They've announced the announcement, and finally the announcement announced the time when the 2014 NFL schedule will be released.  We don't know much about it yet, but we do know which teams will be facing the Titans in the upcoming season.

Home Opponents:
Browns
Cowboys
Giants
Jets
Steelers
Texans
Jaguars
Colts

Away Opponents:
Ravens
Bengals
Chiefs
Eagles
Redskins
Texans
Jaguars
Colts

The question every year is how many games will we have that aren't played at 12:00 p.m. central time? Judging from the opponents that aren't in the division, there won't be many (maybe 0) games played at 3:05 or 3:15 this season.  they aren't playing any west coast teams (home or away) and should stay at the 12:00 time-slot unless they get flexed late in the season.

Another question asked is when the BYE week will be.  I always thought there was a formula to figure out when a team's bye week will be.  I've done some research, and I can't find anything to support this theory.  A good bye week for NFL teams is somewhere in between weeks 6 and 8. That gives them a good midway point break from the start of the preseason to the end of the season.  The bye week will be unveiled tomorrow.

The ultimate question everyone has about the NFL schedule is when their team will be playing in prime time.  The Titans had a 7-9 record last season and are a small market team, which doesn't fare well with the league in terms of highlight games.  They are playing some well-recognized teams such as the Ravens, Eagles, Chiefs, Cowboys, Jets, Steelers, and Giants which will give them a better chance of playing under the lights more than once in 2014.  Expect no more than two games in prime time, though.  Don't be surprised if both of them are away games.

We are all excited about tomorrow night's big announcements.  Titans fans, don't get too excited.  Like every other mediocre year, expect mediocre to bad scheduled games.  Don't expect to be respected by the league in a small market.  Not to mentioned, the Titans lost any star power they held when they released Chris Johnson earlier this month.
