NFL Week 15, 2018: 5 Teams on upset alert
By Dan Parzych
2. Tennessee Titans
The Tennessee Titans have been one of the most difficult teams to figure out in the NFL this season since one week they seem capable of being a top contender in the AFC, only to look like a pretender the next. Just look at what they were able to accomplish last week when defeating the Jacksonville Jaguars, as the this team seemed determined to do whatever it takes to squeeze into the playoffs.
If that’s going to happen, Derrick Henry and Marcus Mariota will need to be playing some of their best football over these final few weeks, including this Sunday when they take on the New York Giants. A few months ago, this seemed like a game that would result in an easy win for Tennessee, but the circumstances are much different now.
When seeing how the Giants have found new life over the last couple of weeks, there’s nothing they would love more than to continue winning games to help end the season on a high note to give them a little boost of confidence for 2019. And if the Titans aren’t careful, the Giants could win for the fifth time in six games to make their path to a playoff spot a little more difficult to accomplish.
