What to Know
The Tennessee Titans are 9-2 against the Jacksonville Jaguars since October of 2016, and they’ll have a chance to extend that success next Sunday. Tennessee’s bye week comes to an end as they meet up with Jacksonville at 1 p.m. ET at Nissan Stadium. Neither team wants a repeat from their last game since each was dealt a considerable loss.
A win for the Titans just wasn’t in the stars last week as the team never even grasped a temporary lead. They found themselves the reluctant recipients of an unpleasant 36-13 punch to the gut against the New England Patriots. This game was a close 16-13 at the break, but unfortunately for Tennessee it sure didn’t stay that way. Tennessee’s defeat came about despite a quality game from RB Dontrell Hilliard, who rushed for one TD and 131 yards on 12 carries. That touchdown — a 68-yard rush in the second quarter — was one of the highlights of the matchup.
Meanwhile, Jacksonville was expected to have a tough go of it on Sunday, and that’s exactly how things played out. They suffered a grim 37-7 defeat to the Los Angeles Rams. Jacksonville was down 30-7 at the end of the third quarter, which was just too much to recover from. QB Trevor Lawrence wasn’t much of a difference maker for the Jaguars; Lawrence passed for only 145 yards on 28 attempts.
The losses put the Titans at 8-4 and Jacksonville at 2-10. A pair of offensive stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: Tennessee ranks fourth in the league when it comes to rushing touchdowns, with 17 on the season. Less enviably, Jacksonville is worst in the NFL in passing touchdowns, with only nine on the season.
