The Tennessee Titans were 100 percent outclassed by the Philadelphia Eagles in all phases of the game in Week 13, losing in blowout fashion at Lincoln Financial Field, 35-10.
Making this loss even harder to stomach was the fact that former Titan and current Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown shined with game-highs in receptions (eight) and receiving yards (119), and he had two scores.
The Titans also saw three key players exit early with injuries, including wide receiver Treylon Burks, cornerback Kristian Fulton and linebacker David Long. The amount of injuries the Titans continue to suffer never ceases to amaze.
With the loss, the Titans fall to 7-5 and allow the Indianapolis Colts a chance to inch closer in the division. Tennessee is now 1-4 against teams with a winning record this season, which doesn’t instill much confidence for a playoff run.
Here’s a look at what head coach Mike Vrabel and Titans players had to say about several topics following the loss.
