(NFL) Tennessee vs. Jacksonville,
Total: 42.50 | -102.00 Under
Result: Loss
Total: 42.50 | -102.00 Under
Result: Loss
Both of these offenses are under the radar.
The Jaguars are averaging 26 points during their last five games. Blake Bortles has become a playmaker in his second season. Allen Robinson and Allen Hurns each rank among the top 17 in receiving yards, the only receiving tandem in the NFL to rank that high. Hurns has scored a touchdown in each of his last seven games and is expected to play.
The Titans lost their nose tackle, Al Woods, to a high ankle sprain this past Sunday. They also could be down their three top cornerbacks. Jason McCourty definitely is out perhaps for the season. Perrish Cox (hamstring) and Blidi Wreh-Wilson (hamstring) are questionable. They could be limited if they play.
Tennessee's offense is coming around now that Marcus Mariota is healthy and Mike Mularkey is the head coach. He won't hold Mariota back or keep him from running like conservative Ken Whisenhunt did. Quietly, Delaine Walker has emerged as a top-10 tight end. The Titans' ground game has improved, too, with Bishop Sankey getting far less carries.
The Jaguars' run defense is down a notch after losing tackle Sen'Derrick Marks to a torn right triceps this past Sunday. Only two teams give up more points per game than Jacksonville, which surrenders 28.3 per game.
Both offenses won't be holding anything back with the chance of showing themselves off on a rare nationally televised game.
There is a chance of rain for this game, but very little wind.
