It's not the first time something like this has been done. Tennessee Titans coach Jeff Fisher has also recorded messages for fans before big games, and former Pittsburgh Steelers coach Bill Cowher often urged them to make it rough on opponents during televised press conferences.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -Steve Slaton, consider yourself warned. The Tennessee Titans do not like allowing 100-yard rushers - ever. After watching Slaton do it against them twice in 2008, the Houston running back has a very big target on his back now. It's a matter of pride. ``That wasn't good, especially as good as our defense was last year ... stopping the run,'' Titans defensive end Kyle Vanden Bosch said Wednesday. ``We know what type of challenge we have. It is a pride thing, and I don't know how many |

And while Tomlin's response was to dismiss the '06 season as a thing of the past, something that had nothing to do with the '09 squad, Thursday's season-opening 13-10 overtime win over the Tennessee Titans probably could have gone a little smoother. In front of the largest regular-season crowd ever at Heinz Field -- 65,110 gold and black wearing fans -- Roethlisberger had to orchestrate his 18th come-from-behind-victory since 2004.

In that game, New Orleans quarterback Drew Brees led a 532-yard offensive assault, and it's hard to dismiss the notion that the hiring of Schwartz - previously the ultra-successful defensive coordinator of the Tennessee Titans - was a reaction to that humbling. Not that the Saints' torching of the Lions defense was an isolated incident. The Lions allowed 517 points during the 2008 season, the second-most in NFL history. But on Sunday, fewer eyes will be on the Lions' reva |

Coach Gary Kubiak's team was a surging 5-1 in its final five games of last season, knocking off the postseason-bound Tennessee Titans and spoiling the post-Christmas hopes of the Chicago Bears along the way. Upheaval on the defensive side of things has marked the 2008-09 offseason, with free agents Shaun Cody (tackle) and Antonio Smith (end) now in the fold along with non-offensiv |

PITTSBURGH (AP) -Tennessee Titans wide receiver Nate Washington warmed up without apparent problems despite a hamstring injury and was in uniform for Thursday night's season opener against the Pittsburgh Steelers, his former team. Washington left the Super Bowl champions after last season to sign with the Titans, who were seeking a deep receiving threat. Deactivated for the Titans was tight end Jared Cook, a third-round draft pick from Florida who aggravated an ankle injury during practice. As expected |
