The New Orleans Saints and Tennessee Titans are days away from their Week 16 kickoff, and it’s an important game for all involved. Some players — like Saints running back Alvin Kamara — need the opportunity to reassert themselves as NFL stars. Others, such as Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill, could really benefit from a strong day to cement their status as more than a flash in the pan.

And that’s just the individual performances to worry about. This game is rife with playoff implications for both the NFC and the AFC. If the Saints lose, it’ll be almost impossible for them to earn a top-two seed and the bye week that comes with it. If the Titans lose, they run the risk of getting eliminated from the playoffs altogether. Both sides are going to take this one very seriously, and it’ll come down to who can win more individual matchups across the field on Sunday. Here are six battles worth watching.

Titans CB A.J. Brown vs. Saints CB Marshon Lattimore

Brown has been one of the NFL’s breakout stars this season, averaging over 19 yards per catch and consistently getting behind defenses for big gains. Lattimore has bounced back from some early-season struggles and a mid-season hamstring injury to perform like one of the best cover corners in the league. This all sets up for a collision between two of the NFL’s brightest young stars.
