The NFL Playoff race is in full swing and the Tennessee Titans are clinging to life support looking for a win over the LA Rams.

Tennessee Titans Quarterback Marcus Mariota has had a season filled with injury and lack of Wide Receiver help, but he has his team in the hunt for a spot in the Playoffs as slim as it may be. With two weeks to go in the season, the Titans face the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday. LA can claim the NFC West with a win vs Tennessee. Both teams have something to play for.

While Marcus Mariota has struggled the strong point of the Titans Offense has been the ground game. DeMarco Murray and Derrick Henry have led the way. Each has 5 touchdowns on the year with Henry having slightly better numbers. The Titans Offense has been hampered by Mariota and a lingering leg injury. He played through it the last few weeks and the results have not gone well for the Tennessee Titans.

The 10-4 Los Angeles Rams already have a 1000 yard rusher in Todd Gurley. Stopping the LA Rushing Attack will be key to getting the win.

For the 8-6 Tennessee Titans, Delanie Walker is the Wide Receiver to watch. If he has a big day, it could mean a win for the Titans. Mariota has struggled of late. Jared Goff has thrown 24 touchdowns, which is where the former Oregon Quarterback could be if it weren’t for more interceptions in 2017 than touchdowns.

Mariota has thrown 12 touchdowns and 14 interceptions and the blame on the problem has been pointed at everything from the Offensive System, the Offensive Line, Coaching, Bad Receivers, and even Mariota himself.
