Titans vs. Browns: TV Schedule, Live Streaming, Radio, Game Time and More

The Tennessee Titans and Cleveland Browns may have both won in Week 3, but they may be headed in different directions.

The Titans have won their last two games, including a big win against the Baltimore Ravens, but they just lost their star receiver Kenny Britt and don't have anyone to step into his place right now.

The Browns, who lost to the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 1, have won their last two games against the Indianapolis Colts and Miami Dolphins. They also have star running back Peyton Hillis coming back from strep throat.

What's at Stake?

The Tennessee Titans and Cleveland Browns are both off to strong starts, and as of now they are in the playoff hunt. But the overall sentiment is that they aren't playoff-bound teams. They should have their fair share of losses against top teams, so losing games like this will only further push them back. Teams like these need to win the games that are winnable, and both teams have a shot at beating each other in Week 4.

Fantasy—Start 'Em, Sit 'Em and Sleeper

Start 'Em: Nate Washington, WR, Titans

With Britt's injury, Titans No. 2 receiver is going to receive more looks from quarterback Matt Hasselbeck. In Week 3, he racked up eight catches for 92 yards and a touchdown. He'll be the Titans' No. 1 receiver for the rest of the year and stands to put up some big numbers based on Britt's absence.

Sit 'Em: Colt McCoy, QB, Cleveland Browns

The Browns may have defeated the Dolphins in Week 3, 17-16, but McCoy wasn't at his best, completing under 50 percent of his throws for 210 yards. He faces a strong Titans' secondary in Week 4 that has allowed just 172 passing yards per game and a total of three passing touchdowns. I don't see this being a great game for McCoy.

Sleeper: Peyton Hillis, RB, Browns

The Titans have also been strong against the run this season, and Hillis is coming back from strep throat, so some may be skeptical. But don't forget that Hillis rushed for over 1,100 yards last season and 11 touchdowns, as well as adding 477 receiving yards. In Week 2 against the Colts, he racked up 94 rushing yards and two touchdowns. Behind this O-line, Hillis always has the chance to explode. 

What They're Saying

Browns rookie receiver Greg Little:

"

“I think the greatest statistics in this league are wins and losses. I don’t think [McCoy] cares about his completion percentage. You win the game, so that’s all our team cares about anyway. He just stayed composed and made a lot of good plays. He was just very vibrant and upbeat and you could see that pouring out of him in his eyes. He made it happen for us.”

"

McCoy may not be a good fantasy option, but he has shown he can lead the Browns the last two seasons. The Browns still trust he will lead them to the promised land some day and he's showing signs every game of growing as a quarterback. He's looking like he could be their franchise quarterback.

Titans quarterback Matt Hasselbeck:

"

"Personally from the day I got here, he was one of the guys that I really tried to invest a lot of my time and energy into. He's probably the most talented player on this team at any position, and he could be really special. I think he's showed glimpses of that, and he was really on fire and off to a great start. So for me, all that work, all that investment is going to have to wait."

"

Hasselbeck only echoes the overall sentiment in Tennessee, that the Titans have lost a special player in Kenny Britt for the season. Hasselbeck completed a pass to 11 different receivers on Sunday against the Broncos and he's going to have to play in a similar manner if the Titans have a shot this season.

Titans Player to Watch: Chris Johnson

The Titans will have to rely on star running back Chris Johnson more than ever now that they've lost a critical piece of their passing attack. He's averaging a mere 2.1 yards per carry and is going to have to get back on track for the Titans to make a season out of this. It's time for him to live up to that big contract in the offseason.

Browns Player to Watch: Colt McCoy

With each passing game, McCoy gives us a glimpse of what he could become down the line. Every game is a chance for him to improve, impress and, above all, learn the game. He's young, but he's shown some great signs so far of becoming a legitimate starting quarterback in the NFL. Matched up against a strong Titans secondary, he's going to have to be on point on Sunday.

Key Matchup: Chris Johnson vs. Browns rush defense

The Browns are giving up 4.0 yards per carry so far, around the middle of the league. They also have 11 sacks already, good for third in the NFL. That means the Titans need Johnson even more with a Browns pass rush closing in on Hasselbeck. This is a big opportunity for Johnson and the Titans in a winnable game.

Prediction: Browns 20, Titans 17
