"I cannot have any doubts. I can't flinch," Marinelli said. "I owe these men every once of energy I have. I'm getting up and going to work enthusiastically."
NFL Picks: The Titans did lose, but they also played one of their worst games all season. Maybe the pressure finally got to them. Bo Scafe dropped a pass on third down that would have been a huge first down, they couldn't do anything after Finnigen's pick, and the Johnson fumble killed them. All this happened early before the game was put away. No disrespect to the Jets, they played a great game and beat them. However, if these teams meet again in the playoffs, it could be a different story. Over is 8-0-1 in Lions last 9 vs. a team with a winning record.
