Getting ready, having fun Titans gameplan for Jags, still have time to play

Tennessee Titans cornerback Samari Rolle, a second-year player out of Florida State, will do a daily diary for CNNSI.com throughout the AFC Championship game. He talked with CNNSI.com's John Donovan on Thursday afternoon. NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Today, we did third-down gameplans for Jacksonville and watched the films from the last game we played against them -- the last couple games. That was the work. We had some fun, too. We cracked jokes, all day long, as usual. And I've been taking heat for these bumps I have on my forehead [Rolle sported a big bandage on his forehead all Thursday]. I think it's from my helmet. I'm starting to break out. It's not nerves. I know that. But everybody's pretty much older than me, so they look at me like a little kid around here. I got stuff about [the bumps] being acne, things like that. But that's all right. Our gameplan this week is pretty much the same. We just have to concentrate on different guys hurting us, week in and week out. We don't change for anybody, really. I've had some success against this team [all four of Rolle's interceptions this season have been against the Jaguars], but I'm really not even thinking about the last two games, or what I did in them. They don't mean anything. We're going to their field, everything's in their favor, basically, and no one thinks we can win. So the other games don't mean anything. There's a lot of talk about there being bad blood between us and the Jaguars, but I think we look at the Jaguars as a team in the way of what we're trying to accomplish. It's as simple as that. We know what's at stake. But nobody's tight or anything, 'cause nobody expected us to be here. So we're just having fun, and we're just glad to have the opportunity to be playing.
