The 2005 Tennessee Titans season was the franchise’s 46th season overall, 36th with the National Football League and ninth in Tennessee. The team attempted to improve upon their previous output of 5–11, but was only able to win four games in 2005.[1] The Titans’ games were often high-scoring, with eight of their sixteen games accumulating in excess of 50 points between the two teams.

This was Steve McNair’s final season as a Titan before getting traded to the Baltimore Ravens following the season.
