Lions Players To Watch:
Offense: Running Back – Jahmyr Gibbs
The Lions will face a tough defense in the Titans despite their record they rank seventh in the NFL is average yards allowed per game which is 105.5 yards. Gibbs however averages 102 yards per game rushing and receiving. With Jameson Williams out this week for Detroit Gibbs will be relied upon heavily.
Defense: Linebacker – Alex Anzalone
Anzalone is the leader of this defense which has looked against the run game and is figuring things out against the pass. He faces a Titans offense that ranks 31st in all of football in average yards per game with 259.2, look for him to be all over the field shutting down this Titans offense.
Bottom Line: Can’t Fall for the Trap
This week could be considered a trap game against a struggling Tennessee Titans team, especially with a divisional game coming up against the Green Bay Packers and a game against a tough Houston Texans team but they need to handle business here and find the weaknesses in the Titans defense, come away with a win heading into next weekends big matchup.
