• Vote: Pick the winners of all 16 games in Week 1 of the NFL season.

We're not Adam Schefter, so we don't have the inside scoop on what's going on behind the scenes around the league. We're not Scouts Inc., so we can't break down what effect the Steelers' X stunt blitz will have against Kerry Collins.

But like you, we'll be watching when the Steelers and Titans kick off the NFL season Thursday night. And a lack of expertise has never stopped us from wondering about the big issues, like whether going against reformed tequila aficionado LenDale White will worsen Pittsburgh's Super Bowl hangover.

So here are five questions we're pondering about Thursday's game.

• Would you rather have Mike Tomlin's ring or Jeff Fisher's experience?
• Is Titans No. 2 LenDale White better than any Steelers running back?
• Which team has a tougher road ahead in its division?
• In a battle of teams known for defense, which unit is better?

Think the Titans will have 15,000 fans in the Steeler stands on Thursday, like our fans did them last year? I don't think so!

Anybody realize the last 7 games between PIT and TEN the winner has had 30+pts... weird for two teams where defense comes before offense

wow, i have never seen so much trash talking from such a pathetic fanbase like the titans... with the way they're running their mouths, u'd think THEY were the greatest team in NFL history and THEY were the ones who just came off a super bowl win. talk about a wannabe...
