Titans’ reasons for optimism, concern going into Week 13

The Titans have plenty of reasons for concern ahead of a Week 13 matchup against the Eagles.

The Tennessee Titans are facing the unenviable task of having to go into Lincoln Financial Field in Week 13 to take on a team with the NFL’s best record, the Philadelphia Eagles.

After reeling off eight-straight wins to start the season, the Eagles dropped their first game to the Washington Commanders in Week 10 but have since bounced back with a pair of victories to move to 10-1.

Meanwhile, the Titans are coming off a tough loss to the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 12, but Tennessee remains in firm control of the AFC South and is now more focused on playoff seeding than anything else.

If the Titans want to be serious contenders in the playoffs, they have to start beating the best of the best, something the team has yet to do in 2022 after thriving in those situations in the regular season in recent years.

The Eagles are the Titans’ latest test, and with that test comes plenty of reasons for concern.
