Tennessee Titans Schedulegami: Opponents Never Faced in Primetime

What is a schedulegami? MockSlate calls it a schedulegami when two teams meet in a scheduling window they’ve never shared before.

The Titans have faced the Chargers 35 times, but never on Monday night. If they were scheduled there, that would be a schedulegami, their first-ever Monday night meeting.

The Titans have never faced 7 of their 31 possible opponents on Monday, Sunday, or Thursday night. Of those 7, four have only ever met Tennessee on a Sunday afternoon. The other three have met in at least one other scheduling window, such as a Saturday or a game abroad.

Tennessee has no schedulegamis on the 2026 schedule.

Titans schedulegami FAQ

What is a schedulegami?
MockSlate calls it a schedulegami when two teams meet in a scheduling window they've never shared before. The Titans have faced the Chargers 35 times, but never on Monday night. If they were scheduled there, that would be a schedulegami, their first-ever Monday night meeting.
How many opponents have the Titans never faced in primetime?
Tennessee has never faced 7 of its 31 possible opponents in primetime. Those teams are the Chargers, Seahawks, Falcons, Vikings, Lions, Cardinals, and Panthers. Counted one window at a time, the Titans have never faced 10 opponents on Monday night, 17 on Sunday night, and 22 on Thursday night; the 7 above are the ones missing from all three.
Which teams have the Titans never played on Monday night?
The Titans have never played the Chargers, Seahawks, Falcons, 49ers, Vikings, Lions, Rams, Cardinals, Buccaneers, and Panthers on Monday night. That's 10 of their 31 possible opponents through the 2025 season.
Which Titans matchups have only happened on Sunday afternoons?
Four Titans matchups have occurred only in Sunday afternoon windows: Seattle, Atlanta, Arizona, and Carolina. All of them are among the 7 opponents Tennessee has never faced in primetime. Nothing on the 2026 schedule changes that.
Which Titans games are schedulegamis in 2026?
None. Every Titans game in 2026 outside a Sunday afternoon is against an opponent they have already met in that window.
What is the difference between a schedulegami and a venue first?
A schedulegami is the first time two teams meet in a scheduling window. A venue first means they have met in that window before, but one team has never hosted it.

About the data

MockSlate calls it a schedulegami when two teams meet in a scheduling window they have never shared before. The order of the two teams does not matter, and neither does the venue: two teams that have only ever met on Sunday night in one city have still met on Sunday night, so the same game in the other city is a venue first, not a schedulegami. Sunday afternoon windows never count. A game counts in every window it fits, so a Monday night game in Mexico City is both a Monday night game and an international game. Primetime here means Monday, Sunday, and Thursday night. Two levels are tracked: the first time two teams meet in one window, and the first time they meet anywhere but a Sunday afternoon.

Game history is the same record as Primetime & Holiday History, regular season only, with franchises carried forward under their current names; Monday night counts every Monday game the way that tool counts it. Coverage by window: Monday night: since 1970, every Monday game as Slot History counts it; Sunday night: since 1987; Thursday night: all Thursday games since 1966 as Slot History counts them; the first non-Thanksgiving Thursday game in the data is 1978; the weekly package began in 2006; Thanksgiving: since 1966; Christmas: since 1966; Saturday: since 1966; Kickoff Game: since 2002; International: since 2005; Friday: since 1966; Wednesday: all-time. A Sunday international game with a verified 8 PM ET or later kickoff counts as International and Sunday night; two games count, the 2005 49ers at Cardinals game in Mexico City and the 2026 Vikings at 49ers game in Mexico City. Schedulegami is a MockSlate term, first published September 2026.
