Eagles vs. Titans Game Preview: 6 questions and answers with the Week 2 enemy
bleedinggreennation.com • • sports
Key Points:
- The Tennessee Titans are facing high concern after their Week 1 loss to the Jets, with local sentiment rating the panic level at a 10 due to poor performance across offense, defense, and special teams.
- Titans quarterback Cam Ward is expected to struggle again, as he showed discomfort in the pocket and missed many easy throws last week, despite improvements in coaching and offensive weapons.
- Key under-the-radar Titans players to watch include rookie linebacker Anthony Hill, Jr., who impressed with 16 tackles in Week 1, and second-year receiver Elic Ayomanor, the team's only touchdown scorer last game.
- The Titans would benefit most from acquiring Eagles running back Saquon Barkley to support their young quarterback, as their current back, Tony Pollard, lacks big-play ability.
- The game is heavily favored for the Eagles, with a predicted score of 31-10, due to advantages like Jeffery Simmons' interior pass rush against a backup offensive line and Vic Fangio's defensive scheme likely to confuse Ward.
