ROGERS' 10* NFL NON-CONFERENCE GAME OF THE WEEK!
(NFL) Tennessee vs. Philadelphia,
Point Spread: -4.50 | -110.00 Philadelphia (Home)
Result: Win
The Titans face the Eagles, who are 4-1 at home, and on the rebound from a few weeks of indifferent play. Their biggest concern is the alarming number of points they allowed against the Commanders and Packers. They are healthier this week and face a Titans team that does not put up a ton of points nor yards, nor do they control time of possession like the Commanders. The Titans' offense is usually all about Henry and the run game, but that has not been the case lately. The Titans have managed to rush for just 71 yards on average in their last three games, while running the ball just 42% of the game. Tannehill has thrown the ball well over 100 yards more than the Titans' average, has been accurate and better protected in that time. Facing the Eagles, the Titans might be better resorting to plan A, unless their is some issue with Henry.
The Eagles are just 18th vs the run but 2nd in passing yards allowed. They will get to Tannehill (3rd in sacks)and are best in the league in takeaways. As for the Eagles offense, this may be the game when we see Hurts return to his passing game. In spite of the enormous success with the running game last week, the Eagles face a Titans team that is tough vs the run but 31st in passing yards allowed. Let's not forget that the Eagles can be very good in the air, with the best offense in the red zone, and are 3rd in third down conversions.
I've been on the Titans often this season with success, but I am afraid that they are catching an Eagles team on the upswing. Henry's lack of success is troubling, and the Titans have some significant injuries this week. Look for a better defensive game from the Eagles and for Hurts to do what ever is required for victory. Take the Eagles to win and cover.
