Look, we aren’t surprised the majority of those picking games are going with Tennessee, but 82% of the pickers? Both teams enter this game with a slew of injuries. The Titans are a different team offensively without star wideout A.J. Brown but could have their best passing game of the season against Washington’s struggling cornerbacks.

However, the Tennessee defense isn’t the same unit from a year ago. The Commanders will have opportunities to put points on the board against the Titans. Will they? That’s another story.

This game is winnable for Washington, which has a short week. The Commanders travel to Chicago to play the Bears for Thursday Night Football.
