Jets Struggles Expected To Continue With Visit To Nashville
We learned last Sunday that the New York Jets haven’t packed it in for the season, but that doesn’t matter much when looking ahead to their Week 13 matchup.
The New York Jets are listed as +8 underdogs on the road this Sunday at Nissan Stadium vs. the Tennessee Titans.
The New York Jets (3-8) are coming off a 27-13 loss at MetLife Stadium to the New England Patriots.
Competitive throughout a game that saw them tied 10-10 at the half and 13-13 midway through the third quarter, New York’s offense led by 39-year-old backup Josh McCown couldn’t match Tom Brady and the Patriots offense point for point.
If there was a point of disapproval to be taken with New York’s performance, it was the fact they allowed 213 rushing yards and nearly 500 yards of offense in what was their fifth consecutive defeat.
The Tennessee Titans (5-6) are coming off a 34-17 loss on Monday night to the Houston Texans at NRG Stadium.
For the second consecutive week, the Tennessee Titans defense was gashed by another division rival as Tennessee couldn’t slow Houston’s rushing attack, allowing a season-high 281 rushing yards.
They didn’t fare much better against the pass, allowing Deshaun Watson to complete 79 percent of his passes for 210 passing yards and two touchdowns.
The last time these two teams faced off was back in Week 14 of the 2015 season when New York battered Marcus Mariota and the Tennessee Titans 30-8 at MetLife Stadium.
Ryan Fitzpatrick had the hot hand for the New York Jets as he threw for 263 passing yards and three touchdowns on the day.
New York’s defense got after Marcus Mariota, sacking him five times and intercepting him once as they limited Tennessee’s offense to 292 yards.
