NFL THURSDAY
Millionaires---Tennessee
Tennessee has played decent, competitive the past two weeks. They defeated the Saints and then played ok football for 3 quarters against Carolina last week. On the other side, the Jags won a game against the Eagles that turns out should have been a loss, admitted yesterday by the NFL. Emotionally, you have one team playing with an array of confidence vs a team knowing that the only way they can win is with the refs giving it to them. Great teams will run with the fact that everything is going right for themselves. Bad teams continue to doubt. That gift win did not pump them up. Interim Tennessee Coach Mike Mularkey is going up against the team that fired him. That should not be a storyline by returning to Jacksonville unless his team really wants him to move forward as their coach. Rookie running back David Cobb is off the injured list and his rushing should accompany Marcus Mariota's passing. They must established the run in this game. Jacksonville has a slew of injuries of which they can not afford. Jags RB, T J Yeldon, will be limited if he even is able to play. For Jacksonville to be favored in this game after Tennessee proved they can win on the road with that Saints victory is absurd. The Titans are the better team all around. This is your Holiday gift one week prior to Thanksgiving day. TAKE TENNESSEE
