a season with 58 in 1984.

¾ In 1988, at the age of 30, became the NFL’s youngest defensive coordi-nator under Buddy Ryan.

¾ Serves as Co-Chairman of the NFL Competition Committee. ¾ In 2001, Fisher was named the winner of the Horrigan Award, given by the Pro Football Writers of America to the NFL representative that is the most cooperative with the media.

¾ Ran the Country Music Marathon in 2002. ¾ Fisher is an avid golfer and fisherman.

Carroll has pro-duced 34 All-American first-teamers and 53 NFL draft picks (including 14 first-rounders, with a No. 1 selection in Carson Palmer and a No. 2 in Reg-gie Bush). His USC program had the nation’s most draftees in 2006, 2008

and 2009. Prior to his time at USC, Carroll spent 16 years coaching in the NFL, including four seasons as a head coach.

Note: Tie games were not computed in winning percentage from 1920-1971. Since 1972, tie games have been computed in winning percentage counting as a half-win and half-loss.

Playing in tightly-contested games is not a recent phenomenon to the Titans. Fisher’s clubs have played a minimum of five games decided by seven points or less in each of his 15 full seasons as head coach, including 2009, when the club was 5-3 in games decided by seven points or less and 3-2 in games decided by three points or less.

One of the keys to Tennessee’s consistency in the running game is the its ability to perform on the road. The team has proven under Jeff Fisher it has the ability to do so even in the most hostile environments. Since Fisher took over as the team’s head coach in 1995, the Titans are third in the NFL in rushing yards per road contest. Seven of Tennessee’s top 10 road rushing games in the Fisher era have occured since the start of the 2006 season.

Titans running back Chris Johnson led the NFL in rushing in 2009. He continued an impressive run of Titans running backs reaching the 1,000-yard mark. The Titans selected former running back Eddie George in the first round of the 1996 NFL Draft, and since that time, no team has had more 1,000-yard rushing seasons than the Titans. George went over 1,000 yards seven times during his career (1996-00, 2002-03). Following his departure, Chris Brown (2004), Travis Hen-ry (2006), LenDale White (2007) and Chris Johnson (2008-09) all have reached the mark. That gives the Titans an NFL-high 12 seasons with a 1,000-yard rush-er since the start of the 1996 campaign. They are tied with the New York Jets, who also produced a 1,000-yard rusher in 2009, their 12th since 1996.

The Titans offensive line -- tackles Michael Roos and David Stew-art, guards Eugene Amano and Jake Scott, and center Kevin Mawae -- helped to keep opposing defensive players out of the backfield for much of the 2009 season. The Titans allowed their opponents a total of 15 sacks, which was the second-best total in the NFL. The Titans allowed a league-low 73 yards on sacks in 2009. The 15 sacks allowed by the Titans made up the second-best total in team history in a 16-game season (since 1978), trailing only the 12 sacks allowed in 2008.

Winning the time-of-possession battle is a staple of Jeff Fisher clubs. Since the start of the 1999 season, the Titans have successfully controlled the ball for longer than their opponents in 108 of 176 regular season games (61.4 percent). When they do so, they win more than two-thirds of their games. They are 75-33 (.694) in regular season games when they win time of possession versus 30-38 (.441) when they do not during that time span. In Fisher’s first 15 full seasons as head coach (1995-09), the Titans were third in the league in average time of possession at 31:17, trailing only the Pittsburgh Steelers (31:57) and Denver Broncos (31:23).

The Titans have been one of the top teams in the NFL in defending the run since the start of the 1995 season, Jeff Fisher’s first full year as a head coach. Their opponents have averaged just 100.0 rushing yards per game in that period of time.

Fewest rushing yards per game by opponents, 1995-09:

When the Titans do not allow an individual 100-yard rusher, their chances of success increase dramatically. Since the start of the 1995 sea-son, the Titans have allowed 41 100-yard rushing performances by an op-ponent. In those games, they are 10-31 (.244). In games they do not allow a 100-yard rusher since 1995, they are 125-74 (.628). The Titans have had the most success stopping the run at home. The Titans have only allowed 11 rushers reach the 100-yard mark in 88 regular season games at LP Field (1999-09): Edgerrin James, Larry Johnson, Fred Taylor, Domanick Davis, Shaun Alexander, Julius Jones, Wali Lundy, Maurice Jones-Drew (twice), LaDainian Tomlinson and Steve Slaton.

A defensive trademark of Jeff Fisher’s clubs has been success on third down. Since the start of the 1995 season, his first full season as head coach, his defense has allowed opponents to convert 36.1 percent of third downs.

Best defenses on third down from 1995 through 2009:

The Titans have been one of the league’s most successful home teams in getting to opposing quarterbacks since LP Field opened in 1999. That season also was the first season the Titans defensive line was coached by Jim Washburn.

Most sacks in homes games since LP Field opened in 1999:

The Titans have been one of the NFL’s best teams in intercepting op-posing quarterbacks since the start of the 2007 season. The secondary stayed intact from then through 2009, with Chris Hope and Michael Griffin as the team’s safeties and Cortland Finnegan and Nick Harper at corner-back. Vincent Fuller also served as the nickel defensive back during that time. Harper’s departure in 2010 leaves one of those positions open for competition. Also in 2007, Chuck Cecil was promoted to secondary coach, a post he held for two years before his elevation to defensive coordinator in 2009. Marcus Robertson then took over the role of secondary coach. And since the start of 2007, the Titans rank third in the NFL with 62 total interceptions.

Since opening LP Field in 1999, the Titans have enjoyed one of the NFL’s top homefield advantages. Due in large part to crowd noise, It has been a place where opposing offenses have struggled to not jump offsides. In the last three seasons, the Titans and Vikings (Mall of America Field at the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome) are tied for the NFL lead in opponent false start penalties in home games. In 2007, the Titans finished first in the league in the category with 23 opponent false starts at LP Field. The number dropped to eight in 2008 but then jumped back up to a league-high 18 (tied with Houston Texans) in 2009.

TITANS OFFENSIVE LINE IN THE MIKE MUNCHAK COACHING ERA

Hall of Fame offensive lineman Mike Munchak began coaching the team’s offensive line in 1997. Since that time, the unit has consistently been ranked in the top 10 in fewest sacks allowed, net rushing yards and average rushing yards. In only one season (2001) since Munchak took over as offensive line coach have the Titans not finished the season ranked in the top 10 in any of the three categories. In 2009, the line performed at a high level, allowing the team’s offense to finish second in sacks allowed (15) and first in rushing average (5.2). No NFL team since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger had averaged over five yards per carry and allowed just 15 sacks in a season. The 15 sacks allowed by the Titans represented the second-lowest total in franchise history in a 16-game season (since 1978). Additionally, the line contributed to the fifth-largest individual rushing total in NFL history, as Chris Johnson ac-cumulated 2,006 yards. There is at least one change to the unit in store for 2010. Four-year veteran Leroy Harris is ready to step into the starting lineup on a regular basis, most likely at left guard. Eugene Amano, a starter for two seasons at left guard, will slide into the center position with the departure of Kevin Mawae. Left tackle Michael Roos, right guard Jake Scott and right tackle David Stewart fill out the rest of the line, remaining in their previous spots.

A brief rundown of the club’s top offensive linemen:

¾ In 2008, the Titans turned to free agency to fill their vacant right guard spot, signing Jake Scott from the Indianapolis Colts. Scott started 55 consecutive games from 2005-07 to end his career with the Colts and has started every game in his first two seasons with the Titans.

¾ Eugene Amano has been an important contributor since his rookie year in 2004, backing up all three interior line positions for much of his first four seasons. The former seventh-round pick, who received a contract extension in 2010, stepped into a starting role at left guard in 2008 and is prepared to play center during the 2010 campaign.

¾ The starter at left tackle is Michael Roos, a former second-round pick from Eastern Washington. Roos started 15 games at right tackle as a rookie in 2005 and has started every game since then on the left side. Among other honors, he was named Associated Press first-team All-Pro and selected to the Pro Bowl in 2008. In 2009, he added second-team AP All-Pro honors.

¾ At right tackle, David “Big Country” Stewart completed his fifth NFL season in 2009. The former fourth-round pick from Mississippi State has only missed one start since entering the lineup in 2006.

¾ Leroy Harris gained experience at center, guard and right tackle during his initial three NFL seasons. The former fourth-round pick from N.C. State is expected to start at left guard in 2010.

THE OFFENSIVE LINE Tackle Michael Roos and guard Jake Scott have two of the NFL’s longest current starting streaks at their positions. Roos ranks third in the league with 80 consecutive starts at tackle, while Scott is fifth among guards with 88 consecutive starts.

QB VINCE YOUNG Entering his fifth season since being selected with the third overall pick in the 2006 NFL Draft, Vince Young once again is slated to start the year under center for the Titans. He begins the 2010 cam-paign hoping to build on a successful stretch in 2009 in which he re-established himself as the team’s sig-nal caller. After the Titans opened the 2009 season with an 0-6 record, Young entered the starting lineup and led the squad to an 8-2 record over the final 10 weeks of the season. His 82.8 passer rating established a new career high and represented the 11th-best rating by a Titans/Oilers quarterback since 1970. His yards per attempt (7.3), touchdown percentage (3.9) and inter-ception percentage (2.7) also were the best of his career. At the conclusion of the season, he was named to his second Pro Bowl as an alternate. In 2006, the 6-foot-5, 232-pound signal caller set virtually every rookie passing record for the franchise, including passing totals of 2,199 yards and 12 touchdowns. Additionally, he gained 552 yards on the ground, becoming the first quar-terback in the Super Bowl era (1966-present) to rush for 500 yards as a rookie. The Associ-ated Press NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year di-rected a six-game winning streak that was the third-longest by a rookie quarterback since the 1970 merger. Then, in 2007, Young became the youngest quarterback in franchise history to lead his team to the playoffs. The former Texas Longhorn established a 26-13 career regular season record as an NFL starter in his first four seasons. At the con-clusion of 2009, his .667 winning percentage ranked seventh in the league among active NFL quarterbacks.

Veteran quarterback Kerry Collins is entering his 16th NFL season and fifth campaign with the Ti-tans. Collins ranks 12th in NFL history and third among active players (Brett Favre and Peyton Manning) in career passing yards. He ranks 11th all-time in career completions In 2008, Collins became the team’s starter in Week 2 of the regular season and capped the year with his second career Pro Bowl. His 12 victories tied Steve McNair’s franchise record (2000) and also matched Collins’ personal high (2000). With 242 completions, 2,676 yards, 12 touchdowns and seven interceptions on 415 attempts, his passer rating of 80.2 was the third-highest of his career (2000, 2002). Prior to joining the Titans, Collins played 11 previous seasons with the Carolina Panthers (1995-98), New Orleans Saints (1998), New York Giants (1999-03) and Oakland Raiders (2004-05). Including the 2008 season, he has led his teams to the playoffs four times as a starter, including an appear-ance in the NFC Championship Game following the 1996 season with the Panthers and a Super Bowl appearance following the 2000 season with the Giants. In his 2000 campaign with the Giants, he reached 3,000 passing yards for the first time in his career and for the first of six consecutive seasons reaching the mark. In 2002, while still with the Giants, he enjoyed the most prolific season by a quarterback in franchise history. He set a team record, was first in the NFC and was fourth in the NFL with 4,073 passing yards, surpassing Phil Simms’ 1984 team record of 4,044 yards. Collins was originally selected by the Panthers out of Penn State with the fifth overall pick in the 1995 NFL Draft. He was named to his first Pro Bowl following the 1996 season.

RB CHRIS JOHNSON Running back Chris Johnson enters his third NFL season after arguably producing one of the greatest offensive seasons in team history in 2009. In doing so, he cemented his status among the league’s most exciting players. Most notably, Johnson became the sixth NFL player ever to reach 2,000 rushing yards in a sea-son, totaling 2,006 yards and 14 touchdowns on 358 carries. Only Eric Dickerson (2,105), Jamal Lewis (2,066), Barry Sanders (2,053) and Terrell Davis (2,008) have posted better rushing yardage totals in a season than John-son. O.J. Simpson (2,003) is the only other member of the 2,000-yard club. Within the group, Johnson is distinguished as the only player in NFL history to gain 2,000 rushing yards in a season and an additional 500 yards as a receiver. With 503 receiving yards, he set a new league record with 2,509 total scrimmage yards, surpassing Marshall Faulk’s 1999 re-cord output of 2,429 scrimmage yards. Johnson came away with numerous awards and accolades, including Associated Press NFL Offensive Player of the Year, being named a starter in the Pro Bowl, a unanimous AP All-Pro selection and the FedEx Ground Player of the Year.

Summary of Chris Johnson’s 2009 achievements: ¾ With 2,509 scrimmage yards, broke Marshall Faulk’s single-season

NFL record (2,429 scrimmage yards in 1999). ¾ With 2,006 rushing yards, became one of six players in NFL history to

record 2,000 rushing yards in a season. ¾ Broke Earl Campbell’s single-season franchise rushing record (1,934

in 1980). ¾ Became the first player in NFL history to rush for 2,000 yards and

record 500 receiving yards (503) in a season. ¾ Finished the season with 11 consecutive 100-yard rushing games, tied

with Marcus Allen for second all-time. (Barry Sanders holds record with 14 consecutive 100-yard rushing games.)

¾ Set a new franchise record with 228 rushing yards on Nov. 1 against the Jaguars.

¾ In one season, became the first player in NFL history to record three rushing touchdowns of 85-plus yards in a career.

¾ Tied Sid Blanks’ franchise record with a 91-yard touchdown run against the Texans on Sept. 20.

¾ Recorded the sixth-highest combined net yardage total (2,509) in NFL history (includes rushing, receiving, return yards).

¾ Scored 14 rushing touchdowns, tied with Eddie George (2000) for the third-highest total in franchise history.

¾ Ranks third in NFL history in rushing yards in a player’s first two sea-sons with 3,234 yards.

¾ Led the Titans with 50 receptions, becoming only the fifth running back to lead the franchise in receptions and the first since 1995.

In 2008, Johnson produced one of the most extraordinary campaigns by a rookie running back in Titans history. Only two players in team an-nals – Earl Campbell (1,450) and Eddie George (1,368) –rushed for more yards in their rookie seasons than Johnson, the 24th overall selection in the 2008 NFL Draft. His total of 1,228 rushing yards was the third-highest in the AFC and eighth in the NFL in 2008, while his 4.9-yard average ranked first in the AFC, fourth in the NFL and sixth in franchise history. He was fifth in the AFC and 10th in the NFL with a total of 1,488 scrimmage yards. Camp-bell and Johnson are the only rookie running backs in franchise history to be named to the Pro Bowl. In his career at East Carolina University, Johnson rushed for 2,982 yards and recorded an additional 1,296 receiving yards. At the NFL Scout-ing Combine in February 2008, he posted the fastest 40-yard dash of any prospect with a time of 4.24 seconds.

RUSHING YARDS SINCE HALL’S ARRIVAL

FB AHMARD HALL Fullback Ahmard Hall has been an unherald-ed—yet vital—offensive cog since his arrival in 2006. In 2009, he helped plow the way for Chris Johnson’s 2,000-yard rushing season, the fourth consecutive campaign Hall contributed to a 1,000-yard season by the featured Titans tailback. Hall’s blocking on the field and intangible contri-butions in the locker room continue to have far great-er impact than his statistics (one rush, 12 receptions in 2009). His fearless, thundering style of clearing running lanes helps Johnson avoid initial contact on many carries. Like-wise, the former U.S. Marine’s leadership off the field sets a professional tone in the locker room. Hall’s unique path to the NFL included a four-year stint in the U.S. Marine Corps, followed by three seasons at the University of Texas, where the former walk-on helped the school win a National Championship at the conclusion of the 2005 season. After not being selected in the 2006 sup-plemental draft, he was signed by the Titans as a 26-year-old rookie free agent. Prior to Johnson’s 2,000-yard season in 2009, Hall helped produce 1,000-yard seasons by Travis Henry in 2006 (1,211 yards), LenDale White in 2007 (1,110) and Johnson in 2008 (1,228).

LB WILL WITHERSPOON Linebacker Will Witherspoon is entering his ninth NFL season and his first with the Titans. He was signed as a free agent early in the 2010 offsea-son. Prior to his arrival in Tennessee, Witherspoon gained experience with the Carolina Panthers, St. Louis Rams and Philadelphia Eagles, playing middle and outside linebacker along the way. Proving to be remarkably durable, he missed just two total games during his first eight NFL seasons. In 2009, Witherspoon played a rare 17-game regular season (no bye) and totaled 104 tackles, one sack, one interceptions, seven passes de-fensed and one forced fumble. He was traded from the Rams to the Eagles on Oct. 20. Witherspoon spent three full seasons in St. Louis (2006-08). In 2007, was named the Rams’ MVP after leading the team with 136 tackles and tal-lying a career-high seven sacks. He was originally selected by Carolina in the third round (73rd overall) of the 2002 NFL Draft.

CB CORTLAND FINNEGAN

S MICHAEL GRIFFIN

Cornerback Cortland Finnegan enters his fifth NFL season and fourth as a starter in 2010. In 2009, Finnegan played in 13 games and led the team with five interceptions, which tied for fifth in the AFC (tied for 12th in the NFL). He added 76 tackles and a team-high 13 passes defensed. A hamstring injury kept him off the field for a total of three games. In 2008, Finnegan was named to his first ca-reer Pro Bowl and earned Associated Press All-Pro honors. He started all 16 regular season games for the second consecutive year and tied for sixth in the NFL (tied for fourth in AFC) with a career-high five interceptions, including a franchise-record 99-yard touchdown return. With five interceptions in each of the 2008 and 2009 seasons, he be-came the first Titans player to record back-to-back five interception efforts since Daryll Lewis (1994-97). As a rookie in 2006, Finnegan mostly was used in nickel and dime packages. He won a starting job at the beginning of 2007 and has been in the lineup ever since. A native of Milton, Fla., Finnegan was selected by the Titans out of Samford University in the seventh round in the 2006 NFL Draft.

S CHRIS HOPE Strong safety Chris Hope is entering his ninth NFL season and fifth campaign with the Titans. Hope was one of two Titans defenders to start all 16 games in 2009, finishing fourth on the squad with 95 tackles. He added two sacks, one quarter-back pressure, three interceptions, seven passes defensed and one forced fumble. A former third-round draft choice with the Pitts-burgh Steelers, Hope has been widely considered the leader of the Titans secondary since signing as an unrestricted free agent in 2006. In 2008, he triumphantly returned to the field after finishing the 2007 season on injured reserve with a neck injury. He subsequently produced one of the best seasons of his career and was named to the Pro Bowl after starting every game and recording four interceptions (tied for eighth in the AFC) and 93 tackles (tied for third on team). In 2006, Hope led all NFL strong safeties with 128 tackles (career-high) and his career-high five interceptions tied for first place among players at his position.
