I don't think you can ever pick against the Rams receivers. The advantage has to go to Isaac Bruce, Torry Holt, Az-Zahir Hakim and Ricky Proehl simply because they will be playing on a fast surface.
The Rams wideouts haven't been contained all year, except last week against Tampa Bay, which plays predominantly zone coverage. Playing against the Titans, who prefer playing single coverage on the outside, the Rams will have a shot at a lot of big plays.
I really like the Titans secondary, which has played outstanding in the playoffs. Anthony Dorsett, while not an experienced hitter like Marcus Robertson, is a better cover man at free safety. But if given enough chances, the Rams will move the football with their passing game and score points.
It all depends on how each team feels Sunday. Titans cornerback Samari Rolle might beat Bruce a few times, but Bruce will win a few as well. The difference is that when Bruce wins against man-to-man coverage, it could result in touchdowns for St. Louis.
