The Tennessee Titans are AFC South champions after narrowly defeating the Houston Texans at NRG Stadium in Week 17, 41-38 — and now we know who Tennessee will host in the Wild Card Round.
While the date and time of the game has yet to be determined, the Titans will draw the Baltimore Ravens in the first round after they punched their ticket to the postseason with a Week 17 win over the Cincinnati Bengals.
The Titans and Ravens are no strangers to one another, as these two franchises have quite the history and have met twice the past two seasons.
The first of those two meetings came in the Divisional Round of last year’s playoffs, where the Titans shocked the world by pulling off an upset victory over the Ravens, who were heavy favorites.
Baltimore and Tennessee had a rematch in Week 11 of this season, but the Titans won that game also, 30-24, in overtime.
And that result came with some controversy, as Ravens head coach John Harbaugh was irked by Titans players meeting on Baltimore’s logo before kickoff, leading to a pregame spat.
With the way the Titans have owned the Ravens the past two seasons, there’s no question that Baltimore will have plenty of motivation going into this game. We’ll see if they can return the favor this time around in Nashville.
