This time around, things will be a bit different between these AFC South rivals since Ryan Tannehill and Nick Foles will actually be under center for their respected teams.
While Tannehill has done a phenomenal job over the last month or so after taking over the starting role for Mariota, the Jaguars are beyond excited to have Foles healthy again after the former Super Bowl MVP returned to action last weekend for the first time since Week 1.
Even though both teams currently trail the Houston Texans and Indianapolis Colts at the moment in the division standings, the Titans or Jaguars shouldn’t be ruled out from contention just yet.
Crazier things have taken place in the NFL over the years, but also both Tennessee and Jacksonville realize another loss on Sunday could make any potential playoff run difficult to pull off.
In other words, it may sound like a bit of a stretch to call this game a must-win for either team, but this could arguably be the case for the Titans and Jaguars since time is running out.
