The Tennessee Titans are gaining some traction as Super Bowl contenders.
After their win in Green Bay, the team is looking like a dominant force.
However, is this team a threat to make the Super Bowl, or just getting lucky?
There’s a case for both sides of this story with the Titans.
The Titans Have Some Things Helping Them Become A Super Bowl Threat
It takes a team to reach the biggest game in all of football.
For the Titans, they have some of the right people around to help them reach the Super Bowl.
They have an amazing coach in Mike Vrabel, who’s a mentor and personable guy to his players.

Besides having an amazing coach, the team has a premier NFL running back in Derrick Henry.
Henry, who’s coming off a foot injury from last season, is looking great this season.
While the Titans have those two, they also have a solid defense that is in the top half of the rankings.
However, they have something that will prevent them from reaching the Super Bowl.
Ryan Tannehill Isn’t Good Enough To Lead The Titans To A Super Bowl
Even with the great coaching from Vrabel, he can’t overcome the flaws of Ryan Tannehill.
While Tannehill is a solid quarterback for the Titans, he’s not good enough to beat an elite defense.
Any good pass defense in the playoffs can easily shut him down.
Playoff contenders like the Buffalo Bills and New York Jets can do this against Tannehill
If the Titans had a better quarterback, they’d be an instant Super Bowl threat.
