5 Tennessee Titans games named 'the least watchable' of 2025 season

When the NFL released the regular season schedule for 2025, many were shocked that the Tennessee Titans would not play any primetime games. While the league's spokesperson outlined the reasoning for this, it was still a bit of an outlier as compared to past league history.
Of course, with no one knowing what to expect from the Titans in 2025, keeping them out of primetime may be the safest way to go for the NFL and the networks, who rely on viewership and advertising as part of their revenue stream.
With many analysts predicting another horrid season ahead, the current excitement could easily disappear if the losses begin to pile up.
Even before the start of the season, multiple Titans matchups have been named among the league's least watchable games. The matrix used analyzed every game, filtering it through an algorithm based on win-loss disparity, Super Bowl odds, and initial point spreads, and then allowed the computers to do their work.
Giants, Browns, Titans Top 'Bottom' List
The New York Giants, Cleveland Browns and Tennessee Titans each appear 5 times on our Top 25 Least Watchable Games list this season.
Three Week 18 games fill out the bottom of the list. The Tennessee Titans game at Jacksonville in Week 18 rates as the least watchable of all the 272 NFL games this season. The Carolina Panthers game across the state of Florida during Week 18 and the in-state rivalry between the Cincinnati Bengals and Cleveland Browns are close behind.
When it's all over, the Titans will join the New York Giants and Cleveland Browns with five games on top of the least watchable games list on their schedule. That includes the league's least watchable game of the season, as released by their computers, the Week 18 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
The other least watchable games are against the Arizona Cardinals (Week 5), Las Vegas Raiders (Week 6), and San Francisco 49ers (Week 15). Ironically, all Titans road games in 2025, an incredible feat for a team that hasn't won a home game in regulation since the 2023 season.
Luckily, there are many things that must still play out before the first snap is taken this year, and things will change across the league. There are still player additions, injuries, and a myriad of other questions that must be answered during training camp before an accurate assessment can be made, especially for a young team like the Titans.
Right now, this should be viewed as more bulletin board material as they prepare for the season.

Tom Brady Calls LeBron James 'The Greatest Ever' In Show Of Respect

Tom Brady Calls LeBron James 'The Greatest Ever' In Show Of Respect originally appeared on Fadeaway World. In a powerful moment at Fanatics Fest in New York City, NFL legend Tom Brady officially threw his support behind LeBron James in the long-standing NBA GOAT debate, calling the Los Angeles Lakers superstar "the greatest ever." Advertisement Brady made the remark during a live episode of The Shop, which featured not just LeBron, but also Victor Wembanyama and popular streamer Kai Cenat. Reflecting on LeBron's career and legacy, Brady didn't hold back in his admiration. 'The pressure and intensity that's been on him in the Olympics, the differnt teams he's been on, and he's always done things the right way. He's always risen above all the noise and the BS and continued to deliver. You're witnessing the greatest ever, and I hope you all appreciate that.' It was a moment of high praise from one generational icon to another one that resonated deeply with fans, especially considering the source. Brady, a seven-time Super Bowl champion and widely accepted as the NFL's GOAT, certainly knows what greatness looks like. That he would acknowledge LeBron as the greatest in basketball carries serious weight. Interestingly, this comes just weeks after Brady raised eyebrows by leaving LeBron off his Mount Rushmore of sports GOATs during a separate appearance. At the time, fans speculated whether it was a simple oversight or a subtle nod toward Michael Jordan. But if there was any doubt about where Brady stands on the NBA GOAT debate, he put that to rest this weekend. Advertisement Brady's comments were not only an endorsement of LeBron's dominance on the court, but also a recognition of how he's handled the immense pressure that has followed him since high school. While Brady was a sixth-round pick who rose to fame through grit and perseverance, LeBron was arguably the most hyped high school athlete in American sports history. Both took very different paths to the top, but they ended up defining their respective sports through relentless excellence and incredible longevity. Brady likely sees much of his own disciplined mindset reflected in LeBron. Despite the pressure, criticism, and constant media scrutiny, James has remained a beacon of consistency for over two decades. Now entering his 23rd NBA season, he continues to perform at an elite level and lead his team, recently pairing with Luka Doncic in a shocking Lakers trade that's reinvigorated the franchise. LeBron has four NBA championships to his name, 10 Finals appearances, and remains the all-time leading scorer in NBA history. And as Brady pointed out, that level of production and professionalism for such an extended period is something truly rare — and worth celebrating while it's still happening. Advertisement Of course, the MJ vs. LeBron debate is far from settled in the minds of fans. But Brady's declaration is sure to stir the pot even further. As one GOAT recognizes another, it's not just flattery, it's legacy confirming legacy. And when Tom Brady calls you 'the greatest ever,' the sports world listens.

See it: New York Giants' Tyrone Tracy training with Eagles' Saquon Barkley

New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. is entering his second year in the NFL, and he's already figuring out that if he wants to be the best, then he needs to learn from the best. With that approach in mind, he's training with Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley. Barkley shared on his Instagram story that the two were working out together, and the comments from Giants fans range from appreciation to disgust. Losing Barkley to the Eagles last year felt like a massive stab in the back to Giants fans, although when you know the whole story, it's hard to blame him for going somewhere they not only agreed to pay him what he's worth, but they also won a Super Bowl. The Giants are nowhere near that right now. Barkley's departure may have put a bad taste in the mouths of Giants' fans, but that doesn't take away from the talent he has or what his capable of doing on the field. The fact that Tracy, who surprised everyone last year by overtaking Devin Singletary for the starting role, wants to work out with Barkley simply means that Tracy wants to learn from the best. And who wouldn't? Giants fans don't have to like who Tracy chose to work out with, but they should appreciate that he wants to improve his game. Barkley can teach him what it takes to be a great running back in the NFL, and while their styles of play differ from each other, their roles on their respective teams are the same. With a new quarterback room and other areas of the field coming together between free agency and the draft, Tracy knows he needs to make an impact in year two and not suffer the 'sophomore slump' that many players endure. So, he's doing everything he can to make sure he can perform at his peak, and this offseason, that meant training with the best running back in the league.
