The Tennessee Titans looked absolutely brutal against the New York Jets last week, and honestly, their Week Two matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles is set up to be even worse. There’s just no way around it. The Eagles are a significantly better team than the Jets, and there’s zero reason to expect anything different this Sunday.

Eagles Ready To Dominate

I wish I could find a silver lining for the Titans here, but I just can’t. The Eagles are coming off a 24-22 win against the Washington Commanders on September 13, and they’ve got that momentum. Meanwhile, the Titans were a mess last week. The forecast for Sunday’s game in Philadelphia isn’t doing them any favors either; it’s going to be a blazing 100 degrees, and Lincoln Financial Field will be absolutely packed with Eagles fans. That sounds like a long, miserable afternoon for anyone rooting for Tennessee.

Betting Against Hope

FanDuel Sportsbook has the line at Titans +7, and frankly, that feels laughably low. If you’re a betting person, you should seriously consider an alternate line all the way up to Eagles -10. The odds on that would probably be pretty sweet, and it just makes sense given what we saw last week. My gut tells me the Eagles are going to light up the scoreboard early and often. The Titans offense will likely do basically nothing through the first three quarters, just like they did against the Jets.

Expect a garbage-time touchdown to make the final score look a tiny bit less awful, just like last week. My prediction? Eagles 31, Titans 10. Seriously, can anyone out there come up with a single positive thing the Titans might be able to pull off in this game? I’m all ears, but I’m not holding my breath.
