Oakland Raiders at Tennessee Titans

Marshawn Lynch will get top billing on your TV station, and justifiably so, but the meat of the Titans' defense is up front. Where the Raiders own a distinct advantage over the Titans is in the passing game. Tennessee attempted to upgrade their backend with corner Logan Ryan and first-round pick Adoree Jackson (who could start). Ryan particularly seemed to struggle this preseason. Amari Cooper and Michael Crabtree could be in for big days. While Jackson can match Cooper's speed, the two-time Pro Bowler has a district advantage in height and high-pointing the ball.


The Titans' offense, on the other hand, should have its way with the Raiders' defense. This matchup has all the signs of a potential shootout. Outside of Kahil Mack and the pass rushing front, the Raiders don't appear stout on paper. Tennessee wants to pound the ball, but also provided Marcus Mariota with a major weapons upgrade in the passing game, adding Eric Decker and first-round rookie Corey Davis this year. If the Titans' offensive line can keep Mack off Mariota's back, the third-year quarterback should pick apart the Oakland secondary.


NFL Research stat of the week: The Raiders and Titans went a combined 20-10 with Derek Carr and Marcus Mariota starting in 2016, averaging 25.6 PPG and posting a passer rating of 95.7. Without Carr and Mariota (inc. playoffs): 1-2, 14.7 PPG, 54.8 rating.

One of the biggest reasons why? Per John Lynch,  Jerseys NFL Wholesale , coughing up a high second-rounder for a tryout is not something he'd do. "Honest to God, we need to get him in the playbook, that's where we're going to start, first things first. But I can tell you, second-round picks are very valuable in this league," the 49ers general manager said, "particularly where we are at as an organization, and so this is a guy you want and were willing to give what we thought was a very valuable commodity in exchange for him. So we're excited moving forward that he's going to be a part of our futu...

The Buffalo Bills are trying to keep pace with the New England Patriots atop the AFC East

The Buffalo Bills are trying to keep pace with the New England Patriots atop the AFC East.
