NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The Tennessee Titans have reached the midpoint of a miserable, not good and just plain ugly season with a chance to rest.

There may be no team in the NFL that needs its bye more.

The Titans are tied with New Orleans for the NFL's worst record at 1-8, losing four straight for the worst start through nine games since relocating to Tennessee in 1997.

It's the worst start for this franchise since the then-Houston Oilers lost 14 of their first 15 games before a 2-14 finish in 1994.

Their lone win came thanks to Arizona's mistakes. Coach Brian Callahan tried to keep his job by handing over offensive play-calling duties to quarterbacks coach Bo Hardegree three games into the season, buying himself three more games before being fired.
