The Minnesota Vikings and Tennessee Titans head into tonight’s NFL preseason schedule football game with their starting quarterbacks already in place, and now their backups will get the opportunity to make their case for who should be the number two man on each roster. The Vikings have named Matt Cassel their starter over rookie Teddy Bridgewater, while the Titans will be turning to Jake Locker this season. Tonight’s game will air on some TV channels and also live online.

Teddy Bridgewater made a fairly strong case to become the Minnesota starting quarterback as a rookie, but the veteran Cassel ultimately beat him out for the job despite the fact that the rookie had the better performance of the two last week against Kansas City. Either way, the Vikings offense will continue to be centered around star running back Adrian Petersen, if he can stay healthy and remain on the field. Jake Locker has looked strong enough for Tennessee this preseason to hold off some strong flashes from rookie Zack Mettenberger, who should see significant playing action in tonight’s final exhibition game.

Tonight’s Minnesota Vikings at Tennessee Titans NFL preseason football game has a start time schedule of 8:00pm eastern time, 7:00pm local Nashville time, and will air on local network TV channels in the Tennessee and Minnesota television markets - though it won’t be on national television. The game will also air live online at NFL.com.

Atlanta Falcons vs Tennessee Titans game: score, schedule

The Atlanta Falcons and Tennessee Titans went into tonight’s crucial third NFL preseason schedule game both looking for answers, though of a very different kind. Atlanta got blown out against the Texans and didn’t look particularly good at any position, and had some soul searching to do before tonight’s game. Tennessee has a different sort of problem: both their quarterbacks have played well, giving them a potential QB controversy. The final score was decided by seven points.

The Titans are still hoping Jake Locker will emerge into the quarterback they thought they were drafting a few years back, and tonight he may have locked down the starting job. He went 12 for 17 with a touchdown score with a passer rating of 126. Tennessee rookie Zack Metterberger played adequately, going 11 for 19 with no touchdowns or interceptions, meaning the job is almost certainly Locker’s to lose this year. The Falcons saw Matt Ryan bounce back in a strong way, going 18 for 23 with two touchdown scores in extended action.

In the end the Tennessee Titans were the winner thanks to two unanswered fourth quarter scores over the Atlanta Falcons, by a final score of 24-17. The next game on the Titans schedule is at home against the Minnesota Vikings on Thursday night, while the next game on the schedule for the Falcons is at the Jacksonville Jaguars, also on Thursday night.

New Orleans Saints vs Tennessee Titans game tonight: score, schedule

The New Orleans Saints and the Tennessee Titans faced off tonight in their second NFL preseason game on the 2014 schedule, with one team still yet to unleash its Pro Bowl quarterback and the other team hoping its muddled quarterback situation becomes more clear. Drew Brees never did play for the Saints tonight, but his backups both looked strong and threw for two touchdown scores apiece. And the Titans saw a phenomenal performance from one of their passers.

Titans rookie Zack Mettenberger was 20 or 25 for two touchdowns and one interception in extended playing time in tonight’s game. He might have made some progress toward wresting away the starting job, if not for the fact that incumbent Jake Locker looked strong himself in his brief stint, also completing eighty percent of his passes for Tennessee. The Saints saw Ryan Griffin and Luke McCown both make a strong statement for the number two job. In the end tonight’s game wasn’t as close as its seven point score differential indicated.

The New Orleans Saints were the winner over the Tennessee Titans by a final score of 31-24 despite a late touchdown by the Titans with ten seconds left. The next game on the Saints schedule is at the Indianapolis Colts on Saturday night, while the next scheduled Tennessee game is at the Atlanta Falcons, also on Saturday night.

Green Bay Packers vs Tennessee Titans game: score, schedule

The Green Bay Packers and the Tennessee Titans faced off in their first preseason NFL football game on the schedule tonight in which one team is trying to get its All Pro pieces to gel and the other is looking for a fresh start with a new head coach. Ken Whisenhunt takes over the reins from Mike Munchak in Nashville, and tonight will be his first on-field action in that capacity. In the end, the game was decided by a late touchdown and a four point score.

Green Bay sat Aaron Rodgers and instead featured backup quarterbacks Scott Tolzien, who performed well with a passer rating of one hundred, and Matt Flynn who had a more pedestrian night for the Packers. Tennessee gave limited playing time to Jake Locker and rookie Zach Mettengberger, both of whom failed to make an impression, as Charlie Whitehurst looked strong for the Titans.

The Tennessee Titans were the winners over the Green Bay Packers by a final score of 20-16. The next game on the Packers schedule is at the St Louis Rams on Saturday afternoon, while the next game on the schedule for the Titans is at the New Orleans Saints on Friday night.
