5 key matchups for Titans-Bucs in Week 10

Shaun Calderon takes a look at five key matchups for Titans-Buccaneers on Sunday.

The Tennessee Titans are a little more than 24 hours away from a massive showdown with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and we’ve reached the point where it’s essentially now or never for this Titans team.

Realistically, they can only drop one or two games max the rest of the way to make a playoff push, but dropping these types of games against a beatable opponent would most likely be the nail in the Titans’ proverbial coffin.

A loss would also extend the Titans’ road losing streak to more than an entire calendar year. The last time Tennessee won a game away from Nissan Stadium was on Nov. 17, 2022.

The Titans desperately need to change that trend, and sooner rather than later. To do so, they must find a way to win several of the individual matchups that will likely play a big role in determining the outcome of the team matchup.

This article is going to break down five key battles that will surely influence the final score when it’s all said and done. Now, let’s take a look at which specific matchups we’ll be keeping our eyes on come game time.
