Titans vs. Kansas: Sunday night’s matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Tennessee Titans two of the best teams in the AFC will see the Titans going for their sixth straight victory.
On Sunday, the Chiefs (5-2) will host the Titans (5-1). They will play at Arrowhead Stadium (7:20 p.m., NBC). With quarterback Ryan Tannehill’s status still up in the air after he missed last week’s game and several practice days this week due to a nagging ankle ailment, there is a lot of mystery around the Titans’ offensive game plan.
If Tannehill can’t play, third-round pick Malik Willis will start in his place, as he did against the Houston Texans.
The Chiefs have the league’s best scoring offence, average yards per game and yards per play as they head into this weekend’s games. During the Titans’ current five-game winning streak, their defence has been superb, helping them rise to the top of the NFL in third-down defence and the top two in rushing defence.
Patrick Mahomes, the quarterback for Kansas City, has a knack for finding holes in otherwise formidable run defences. He leads the NFL in touchdown passes and is in the league’s top three in passing yards, yards per pass attempt and passer rating. Read about Titans vs. Kansas match details below:
WILLIS OR TANNEHILL? The Titans of Tennessee have the poorest offence in the NFL. Is it more likely to be fixed by Ryan Tannehill or Malik Willis?
The Titans seem to have Mahomes and the Chiefs’ number, as they have won their last two regular-season meetings (in 2019 and 2021). The Titans’ three-point performance against the Chiefs in 2021 was the only time the Chiefs had been kept to single digits in a regular season game during the Mahomes era.
