Hotels for New York Jets at Tennessee Titans

A midday kick-off, so the tailgating starts early and the stadium is full by the first snap. Titans crowds are among the most patient in the league and stay with a side through a rebuild rather than turning on it. Expect a good-natured atmosphere, a fair few travelling Jets fans, and a day that carries on down the bar strip long after the whistle.

The franchise began as the Houston Oilers, a charter AFL member from 1960 that won the league's first two championships, before owner Bud Adams relocated the team to Tennessee in 1997 and renamed it the Titans in 1999, a nod to Nashville's classical-architecture nickname 'Athens of the South.' Tennessee reached its only Super Bowl after the 1999 season, losing to the Rams after being stopped agonisingly one yard short on the game's final play.

The Titans are equally remembered for the 'Music City Miracle,' a trick-play kickoff return that won a 2000 playoff game against Buffalo in the closing seconds. Nissan Stadium sits on the banks of the Cumberland River in downtown Nashville.

Home to the Tennessee Titans, Nissan Stadium sits on the east bank of the Cumberland River directly across from downtown Nashville's skyline. A pedestrian bridge puts Broadway's famed live-music bars and restaurants just minutes from the gates on foot, making the walk back after the game part of the night.

Booking a room in downtown Nashville means the city's vibrant honky-tonk district and the stadium are both within walking distance, with no transport required.
